Indication lamp with multi function
010100
Indication lamps are located in two positions.
− Battery cartridge replacing signal
− When the battery power is almost used up
during operation, the red lamp lights up and
the tool stops immediately. Replace the
battery with fully charged one when the red
lamp lights up.
− Accidental re-start preventive function
− Even if the battery cartridge is inserted on the
tool with the slide switch in the "I (ON)"
position, the tool does not start. At this time,
the lamp flickers slowly and this shows that
the accidental re-start preventive function is
at work.
− To start the tool, first slide the slide switch
toward the "O (OFF)" position and then slide
it toward the "I (ON)" position.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
•
battery cartridge is removed before carrying out
any work on the tool.

When using the thickness gauge to adjust the blade
clearance, refer to the table.
