Control Panel - Panasonic EY45A1 Manual De Instrucciones

Holding the tool and pushing on it
Hold the tool securely with both hands.
There is no need to exert excessive
force on the tool while operating it. Ex-
ercise caution as applying excessive force
to the tool in a prying or pushing motion
may damage the tool.
When cutting in a small arc, a lower feed
speed will result.
Attempting to move the saw too quickly
may damage the reciprocating saw blade.
WARNING
• Do not remove the front cover.
Always hold the tool with your hand
on top of the front cover.
• After pausing or completing work, al-
ways turn off the switch and remove
the battery pack from the tool.
When choosing a reciprocating saw
blade, select a blade that protrudes
sufficiently far from the protective shoe
beyond the material being cut after the
stroke length (28 mm) has been sub-
tracted (Fig1).
Fig1
28mm
Attempting to cut a pipe, piece of lum-
ber, or other material that exceeds the
reciprocating saw blade's cutting capaci-
ty may cause the tip of the blade to strike
the inside of the pipe or the piece of lum-
ber, damaging the blade (Fig2).
Fig2
CAUTION
• Keep the protective shoe in contact
with the material being cut while op-
erating the tool.
• Failure to do so may cause the re-
ciprocating saw blade to be dam-
aged due to the resulting vibrations.
• When cutting in a small arc, a lower
feed speed will result.

(1) Battery low warning lamp
Off
(normal
operation)
Excessive (complete) discharging of
lithium ion batteries shortens their service
life dramatically. The tool includes a
battery protection feature designed to
prevent excessive discharging of the
battery pack.
• The battery protection feature acti-
vates immediately before the battery
loses its charge, causing the battery
low warning lamp to flash.
• If you notice the battery low warning
lamp flashing, charge the battery pack
immediately.
• If it is started with too little battery
power remaining, the tool may stop
operating without the battery low
warning lamp flashing first. This in-
dicates that there is too little battery
power remaining to use the tool, and
the battery pack should be charged
before further use.
• If the tool is subject to a sudden load
during use that causes the motor to
lock up, the overdischarge prevention
sensor may be triggered, and the bat-
tery low warning lamp may flash. The
lamp will stop flashing once you ad-
dress the cause of the motor's locking
up and cycle the trigger.
