Hex wrench storage
004035
When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the
figure to keep it from being lost.

OPERATION

CAUTION:
Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line
gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result in
overheating the motor and dangerous kickback,
possibly causing severe injury.
Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece
to be cut without the blade making any contact. Then turn
the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed. Now
simply move the tool forward over the workpiece surface,
keeping it flat and advancing slowly until the sawing is
completed. To get clear cuts, keep your sawing line
straight and your speed of advancing uniform.

Rip fence (Guide rule)

004037
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against
the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with
the screw on the front of the base. It also makes repeated
cuts of uniform width possible.

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.

Replacing carbon brushes

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly.
Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep
the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders.
Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same
time. Use only identical carbon brushes.
Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take
out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and
secure the brush holder caps.
