TRANSPORTATION OF THE MAIN BODY
The vice assembly could be dropped during transportation. Either remove the
assembly or slip a piece of wood between the vice to fi rmly secure it.
Drop the head and insert the locking pin (see P. 10 "Releasing the locking pin").
Turn and loosen the side handle, turn the turntable as far right as it will go, and
secure the turntable by turning the handle to the fi xed position. This will make
the main body even more compact.
When transporting the main body, carry it in your arms, holding the grip located
on the base with both hands or carry handle.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING:
To avoid an accident or personal injury, always confi rm that the trigger switch is turned
OFF and 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:
2. Adjusting a loose slide pipe

3. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 54 and Fig. 55)
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. 54.
Also, keep the carbon brushes clean so that they will slide smoothly within the brush holders.
The carbon brushes can easily be removed after removal of the brush caps (see Fig. 55) with a slotted (minus)
screwdriver.
NOTE:
When replacing the carbon brushes, use only metabo HPT carbon brushes having "43" in
the last two digit of its Code No. (see Fig. 54). If you use other carbon brushes, the electric
brake will not operate.

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.
After extended use of the power tool, the slide pipe (A) and the bushing can
become loose due to vibration. Never operate the tool if any components

are loose to avoid personal injury.
(1) Loosen the 8mm nut and tighten the two 8mm hexagon socket set
screws until the power tool operates smoothly without looseness.
(2) Properly tighten the 8mm nut after completing these adjustment.
