and "AUTO Mode".
(1) Standard Mode
You can change the blade operating speed between
800 to 2800 min
(2) AUTO Mode
Depending on the workload, AUTO Mode "A" will
automatically change the blade operating speed
to 1400 min
or 2800 min

NOTE*2
When the sub base is attached, the blade's protrusion
from the material being cut will be reduced by 3mm.
When the blade has been moved down to the lowest
point, check to make sure that it is protruding from the
material.
SELECTION OF BLADES
Accessory blades
To ensure maximum operating effi ciency and results, it is
very important to select the appropriate blade best suited to
the type and thickness of the material to be cut. Three types
of blades are provided as standard accessories. The blade
number is engraved in the vicinity of the mounting portion
of each blade. Select appropriate blades by referring to
Table 1.
MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION
1. Inspecting the blade
Continued use of a dull or damaged blade will result in
reduced cutting effi ciency and may cause overloading of
the motor. Replace the blade with a new one as soon as
excessive abrasion is noted.
2. Inspecting the mounting screws
Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that
they are properly tightened. Should any of the screws be
loose, retighten them immediately. Failure to do so could
result in serious hazard.
3. Maintenance of the motor
The motor unit winding is the very "heart" of the power
tool. Exercise due care to ensure the winding does not
become damaged and/or wet with oil or water.
