● To extend the lifetime, the lithium-ion battery
equips with the protection function to stop the
output. Therefore, if the tool is overloaded, the
motor may stop. However, this is not the trouble
but the result of protection function. In this case,
release the switch of tool and eliminate the
causes of overloading.
● Don't remove the tool from workpiece during a
cut while the saw blade is moving.
● Pull out the battery after completing operation.
NOTE
Take care not to lock the motor. If the motor is locked,
immediately turn the power off . If the motor is locked
for a while, the motor or battery may be burnt.

CAUTION
Do not fi x and secure the lock-off button.
Besides, keep your fi nger off the trigger switch
when the tool is being carried around. Otherwise,

ON, resulting in unexpected accidents.
(2) Trigger switch
This tool is equipped with a variable speed controlled
trigger switch. The tool can be turned "ON" or
"OFF" by squeezing or releasing the trigger. The
blade plunger stroke rate can be adjusted from the
minimum to maximum nameplate stroke rate by
the pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply more
pressure to increase the speed and release pressure
to decrease speed.
2. Adjusting operating speed
CAUTION
● Do not subject the switch panel to shock or
damage.
● Select mode while the trigger switch is released.
Failure to do so could result in malfunction.
The blade's stroke volume can be adjusted to any level
depending on how much the unit's switch is pulled in.
Also, the maximum number of strokes can be selected
with the mode selector switch. The more the unit's switch
is pulled, the higher the number of strokes.
When starting a cut, begin cutting with low strokes (slow
speed) to accurately cut the desired position. Once you
have the desired cut, raise the number of strokes (high
speed) and fi nish cutting.
