Carbon Brushes

When the carbon brushes wear out, the mitre saw will
spark and/or stop. Discontinue use as soon as this
happens. They should be replaced prior to recommencing
use of the mitre saw. Carbon brushes are a wearing
component of the mitre saw therefore not covered under
warranty. Continuing to use the mitre saw when carbon
brushes need to be replaced may cause permanent
damage to the mitre saw. Carbon brushes will wear out after many uses but when
the carbon brushes need to be replaced, take the mitre saw to an electrician or
a power tool repairer for a quick and low cost replacement. Always replace both
carbon brushes at the same time.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries
caused by the repair of the mitre saw by an unauthorised person or by
mishandling of the mitre saw.
Sparking visible through the housing air vents
A small amount of sparking may be visible through the housing vents. This is
normal and does not indicate a problem.

transporting of storing the mitre saw.
1 Press the cutting
head down.
2 Push the head locking pin in
to stop the cutting head from
raising.
Emptying the Dust Bag
1 Remove the dust
bag by squeezing
the clamp and then
remove.
2 Empty the dust bag and then refit the bag by squeezing the clamp
and placing over the dust port.
