The cut-outs may trip in the following circumstances:
• Temperature cut-out may trip under very heavy sustained usage, possibly coupled with a
high ambient temperature.
• The overload cut-out may trip when pushing the tool too hard through the material, pos-
sibly coupled with a blunt blade.
Using a V-Guard
A V-Guard can be purchased as an accessory or may be included in the kit from some suppli-
ers. The V Guard is used to cut plastic, copper and aluminium pipes as well as wooden dowel.
1. To fit the V Guard, push the attachment onto the guard, ensuring it engages correctly.
2. Fit the appropriate blade for the material to be cut
3. Place the pipe so that the area being cut is fully supported on the work surface.
4. Place the saw on top of the pipe to be cut and use free hand to rotate the pipe as required.
Ensure that the hand holding the pipe is kept at a safe distance from the cutting blade.
EC 18V Safety Warnings: Maintenance and Servicing
Cleaning
Regular cleaning is required for the safe operation of the tool, as an excessive build up of
dust will prevent the tool operating correctly.
The dust extract nozzle may block and require cleaning occasionally, especially if damp wood
is being cut.
1. Disconnect the battery and remove guard. (See Guard Removal Section)
2. Clean thoroughly with a small soft brush, like a paint brush.
3. A pipe-cleaner or similar length of material may be used to clear the dust extract nozzle

Safety Blade Retaining Washer
The blade is clamped in place using a special safety washer that is designed to slip if the
blade jams. The result is that the motor slows down, sounds like it is labouring and the tool
will stop cutting. If this happens the operator should immediately reduce the feed pressure
until the motor sounds healthy or remove the tool from the work piece to prevent perma-
nent damage. The washer is a consumable item, which should be replaced if damaged or
deformed.
NB. Never replace this washer with anything other than an EXAKT replacement part.
(See List of user-replaceable parts)
Blades
• NB. Always use a sharp blade.
• If the tool does not cut as well as expected or if it overheats (temperature cut out may trip)
the most common cause is a blunt blade.
