MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING
To avoid an accident or personal injury, always confi rm
the trigger switch is turned OFF and that the power plug
has been disconnected from the receptacle before
performing any maintenance or inspection of this tool.
1. Inspecting the saw blade
Always replace the saw blade immediately upon the
fi rst sign of deterioration or damage.
A damaged saw blade can cause personal injury and
a worn saw blade can cause ineff ective operation and
possible overload to the motor.
CAUTION
○ Never use a dull saw blade. When a saw blade is dull,
its resistance to the hand pressure applied by the tool
handle tends to increase, making it unsafe to operate
the power tool.
2. Inspecting the lever (Fig. 30 and Fig. 31)
If the M6 hexagonal head bolts (2) are loose, align the
sides of the fence and saw blade with the steel square.
After adjusting the saw blade and fence to a ninety-
degree angle, tighten the lever securing hexagonal
head bolts (2).
3. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 32 and Fig. 33)
The carbon brushes in the motor are expendable parts.
If the carbon brushes become excessively worn, motor
trouble might occur.
Therefore, inspect the carbon brushes periodically and
replace them when they have become worn to the wear
limit line as shown in Fig. 32.
Also, keep the carbon brushes clean so that they will
slide smoothly within the brush holders.
