available on the open market. As illustrated in Fig.13,
blade dimension restrictions are as follows;
Thickness: L2 ........ Less than 1.6 mm
Width: L3 ........ 6.3 mm
L4 ........ 8 mm
L5 ........ 7 mm
NOTE
When cutting thick materials, use HITACHI genuine blades
which have an inclination as shown in Fig.3-A or B.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the blade
Continued use of a dull or damaged blade will
result in reduced cutting efficiency and may cause
overloading of the motor. Repalce the blade with
a new one as soon as excessive abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure
that they are properly tightened. Should any of the
screws be loose, retighten them immediately. Fail-
ure to do so could result in serious hazard.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the
power tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding
does not become damaged and/or wet with oil or
water.
4. Servicing
Consult an authorized service agent in the event of
power tool failure.
NOTE:
Due to HITACHI's continuing program of research and
development, the specifications herein are subject to
