•
Always switch off the tool before insertion or
removal of the battery cartridge.
•
To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from
the tool while pressing the buttons on both sides of
the cartridge.
•
To insert the battery cartridge, hold it so that the
battery cartridge front shape fits to that of the
battery installment opening and slip it into place.
Always insert it all the way until it locks in place with
a little click. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the
tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.
•
Do not use force when inserting the battery
cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it
is not being inserted correctly.
Battery protection system

automatically cuts off the output power for its long service
life.
The tool stops during operation when the tool and/or
battery are placed under the following situation. This is
caused by the activation of protection system and does
not show the tool trouble.
•
When the tool is overloaded:
At this time, release the switch trigger and
remove causes of overload and then pull the
switch trigger again to restart.
•

CAUTION:
•
After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the
clamping screw securely.
Loosen the clamping screw on the depth guide and move
the base up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure
the base by tightening the clamping screw.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more
than one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using
proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous
KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.
