CAUTION:
Keep hands and fingers away from

the blade clamp lever fully again, then make sure that
the blade clamp lever locked at the released position.
NOTE: If the blade clamp lever is positioned inside
the tool, switch on the tool just a second to let the
blade out. Remove the battery cartridge from the tool
before installing or removing the recipro saw blade.

The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool.
This can be installed on either side of the tool.
To install the hook, insert it into a groove in the tool
housing on either side and then secure it with a screw.
To remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always press the shoe firmly
against the workpiece during operation. If the
shoe is removed or held away from the workpiece
during operation, strong vibration and/or twisting will
be produced, causing the blade to snap dangerously.
CAUTION:
Always wear gloves to protect
your hands from hot flying chips when cutting
metal.
CAUTION:
Be sure to always wear suitable
eye protection which complies with current
national standards.
CAUTION:
Always use a suitable coolant
(cutting oil) when cutting metal. Failure to do so will
cause premature blade wear.
CAUTION:
Do not quirk the blade during
cutting.
