switch the tool off, wait for it to come to a
standstill, and unplug from the power supply.

!
IMPORTANT! The assembly of the blade
must be carried out with absolute precision.
Incorrect assembly causes very serious
danger.
Before proceeding, closely observe the compo-
nents of the tool and fig. C. If you are not familiar
with handling and assembling mechanical
components, we recommend that you consult
an authorised service centre.
1. Wear protective gloves.
2. Unplug the tool from the electric power
supply.
3. Clean the blade holder area carefully using a
non-metallic brush.
4. Activate the blade coupling device (7) by
rotating the ring (see fig.C)
5. Pull the blade (5) outwards.
6. If necessary clean the blade holder housing.
7. Grip the new blade (5) on the toothed part
and lubricate the shaped end with a thin layer
of grease.
8. Keeping the coupling device activated, slide
the shaped end into the blade holder slot. The
toothed edge of the blade should face toward
the bottom of the tool (fig. A).
9. Release the blade coupling device. Pull the
blade outwards to check it is fastened well.
10. Ensure the correct assembly of the
components, that the screws are tightened
and the blade is secure.
11. Do a dry run for 1 minute, keeping the tool
away from you.
