Kawasaki 840067 Cordless Saw User Manual


 
ACCESSORIES
Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.
Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on
another tool.
Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.
If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry
the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi-
ence a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge
number, the heavier the cord (see table below).

BEVEL OR ANGLE CUTTING
The jigsaw baseplate can be tilted
from 0º to 45º for making bevel or
angled cuts.
1. Make sure the trigger is fully released
and not in the locked-on position.
Unplug the power cord from the AC
power source.
2. Turn the jigsaw over so the baseplate
faces up. Using the 3 mm hexwrench,
loosen the two hex socket -head
screws attaching the baseplate.
3. Rotate the baseplate to the desired
angle. There markings for 0º and 45º.
If another angle is desired, line up the
baseplate to a protractor using the
jigsaw blade as reference.
4. When the proper angle is obtained,
securely tighten the two hex socket-
head screws with the hexwrench.
Make sure the roller guide is placed
back against the blade.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
CLEANING: To avoid accidents, be sure to disconnect the
tool from the electrical power source before any cleaning or maintenance.
The tool can be cleaned by using compressed dry air. If compressed air is not
available, a soft natural bristle paint brush will work. Always wear safety gog-
gles when cleaning tools with compressed air.
Avoid using certain cleaning agents and solvents.
Chemicals like gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, acetone, paint thinner or ammo-
nia products can damage the plastic parts of the tool.
