4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for
a long period (more than six months).

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or
checking function on the tool.
Installing or removing battery cartridge
(Fig. 7)
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
of the battery cartridge.
• To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the tool
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge.
• To install the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the
battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip
it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in
place with a little click. If you can see the red indicator
on the upper side of the button, it is not locked
completely. Install it fully until the red indicator cannot
be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool,
causing injury to you or someone around you.
• Do not use force when installing the battery cartridge. If
the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
Battery protection system (Lithium-ion
battery with star marking) (Fig. 8)
Lithium-ion batteries with a star marking are equipped
with a protection system. This system automatically cuts
off power to the tool to extend battery life.
The tool will automatically stop during operation if the tool
and/or battery are placed under one of the following
conditions:
• Overloaded:
The tool is operated in a manner that causes it to
draw an abnormally high current.
In this situation, release the trigger switch on the tool
and stop the application that caused the tool to
become overloaded. Then pull the trigger switch
again to restart.
If the tool does not start, the battery is overheated. In
this situation, let the battery cool before pulling the
trigger switch again.
• Low battery voltage:
The remaining battery capacity is too low and the tool
will not operate. In this situation, remove and
recharge the battery.
Indicating the remaining battery capacity
Only for battery cartridges with the indicator (Fig. 9)
Press the check button on the battery cartridge to indicate
the remaining battery capacity. The indicator lamps light
up for a few seconds.
Indicator lamps
Lighted Off
NOTE:
• Depending on the conditions of use and the ambient
temperature, the indication may differ slightly from the
actual capacity.
Adjusting depth of cut (Fig. 10)
CAUTION:
• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the lever
securely.
Loosen the lever on the side of the rear handle and move
the base up or down. At the desired depth of cut, secure
the base by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than
one blade tooth projects below workpiece. Using proper
cut depth helps to reduce potential for dangerous
kickback which can cause personal injury.
Bevel cutting (Fig. 11)
Loosen the wing screw on the front and rear base. Set for
the desired angle (0° - 45°) by tilting accordingly, then
tighten the wing screw securely.
Sighting (Fig. 12)
For straight cuts, align the 0° position on the front of the
base with your cutting line. For 45° bevel cuts, align the
45° position with it. The position of the top guide is
adjustable.
Switch action (Fig. 13)
CAUTION:
• Before installing the battery cartridge into the tool,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
• Do not pull the switch trigger hard without pressing the
lock-off lever. This can cause switch breakage.
To prevent the switch trigger from being accidentally
pulled, a lock-off lever is provided. To start the tool, press
the lock-off lever and pull the switch trigger. Release the
switch trigger to stop.
