CAUTION
When the battery charger has been continuously used,
the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting
the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,
and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries,
etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and
batteries that have not been used for an extended period
is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when
using them the fi rst and second time. This is a temporary
phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging
will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely
exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If
you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric
current, the battery may be damaged and its life will
become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and
the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and
recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
CAUTION
○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has
been left for a long time in a location subject to direct
sunlight or because the battery has just been used,
the pilot lamp of the charger lights up green or lights
for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for
0.5 seconds). In such a case, fi rst let the battery cool,
then start charging.
○ When the pilot lamp fl ickers in red (at 0.2-seconds
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.

WARNING
In the following situations, press in the lock-off button to
the Lock side (right side).
○ When stopping or ending work
○ When attaching or removing the blade
○ When adjusting the position of the base
○ When removing or attaching the battery
○ When selecting the stroke mode
*2 Dismounting the blade
CAUTION
Never touch the saw blade immediately after use. The
metal is hot and can easily burn your skin.
(1) After pivoting the blade holder, point the blade
downward. The blade should fall out on its own. If the
blade fails to fall out, pull it out by hand.
*3 When the blade is broken
Even when the saw blade is broken and remains inside
the slit of the blade holder, it should fall out when
the blade holder is pivoted and the blade is pointed
downward. If the blade fails to fall out on its own, take it
out by using the procedures described below.
(1) If a part of the broken saw blade is sticking out of the slit
of the blade holder, pull out the protruding part and take
the blade out.
(2) If the broken saw blade is hidden inside the slit, hook the
broken blade using a tip of another saw blade and take it
out.
*4 How to use the LED light
NOTE
To prevent the battery power consumption, turn off the
LED light frequently. The light goes out after the switch is
released.
LED LIGHT WARNING SIGNALS (Fig. 16)
