Maintain all parts in good working order.
3. Always secure the tool when working in elevated positions.
4. Never touch the blade, drill bit, grinding wheel or other moving
parts during use.
5. Never start the tool when its rotating component is in contact
with the work piece.
6. Never lay the tool down before its moving parts have come to a
complete stop.
7. ACCESSORIES :
The use of accessories or attachments other than those
recommended in this manual might present a hazard.
8. REPLACEMENT PARTS :
When servicing use only identical replacement parts.

SPECIFICATIONS
1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing
an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden
wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and
could give the operator an electric shock.
2. Use blades suitable for the material to be cut for efficient and
safe operation.
Make sure the saw blade is tightly secured, as described in the
operation instructions.
3. Excessive pressure and bending while cutting may break the
blade.
4. Cutting with the body of the tool fixed in a vice is very dangerous.
5. It is extremely dangerous to point the cutting surface towards
any person.

DESCRIPTION
STANDARD ACCESSORIES
Li-ion batteries must be recycled.
Take the battery to the shop from which it was purchased as soon
as the post-charging battery life becomes too short for practical use.
Do not discard the exhausted battery.
APPLICATIONS
BLADE INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL (Fig. 1)
(Use only for the purposes listed below.)
1. Cutting wood, resin boards and thin metal sheets.
Wood cutting blade x 1pc
1. Rotate the quick release lever (4) counter-clockwise and hold in
position.
2. Insert the saw blade into the groove in the roller guide (5), making
sure the back of the blade is properly positioned in the groove.
3. To removing the blade, rotate the quick release lever
counter-clockwise and hold in position. Then pull out the saw
blade from the holder.
BE SURE TO REMOVE BATTERY PACK FROM TOOL BEFORE
INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE BLADE.
This tool is equipped with safety lock off switch to prevent
unintentional start of the tool.
To start the tool, squeeze the trigger (1) while the lock off button (2)
is depressed and held.
To stop the tool, release the trigger.
The blade stroke speed is variable from 0 through 2,400min
-1
by
controlling the trigger-squeezing force.
The general rules for cutting speed apply: the harder the material
(steel), the lower the speed: the softer the material (wood), the
higher the speed.
While operating the tool, the dust nozzle (7) should be connected to
a vacuum cleaner.
CHARGING BATTERY PACK
Read and follow all warnings and instructions in owner’s manual of
the XPP-2700.
INSTALLING AND REMOVING BATTERY PACK

ORBITAL ACTION (Fig. 2)
To obtain the best cutting action with various types of material, it
is necessary to adjust the orbital action of the saw blade. This
tool has a selector lever (11) on the side of the housing.
Selections range from 0 for straight reciprocating blade action to
3 for largest orbit of the blade.
When cutting into wood and plastic or other soft materials, a large
swing is required, i.e. position 1, 2 or 3.
For steel and similar hard materials, the cutting action should not
be so great, so position 0 should be used. However, if a sharp
and precise cutting surface is required for soft materials, then
position 0 may also be used. It is also intended for thin materials,
as well as for knife or rasp work.
