ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR MACHINE
1. If the blades are deformed, damaged or cracked,
replace them with new ones immediately.
Deformed, damaged or cracked blades can
cause machine trouble, eventually leading to
serious injury.
2. Be careful when using the machine in high or
elevated locations. Parts of cut threaded rods
may fall unexpectedly, causing serious injury.
3. Keep hands away from blades and surrounding
areas.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
Charging (Fig. 2)
Plug the fast charger into your power source. The charging light will flash in green color. Insert the battery cartridge so
that its plus and minus terminals are on the same sides as their respective markings on the fast charger. The charging
light color will change from green to red and charging will begin. The charging light will remain lit steadily during
charging. When the charging light color changes from red to green and a tone sounds steadily for approx. 5 seconds,
charging is complete. Unplug the charger from the power source.
(Note: Refer to the table below for the charging time.)
Battery cartridge
1202 or 1202A
1201 or 1201A
1200 or 1200A
CAUTION:
• If the battery cartridge is new, or has not been used for a long time, it may not accept a full charge. You can recharge
the battery cartridge fully after discharging it completely a couple of times.
• If the battery cartridge is warm, the charging light may flash in red color. Let it cool before charging.
• If the charging light flashes alternately in green and red, and a tone sounds "beep, beep, beep, .....", a problem exists
and charging is not possible. The terminals on the charger or battery cartridge are clogged with dust or the battery
cartridge is worn out or damaged.
• If charging two battery cartridges in succession, give the charger 15 minutes to cool down between the two.
Switching ON and OFF (Fig. 3)
CAUTION:
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the machine,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position when
released.
To switch on, press the trigger. To switch off, release the
trigger.
Variable trigger speed control (Fig. 3)
The speed varies from 0 to maximum, depending on the
pressure applied to the trigger. The more the trigger is
pressed, the faster the machine runs.
Replacing blades (Fig. 4)
Important:
Always be sure that the machine is switched off and
battery cartridge is removed before replacing the blades.
M8 blades are factory-installed on the machine. When
cutting M10 or M12 threaded rods, replace the M8 blades
with M10 or M12 blades which are available as optional
accessories. There are two types of blades for each size;
type A should be installed on the cutter head and type B
on the cutter rod. Check the type (example: M8A or M8B)
engraved on the side of the blades and install them at the correct position.
To replace the blades, first remove the hex socket head
bolts which secure them.

its claw facing forward as shown in Fig. 7. With the
M8 or M10 threaded rod, move the machine head to
the threaded rod either in the X direction shown in
Fig. 7-1 or in the Y direction shown in Fig. 7-2. With
the M12 threaded rod, move the machine head in
