HSS Hire 03151 Operating & Safety Manual

Blade Replacement

Switch the unit OFF and unplug it from the power
supply. Wearing suitable gloves, turn the unit up-
side-down and where fitted, remove the dust
extraction cover.
Model 1.
Working on one blade at a time, turn the blade
locking hex bolt anticlockwise with the hex key
until the blade and bolt separate. The bolt is spring
loaded and held captive.
Lift the blade by the heel end. Fully raise the
blade until it disconnects from the front guide slot
of the main bar. Repeat with the remaining blade.
Blade Locking Hex Bolt
Female
Thread
The blades can only be replaced one way and left
and right cannot be incorrectly fitted.
To refit, insert the tip of one blade into the main
bar until the tip clicks into the guide slot. Lower
the heel and align its female thread with the
captive hex bolt and turn the bolt clockwise to
secure in place. Repeat with the remaining blade.
Blade Tip
Model 2.
Depress the blade lock button and lift the blades
by the heel end. Fully raise the blades until they
disconnect from the front guide slots of the main
bar.
Blade Heel
Lock Button
The blades are colour coded red and green. When
replacing, fit the red set first followed by the green.
To refit, depress the blade lock button and insert
the heel of the red blade onto the drive pin then
lower it into the main bar until the tip clicks into
the guide slot.

Repeat with the green blade then release the
blade lock button.
Never push the equipment beyond its design limits.
If it will not do what you want with reasonable ease and
speed, assume you have the wrong tool for the job.
Contact your local HSS Hire Shop for advice.
Keep the equipment clean - you will find this less of a
chore if you clean it regularly, rather than wait until the end
of the hire period.
When not in use, store the equipment somewhere
clean, dry and safe from thieves.
Remove the saw from the cut while still running, then
Blade
release the ON/OFF trigger and wait for the blade to
stop.
Then unplug the saw and refit the plastic guard strip
supplied to protect the blades. Take care though - the
Lift
blades are very sharp.

All that remains is to give the unit a final clean up ready
for return, to your local HSS Hire Shop.
