CAUTION
When the battery charger has been continuously used,
the battery charger will be heated, thus constituting
the cause of the failures. Once the charging has been
completed, give 15 minutes rest until the next charging.
4. Disconnect the charger's power cord from the
receptacle.
5. Hold the charger fi rmly and pull out the battery.
NOTE
Be sure to pull out the battery from the charger after use,
and then keep it.
Regarding electric discharge in case of new batteries,
etc.
As the internal chemical substance of new batteries and
batteries that have not been used for an extended period
is not activated, the electric discharge might be low when
using them the fi rst and second time. This is a temporary
phenomenon, and normal time required for recharging
will be restored by recharging the batteries 2–3 times.
How to make the batteries perform longer.
(1) Recharge the batteries before they become completely
exhausted.
When you feel that the power of the tool becomes
weaker, stop using the tool and recharge its battery. If
you continue to use the tool and exhaust the electric
current, the battery may be damaged and its life will
become shorter.
(2) Avoid recharging at high temperatures.
A rechargeable battery will be hot immediately after
use. If such a battery is recharged immediately after
use, its internal chemical substance will deteriorate, and
the battery life will be shortened. Leave the battery and
recharge it after it has cooled for a while.
CAUTION
○ If the battery is charged while it is heated because it has
been left for a long time in a location subject to direct
sunlight or because the battery has just been used,
the pilot lamp of the charger lights up green or lights
for 1 second, does not light for 0.5 seconds (off for
0.5 seconds). In such a case, fi rst let the battery cool,
then start charging.
○ When the pilot lamp fl ickers in red (at 0.2-seconds
intervals), check for and take out any foreign objects in
the charger's battery connector. If there are no foreign
objects, it is probable that the battery or charger is
malfunctioning. Take it to your authorized Service
Center.
○ Since the built-in micro computer takes about 3 seconds
to confi rm that the battery being charged with chargers
are taken out, wait for a minimum of 3 seconds before
reinserting it to continue charging. If the battery is
reinserted within 3 seconds, the battery may not be
properly charged.

Selecting accessories
*1 Make sure that the battery is installed fi rmly. If it is at all
loose it could come off and cause an accident.
*2 Mounting the blade
(1) Turning the blade holder in the direction indicated by
the arrow, insert the blade all the way into the small
slit of the blade holder. (Fig. 5-b)
(2) The blade will be locked in place when the blade
holder is released.
The blade can be attached facing up or down
depending on the operation.
(3) Pull the back of the saw blade two or three times by
hand and check that the blade is securely mounted.
(Fig. 5-c)
NOTE
The blade can be mounted without fi tting it into the base.
However, in this case, always make sure that the base is
attached to the tool after mounting the blade.
*3 Mounting the jigsaw blade (sold separately)
A T-shank jigsaw blade can be used with this product.
(Fig. 5-a)
Mounted in the same manner as a reciprocating saw
blade. Make sure that the shank of the blade is fi tted into
the center cavity. (Fig. 6)
Pull the back of the saw blade two or three times by hand
and check that the blade is securely mounted. (Fig. 5-c)
*4 Dismounting the blade
CAUTION
Never touch the saw blade immediately after use. The
metal is hot and can easily burn your skin.
(1) After turning the blade holder, 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 blade holder is turned, 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. 7-b)
*5 Plunge cutting (for wood)
NOTE
○ Using the collar or the base as support, gradually cut in
from the tip of the blade.
○ As the base is metal, using it for support may scratch
or damage the surface depending on the material
being cut. In this case, use the collar as support. If you
remove the base when window cutting, make sure it is
re-attached to the tool when you continue operating the
tool.
