Installing or removing battery cartridge
006700
• Always switch off the tool before insertion or removal of the battery
2
cartridge.
• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the tool while sliding
the button on the side of the cartridge.
• To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the battery cartridge
with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Always insert it all
3
the way until it locks in place with a little click. If you can see the red part
on the upper side of the button, it is not locked completely. Insert it fully
until the red part cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the
tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.
• Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If the cartridge
does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly.
Adjusting depth of cut
006701
CAUTION:
• After adjusting the depth of cut, always tighten the lever securely.
Loosen the lever on the side of the rear handle and move the base up or
down. At the desired depth of cut, secure the base by tightening the lever.
For cleaner, safer cuts, set cut depth so that no more than one blade tooth
projects below workpiece. Using proper cut depth helps to reduce potential for
dangerous KICKBACKS which can cause personal injury.
Bevel cutting
006702
Loosen the lever on the bebel scale plate on the front base. Set for the desired
angle (0° - 50°) by tilting accordingly, then tighten the lever securely. Use the
45° stopper when you do precise 45° angle cutting. Turn the stopper counter-
clockwise fully for bevel cut (0° - 45°) and turn it clockwise for 0° - 50° bevel
cuts.
