cleaning, Maintenance, and Lubrication
1.
BEFORE EAcH USE,
inspect the general
condition of the tool. Check for:
• loose hardware,
• misalignment or binding of moving parts,
• damaged cord/electrical wiring,
• cracked or broken parts, and
• any other condition that may
affect its safe operation.
2. The Saw Blade must be sharp and clean to
perform properly. Depending on materials cut and
frequency of tool use, the Saw Blade may become
clogged with metal particles and become dull.
3. Dull Saw Blades rub the workpiece rather
than cut, which results in increased friction,
higher temperatures, and a burned workpiece.
As often as possible, check the condition of
the Saw Blade and, if necessary, replace a
worn Saw Blade with a new Saw Blade.
4. For blade changing instructions
see Tool Set Up on page 10.
5. Wipe the Saw with a dry soft cloth. Do not
clean it with liquid or detergent, or the surface
coating of the Saw may be damaged.
