INSTALL OR REMOVE THE SAW BLADE.
Unplug the power cord first. Rotate the Quick-relea-
se blade clamp anticlockwise with hand (2). At the
same time push blade to the deepest position, then
release the quick-release blade clamp. Make sure
it is securely fastened (3). When removing the saw
blade, follow the above procedure in reverse order.
SWITCH ON/OFF.
Connect the plug to the power supply. Turn on or
turn off the tool by squeezing or releasing the ON/
OFF switch trigger. For continuous operation just
press the lock-on button on the left side of the hand-
le (4). The lock-on button can be release by pres-
sing the switch trigger again.
SPEED CONTROL.
You can modify the speed at any time by pressing
on switch (5). The more you press the switch the
speed will be higher.
TO CHANGE POSITION OF THE PIVOT SHOE
ASSEMBLY.
Unplug your saw. Loosen the both cap screws in the
gear frame with hex key (6). Reposition pivot shoe
assembly in or out (7). Retighten both cap screws
securely (6). Do not over tighten cap screws. Remo-
ve hex key.
GRIP POSITION ADJUSTMENT.
Push the button backward as the direction of arrow
shows on the and rotate grip to left or right at the
same time (8). There are five positions in all.
GENERAL CUTTING.
Clamp your work piece if it is portable. Rest the front
shoe of the saw on your work piece (be sure the
blade is not contacting the work piece) and start
the saw, exerting enough pressure in the direction
of the cut to keep the shoe pressed firmly against
the work piece at all times. Do not force the cut or
stall the saw. Don’t bend or twist the blade, let the
tool and the blade do the work. In general, coarser
blades are for wood, plastics, and composites, and
finer blades are for cutting metal. Chattering or vi-
bration may indicate you need a finer blade or hig -
her speed. If the blade overheats or clogs, it may
indicate you need a coarser blade. Replace blades
when they become dull. Dull blades will produce por
results and may overheat the saw.
PLUNGE CUTTING.
Clearly mark the line of cut, from a convenient star-
ting point within the cut out área. Place the tip of the
blade over that point with saw parallel to the line of
cut, slowing lower the saw until the bottom edge of
the shoe rests on the work piece and the blade not
touching the work piece. Start the saw and allow
it to attain full speed. With the saw resting on the
shoe, slowly tilt the saw forward to lower the blade
onto the cut line. Continue this motion until the saw
blade is perpendicular to the work piece.
METAL CUTTING.
Blades specifically designated for cutting metals
must be used for this purpose. You may use light
oil as a coolant when cutting metal, this will prevent
overheating of the blade, help the blade cut faster,
and promote longer blade life.
MAINTENANCE.
The reciprocating saw has been designed for a long
working life with minimum maintenance. Optimum
use depends on correct care of the reciprocating saw
and regular cleaning. To prevent accidents, always
unplug the reciprocating saw from the power source
before cleaning or performing any maintenance. The
reciprocating saw may be cleaned effectively using
compressed air after each use. If compressed air is
not available, use a brush to remove dust from the
reciprocating saw. Motor ventilation vents and switch
levers must be dept clean and free of foreign matter.
Do not attempt to clean by inserting pointed objects
through openings. Cetain cleaning agents and solvents
damage plastic parts, among them are gasoline, carbon
tetrachloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia
and household cleaners containing ammonia. Do not
use any of these to clean the reciprocating saw. Should
excessive sparking occur, have a Werku
®
official repair
service exam and/or replace the carbon brushes.
