*1 Adjusting operating speed
CAUTION
Select mode while the trigger switch is released. Failure
to do so could result in malfunction.
Once you install the battery and switch on the power, you
can change modes with each press of the mode selector
switch.
● Speed change mode allows the number of maximum
strokes to be switched between 3 levels: low speed,
medium speed and high speed.
With speed change mode, the set number of maximum
strokes will be maintained even if there is a change in
load.
● With auto mode, electricity consumption and noise can
be suppressed by lowering the number of maximum
strokes during no-load motor operation.
Auto mode automatically increases the number of
revolutions when the load becomes heavier during
operation. When the load becomes lighter, the number
of revolutions is automatically reduced.

*2 Dismounting the blade
CAUTION
Never touch the saw blade immediately after use. The
metal is hot and can easily burn your skin.
(1) After pivoting the lever, point the blade downward. The
blade should fall out on its own. If the blade fails to fall
out, pull it out by hand.
WHEN THE BLADE IS BROKEN
Even when the saw blade is broken and remains inside
the small slit of the blade holder, it should fall out when
the lever is pivoted and the blade is pointed downward.
If the blade fails to fall out on its own, take it out by using
the procedures described below.
(1) If a part of the broken saw blade is sticking out of the
small slit of the blade holder, pull out the protruding part
and take the blade out.
(2) If the broken saw blade is hidden inside the small slit,
hook the broken blade using a tip of another saw blade
and take it out. (Fig. 8)
*3 How to use the Hook
The hook can be used to hang up the unit
temporarilyduring operations (Fig. 9).
CAUTION
The hook should never be used to hang the unit on your
person.
When using the hook, check to make sure that the main
unit will not slip and fall, or become unstable by the wind,
etc.
Never hang the unit from your belt or trousers as this
could cause accidents.
