OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Installing or removing saw blade (Fig. 1 & 2)
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before installing or removing the blade.
• Always clean out all chips or foreign matter adhering to
the blade and/or blade holder. Failure to do so may
cause insufficient tightening of the blade, resulting in a
serious injury.
To install the blade, loosen the bolt on the blade holder
with the hex wrench. With the blade teeth facing forward,
insert the blade into the blade holder as far as it will go.
Make sure that the back edge of the blade fits into the
roller. Then tighten the bolt to secure the blade.
To remove the blade, follow the installation procedures in
reverse.
Adjusting roller (Fig. 3)
Loosen the bolt on the back of the tool base with the hex
wrench. Move the retainer so that the roller contacts the
blade lightly. Then tighten the bolt to secure the tool base
and the retainer.
NOTE:
Occasionally lubricate the roller.
Hex wrench storage (Fig. 4)
When not in use, the hex wrench can be conveniently
stored as shown in Fig. 4.
Dust cover (Fig. 5)
CAUTION:
Always wear safety goggles even when operating the tool
with the dust cover lowered.
Lower the dust cover to prevent chips from flying. How-
ever, when making bevel cuts, raise it all the way.

CAUTION:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the
switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF"
position when released.

ger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the trigger and
then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the
