Operation; Installing The Blade - Porter Cable TIGERCLAW 750 Manuel D'utilisation

To reduce the risk of injury, turn unit off and disconnect it from
power source before installing and removing accessories, before adjusting or
when making repairs. An accidental start-up can cause injury.
SELECTING THE BLADE
For best performance, longer blade life, and smoother cut, select the proper blade
for the job. Always select a blade for metal cutting that will engage at least three
teeth in the thickness of the workpiece.

INSTALLING THE BLADE

1. Fully extend the reciprocating shaft to permit access to the keyless Quik-Change™
blade release collar (A) Fig. 1. If necessary, connect the tool to the power source
and gently squeeze the trigger switch to move the reciprocating shaft to its
outermost position (in Fig. 1).
Disconnect the tool from the power source!
2. Pivot the guide shoe (B) Fig. 1 forward to improve access to the blade clamp.
3. To open the blade clamp, rotate (counterclockwise) and hold the blade release
collar (A) Fig. 2 (as viewed from the front of the saw).

NOTE: You can temporarily remove the keyless Quik-Change™ pivoting guide shoe
to make blade installation easier. Release the locking lever (B) Fig. 3 to remove (see
Pivoting Guide Shoe Adjustment With keyless Quik-Change™ section of this
manual).
Do not operate this tool with the guide shoe removed.
4. Insert the blade into the clamp until it bottoms. Allow the release collar (A) Fig. 4
to rotate clockwise to lock the blade in place.
NOTE: You can install the blade upside down if you prefer for better reach in tight
fitting applications.
5. To remove the blade, repeat steps 1 through 3. Pull the blade from the blade
clamp while you hold the release collar in the open position.
