Removing or installing shear blade

CAUTION:

Before removing or installing shear blade, always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged.

When replacing the shear blade, always wear gloves without removing blade cover so that hands and face does not directly contact the blade. Failure to do so may cause personal injury.

NOTE:

Do not wipe off grease from the gear and crank.

The blade cover (standard equipment) cannot be installed on the tool with the chip receiver being installed. Before carrying or storing, uninstall the chip receiver and then install the blade cover to avoid blade exposure.

NOTE:

Check the chip receiver for secure installment before use.

Never try to uninstall the chip receiver by an excessive force with its hooks locked in the blade unit grooves. Using the excessive force may damage it.
