BEFORE USING

1. Make sure the power source is appropriate for the tool.
WARNING:
Never connect the power tool unless the available AC power source is of the same
voltage as that specifi ed on the nameplate of the tool.
Never connect this power tool to a DC power source.
2. Make sure the trigger switch is turned OFF.
WARNING:
If the power cord is connected to the power source with the trigger switch turned
ON the power tool will start suddenly and can cause a serious accident.
3. Check the saw blade for visible defects.
Confi rm that the saw blade is free of cracks or other visible damage.
4. Confi rm that the saw blade is attached securely to the power tool.
Using the supplied 10mm box wrench, tighten the bolt on the saw blade spindle to secure the saw blade.

WARNING:
NEVER OPERATE THE POWER TOOL if the lower guard does not function smoothly.
6. Confi rm the position of the spindle lock before using the tool.
After installing the saw blade, confi rm that the spindle lock has been returned to the retract position before
using the power tool (see Fig. 2).
7. Check the lower limit position of the Saw Blade.
Although it was adjusted before shipment, carefully check the height of the saw blade. Confi rm that the saw
blade can be lowered 13/32" to 7/16" (10mm to 11mm) below the table insert. For details, see the section on
"Checking the saw blade lower limit position".
8. Check the Power Receptacle.
To prevent overheating, accidental stopping or intermittent operation, confi rm that the power cord plug fi ts
properly in the electrical receptacle and does not fall out after it is inserted. Repair or replace the receptacle if
it is faulty.
9. Confi rm the tool's power cord is not damaged.
Repair or replace the power cord if an inspection indicates that it is damaged

10. Eye protection

Always wear eye protection with side shields that meets the requirements of ANSI Standard Z87.1. Ordinary
eyeglasses do not provide adequate protection because they do not contain impact resistant safety glass.
WARNING:
Operating the tool without wearing proper eye protection may result in serious
injury.

11. Electric brake

This tool is equipped with an electric brake which will typically stop the blade within 5 seconds after the trigger
switch is released.
Occasionally, there will be a delay in the brake engaging which will result in a longer blade stopping time. On
rare occasions, the brake may not engage at all and the saw blade will coast to a stop.
If the brake fails to engage frequently, depress and release the trigger switch to turn the tool on and off 4 or 5
times. If the brake still does not engage, have the tool serviced at a metabo HPT authorized service center.
Always confi rm that the saw blade has completely stopped before raising it from the workpiece.
Lower guard is designed to protect the operator from coming into contact
with the saw blade during operation of the tool.
Always check that the lower guard moves smoothly and covers the saw
blade properly.
