6. OPERATING
INSTRUCTIONS
1. HOW TO MOUNT / REMOVE THE
BATTERY PACK
WARNING
• Before mounting / removing the Battery
pack from the tool, press the Safety lock
switch as shown in the Fig.E, and keep
hands away from the Trigger switch(Fig.F).
• Before operation, make sure to check the
Battery pack is securely set in the tool.
Failure to do so may cause serious injury.
1 (Fig.C) When mounting the Battery pack, in-
sert the Battery pack in the tool so that the
rails of the Battery and the tool fit each oth-
er. Slide the Battery pack to the end, until
the click is heard. The Latches(Fig.C 16)
must be returned to the original position.
2 When removing the Battery pack, remove
it from the tool by pushing on its latches
from both sides while firmly holding the
grip of the tool.
2. HOW TO CUT THE MATERIAL
WARNING
• Keep hands away from moving parts.
• When you cut rebar short, the cut piece may
be thrown, therefore make sure the area
around you is safe before cutting the rebar.
• If oil or grease gets on the grip, wipe it off
completely.
If oil or grease is left on the grip, your hand may
slip and the tool will fall.
CAUTION
• Insert the rebar (Fig.H 28) between the blades
until it touches the bottom (Fig.H 31) and cut
the rebar.
• If the trigger is left engaged after operation,
the Cutter Rod restarts after cutting
through the rebar. Therefore, release the
trigger after cutting the rebar.
1 Loosen the lock nut with the included
wrench. (Fig.A 11)
2 Use the adjusting bolt so that the rebar is
set at a right angle to the tool. (Fig.A 10)
3 Tighten the lock nut with the wrench.
4 Insert the rebar (Fig.H 28) to be cut be-
tween the blades. (Fig.H 29)
5 Set the rebar at the position you want to
cut, pull the trigger and operate the Cut-
ter Rod (Fig.H 30). Keep the trigger pulled
until cutting is complete. The Cutter Rod
automatically returns to the start position
when the Cutter Rod cuts the rebar and
arrives at the stroke end.
6 Release the switch to remove the rod bar.
3. HOW TO USE THE VALVE BOLT
NOTICE:
Do not turn the Valve Bolt more than necessary.
Excessive turning may cause oil to leak or parts
to go missing.
1 To withdraw the Cutter Rod halfway through
cutting, loosen the Valve Bolt. (Fig.I)
Loosening the bolt by about one turn in the
counterclockwise direction (Fig.I 32) with a
coin or screwdriver returns the Cutter Rod to
the start position.
2 To resume cutting, securely tighten the bolt
in the clockwise direction (Fig.I 33). If the bolt
is loose, the rebar cannot be cut.
4. ROTATION MECHANISM OF THE
HEAD
WARNING
• When turning the head, keep your fingers
off the trigger. The Cutter Rod may operate,
causing injury or accident. (Fig.F)
1 The head can be rotated by 360° (Fig.J)
