Assembly

ATTACHING THE BLADE

!WARNING Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the

switch in the locked or off position before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

1.Turn BLADE STUD with wrench provided counter-clockwise and remove BLADE STUD and OUTER WASHER (Fig. 2). If the shaft moves while attempting to loosen the blade stud, strike the wrench counter-clockwise to jar BLADE STUD loose.

2.Retract the lower guard all the way up into the upper guard. While retracting the lower guard, check operation and condition of the

LOWER GUARD SPRING.

3.Make sure the saw teeth and arrow on the blade point in the same direction as the arrow on the lower guard.

4.Slide blade through slot in the foot and mount it against the INNER WASHER on the shaft. Be sure the large diameter of the OUTER washer lays flush against the blade.

5.Reinstall OUTER WASHER and tighten BLADE STUD finger tight. To lock shaft hold the saw securely by the upper guard with blade teeth imbedded in scrap wood and TIGHTEN BLADE STUD 1/8 TURN (45°) WITH THE WRENCH PROVIDED.

Do not use wrenches with longer handles, since it may lead to over tightening of the blade stud.

VARI-TORQUE CLUTCH

This clutching action is provided by the friction of the OUTER WASHER against the BLADE and permits the blade shaft to turn when the blade encounters excessive resistance. When the BLADE STUD is properly tightened (as described in No. 5 of Attaching The Blade), the blade will slip when it encounters excessive resistance, thus reducing saw’s tendency to

KICKBACK.

One setting may not be sufficient for cutting all materials. If excessive blade slippage occurs, tighten the blade stud a fraction of a turn more (less than 1/8 turn). OVERTIGHTENING THE BLADE STUD NULLIFIES THE EFFECTIVE- NESS OF THE CLUTCH.

DUST EXTRACTION

(Not included,available as accessory)

Your tool is equipped with a dust port adapter for dust and chip extraction. To attach, push tabs on end of adapter into dust port until it snaps into place. To use this feature, attach standard 1-1/4" vacuum hose (optional accessory) to the dust port adapter.

!WARNING To prevent personal injury, always position dust port

adapter and vacuum hose so that it does not interfere with the lower guard, or the cutting operation at all settings.
