" Cordless Trim Saw
OPERATION
Removing and Installing Blades:
1. Remove the Battery.
2. Remove the 4mm Allen ® wrench from
the left hand side of the trim saw
body. Insert the wrench into the blade
retaining screw located at the center
of the blade.
3. Depress and hold the black button
located between the blade guard and
the handle grip. Slowly turn the
wrench counter-clockwise, (viewed
from the end of the screw) until the
black button depresses further and
the blade is locked.
4. Remove the screw and washer.
Retract the blade guard. Note the ori-
entation of the teeth. They are point-
ed at the saw base at the leading
edge. Be careful to avoid touching the
saw teeth and slip the blade out of the
saw.
Fig 6. Installing blade.
Always remove battery from unit
before changing the blade, adjusting
or servicing. Failure to observe this
fundamental rule will result in serious
personal injury.
Before starting Trim Saw, insure the
wrench has been removed from the
cap screw on the arbor. If not
removed, the wrench could be pro-
pelled into the air and may cause
serious personal injury.
Trim saw blades are sharp. Use care
when handling. Blades may cut or
nick fingers or hands causing lacera-
tions, disfigurement or disability.
5. Insure the teeth on the new blade are
in the correct orientation and place
the blade on the arbor, then the
washer and screw. Tighten the screw
(in a clockwise rotation) while
depressing the black button previous-
ly mentioned.
6. Install the 4mm Allen ® wrench into
the trim saw body for safe keeping.
