(5) Press in the spindle lock and tighten the bolt by turning it to the left by 10mm box wrench as
indicated in Fig. 37-b.
CAUTION: * Confirm that the spindle lock has returned to the retract position after installing or
removing the saw blade.
* Tighten the bolt so it does not come loose during operation.
Confirm the bolt has been properly tightened before the power tool is started.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
WARNING:To avoid an accident or personal injury, always confirm that the trigger switch is turned
OFF and the power plug has been disconnected from the receptacle before performing
any maintenance or inspection of this tool.
1. Inspecting the saw blade
Always replace the saw blade immediately upon the first sign of deterioration or damage.
A damaged saw blade can cause personal injury and a worn saw blade can cause ineffective operation
and possible overload to the motor.
CAUTION: Never use a dull saw blade. When a saw blade is dull, its resistance to the hand
pressure applied by the tool handle tends to increase, making it unsafe to operate
the power tool.
2. Adjusting a loose slide pipe
After extended use of the power tool, the slide pipe (A) and the
bushing can become loose due to vibration. Never operate the tool
if any components are loose to avoid personal injury.
(1) Loosen the 8mm nut and tighten the four 8mm hexagon socket
set screws until the power tool operates smoothly without
looseness.
(2)
Properly tighten the 8mm nut after completing these adjustment.
