MAINTENANCE
Ensure that the tool is switched off and the plug is
removed from the power point before making any
adjustments or carrying out maintenance procedures.
Blade maintenance
• Regularly check that the blade is free from a build up
of gum resins or sawdust. If necessary clean with an
appropriate cleaning agent or multi-use lubricant spray
• Regularly check the saw blade for flatness. Use of the
saw with a buckled blade places excessive load on
the motor and gearbox assembly, and may affect your
warranty rights
• Check the tungsten carbide teeth regularly for
sharpness and breakages; re-sharpen or replace
the blade as required. Note that when re-sharpening,
the bevel angles on the front of the teeth should be
retained
Replacing the saw blade
• Only use 165mm / 6-
2.2 & 3.5mm / ⁄ " &

32
with a no-load speed rating of at least 5000min
• Never fit high speed steel
blades or abrasive discs.
Fitting of other purpose or
different sized blades will
void the warranty
• Do not fit inferior blades.
Regularly check the blade is
flat, sharp and free of cracks
or defects

shaft and slide the blade out through the aperture at
the bottom of the blade housing and set aside
6. Carefully slide the new blade in through the bottom of
the blade housing and position it onto the inner washer
on the shaft. The graphics should face out and the

should be inspected periodically and replaced when
worn

Brush Access Caps (11). Remove the brushes by pulling
carefully on the protruding springs
