Avoid charging or storing your battery in temperatures below 0ºC and above 40ºC.

Changing a blade

Caution. Always ensure that the saw is switched off and unplugged from the power supply before installing or removing a blade. Make sure that the blade protector is fitted to the blade to protect your hands and fingers against the sharp teeth.

Removing a blade.

1.Loosen the Allen screw, by inserting the allen key provided and turning it anti- clockwise. This screw clamps the blade so that the blade can be lifted off the retaining pin.

2.Remove the blade from the saw.

Fitting a blade

3.Position the hole in the blade over the retaining pin.

4.Tighten the allen key by inserting the allen key and turning it clockwise to clamp the blade in position.

5.Remove the blade protector.

Operation

Switching on and off and controlling the speed.

1.The multisaw has a variable speed trigger switch, the harder it is squeezed the

faster the saw will operate.

2.This gives the operator better control when starting a cut and at break through, and enables the speed of cutting to be varied according to the circumstances.

3.To switch on, rotate or roll the Lock-off switch (2) to release the trigger switch, then pull the trigger on.

4.To switch off, release the trigger switch.

General cutting and pruning (230 & 239 mm blades)

1.Hold the saw firmly with both hands in front and clearly away from you.

2.Make sure that the blade is clear of any obstructions.

3.Ensure that the material to be cut is held firmly. Small

work pieces should be held in a vice or clamped to the workbench.

4.Mark out the cutting line.

5.To switch on, rotate or roll the Lock-off switch to release the trigger switch, then pull the trigger on.

6.Wait until the saw has reached maximum speed.

7.Begin sawing using the same forward and backward movement you would use with a hand saw.

Note. Use only enough pressure to keep the saw cutting. Do not force the cutting; allow the blade and the saw to do the work.

Warning. Use of excessive pressure that causes bending or twisting of the blade may cause the blade to break.

Warning. Make sure that the blade does not touch the work piece until the blade has reached maximum speed since this could cause loss of control and serious injury.

Metal cutting (200 mm blade)

Metals such as sheet steel, pipe, aluminium, brass and copper can be cut with your saw. Be careful not to bend or twist the blade and do not force the cutting action.
