English
When inserting the stud in the cutter, the meshing
of the stud thread and cutter thread is unstable. In
such a case, after inserting the stud in the cutter,
lightly pull the trigger switch to close the cutter at
low speed and then completely mesh the stud and
the upper and lower cutters. Next, pull the trigger
switch all the way to cut the stud.
CAUTION
Use your left hand to hold the screw on the side
released by cutting to insure that it does not fall
unexpectedly.
5. Removing the screw from the unit during cutting
operations
If the battery wears out during cutting operations
so that the motor stops rotating, pull the trigger
switch while pushing the forward/reverse switching
button to the side. The motor will rotate in the
opposite direction and it will be possible to remove
the stud from the cutter (Fig. 11).
CAUTIONS
When removing a stud that is suspended from
the ceiling, hold the main unit with both hands
to prevent any possibility of the stud falling.
Immediately turn off the switch once the cutter
is free from the stud. If you attempt to do this
with the switch turned on, the cutter might cut
into the stud again.
6. Using the hook
The hook can be used to hang up the unit temporarily
during operations (Fig. 12).
CAUTION
The hook should never be used to hang the unit
on your person.
Never hang the unit from your belt or trousers as
this could cause accidents.

NOTE
During normal use or during storage, store the hook
in the latch found on the bottom of the main unit.
7. Using the trimmer
NOTE: Use a special trimmer that is suitable for the
size of the stud.
If it is difficult for the nut to enter the cutting
position, either use a wrench to firmly tighten the
nut or use the accessory trimmer to remove the
flange on the screw thread.
(1) Long studs
Insert the screw in the narrow hole on the grip,
rotate 5 or 6 times to the left to remove the flange
and then rotate in the opposite direction to remove
(Fig. 13).
