5. The tool’s own weight provides the most efficient
downward cutting pressure. Added operator pressure
slows the blade and reduces bladelife.
6. End pieces, which would be heavy enough to cause
injury when they drop, after cut-off, should be
supported. Safety shoes are strongly recommended.
End pieces may be hot andsharp.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, the brush, brush cap and blade guard
assembly must be installed for one-handeduse.
NOTE: The guard assembly is available at extra cost from
your local dealer or authorized servicecenter.
Tips for Better Cutting (Fig. J)
The following recommendations should be used as a guide
(refer to FigureJ). Results may vary with the operator and
the particular material beingcut.
• Never twist the band saw blade during
cuttingoperation.
• Never use liquid coolants with portable band saws.
Use of liquid coolants will cause build-up on tires and
reduceperformance.
• If excessive vibration occurs during the cut, ensure that
the material being cut is is securely clamped down. If
vibration continues, change the band sawblade.
MAINTENANCE

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn unit off and remove the battery pack
before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. An
accidental start-up can causeinjury.
Lubrication
Self-lubricating bearings are used in the tool and periodic
relubrication is not required. In the unlikely event that
service is ever needed, take your tool to an authorized
servicelocation.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of all air vents with
clean, dry air at least once a week. To minimize the risk
of eye injury, always wear ANSI Z87.1 approved eye
protection when performingthis.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh
chemicals for cleaning the non-metallic parts of
the tool. These chemicals may weaken the plastic
materials used in these parts. Use a cloth dampened
only with water and mild soap. Never let any liquid
get inside the tool; never immerse any part of the tool
into aliquid.
