Before Use

WARNING: ALWAYS remove the battery before attaching or changing any accessories, or
making any adjustments.
Removing the Battery
To remove the Battery (10), press the Battery Release (9) and slide the Battery out of the Battery
Mount (8) (Fig. I (a-b))
Installing a charged Battery
1. To fit a charged Battery (10), slide it into the Battery Mount (8) (Fig. I (c))
Note: The Battery will fit only in one direction, which is determined by its shape and the design
of the Battery Mount. However, if the Battery does not slide into the Battery Mount easily, do not
force it. Instead, pull the Battery out of the Battery Mount again, check for correct position, and try
again gently.
2. Push the Battery into the Battery Mount until it locks into place securely
Setting up the Charger
1. If fitted, remove the Battery (10) from the Battery Charger (26) (Fig. II (b))
2. Connect the Battery Charger to the mains power supply
Note: The Green LED (28 on the Battery Charger will illuminate to indicate that the Charger is
powered.
WARNING: The Battery Charger is designed for indoor use only and must not be exposed to
moisture and rain.
Charging the Battery
WARNING: Failure to follow the correct procedure when charging the Battery (10) will result in
permanent damage.
Note: Normal charging time is 1 hour for a recently fully-discharged battery, but if the Battery has
been left in a discharged state for some time, it may take extended time to charge.
1. Slide a discharged or partially discharged Battery onto the Battery Charger (26) (Fig. II (a))
Note: Make sure the Battery and Battery Charger are lined up correctly. If the Battery does not slide
onto the Battery Charger easily, don't force it. Instead, remove the Battery, then check that the top of
the Battery and the Battery Charger slot are clean and undamaged and that the Charger Terminals
(29) are not bent.
2. Once charging commences, only the Red LED (27) will illuminate
Note: If the Red LED is not constantly illuminated after an uncharged Battery is inserted into the
Charger, the Battery or Charger may be faulty. Recheck the Battery is fully inserted in the Battery
Charger. If the fault persists do not use and contact your authorised Silverline distributer.
3. When the Battery is fully-charged, only the Green LED (28) will be illuminated
Battery Charge Level
The Battery has a built-in Battery Charge Indicator (11). Pressing on the button to the right will
indicate the charge level. The number of bars that illuminate when the button is pressed indicate
the charge level; 1 bar indicating a low charge, 3 bars indicating a full charge.
IMPORTANT: When a low charge level is indicated, be aware the tool may stop operating while in
use. This may be dangerous. It is recommended to always ensure the Battery has a good charge
level.
Notes about battery charging
IMPORTANT: Batteries are an expendable supply whose capacity shortens over time. Always adhere
to the correct handling and charging instructions in the manual. If the battery does not hold charge
or working time is shortened, purchase a genuine Silverline replacement.
• The battery should be charged at ambient temperatures between 10°C and 40°C (ideally
around 20°C)
• After charging, allow 15 minutes for the battery to cool before use
• Ensure that the charger is disconnected from the mains supply after use, and is stored correctly
• Do not leave batteries on charge for extended periods and never store batteries on charge
• The charger monitors battery temperature and voltage while charging. Remove the battery once
charging has been completed to maximise charge cycles of the battery and not waste power
• Batteries can become faulty over time, individual cells in the battery can fail, and the battery
could short. The charger will not charge faulty batteries. Use another battery, if possible, to
check correct functionality of the charger and purchase a replacement battery if a faulty battery
is indicated
• Do not store Lithium-ion battery packs in a discharged state long term. This can damage the
Lithium-ion cells. For long-term storage, store batteries in a high charge state disconnected
from the power tool
• The capacity of batteries will reduce over time. After 100 charge cycles, the battery's operation
time and the performance will slightly reduce. This decline will continue until the battery has
minimal capacity after 500 charge cycles. This is normal and not a fault with the battery pack

Fitting a blade
WARNING: ALWAYS ensure that the tool is switched OFF and the battery removed, before fitting
or removing saw blades.
WARNING: ALWAYS wear suitable cut-proof gloves when handling saw blades.
WARNING: ONLY fit blades that are in perfect condition. Blunt, bent, and cracked blades should
be discarded
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS use the correct blade type for the material to be cut (refer to the blade
manufacturer's guidelines before use)
1. Push and hold the Spindle Lock Button (22) inwards
2. Turn the Blade (19) by hand until you feel the spindle lock engage
3. Unscrew the Blade Securing Bolt (17) CLOCKWISE, using a 5mm hex key (Fig. III (a))
Note: The Blade Securing Bolt has a left-hand thread and as such operates in the opposite direction
to conventional right-hand threads
4. Release the Spindle Lock Button and remove the Blade Securing Bolt and washer, and the Blade
Securing Flange (18)
5. Use the Guard Retraction Lever (15) to rotate the Blade Guard (16) out of the way (Fig. III (b)), and
remove the Blade
Note: There is a secondary flange located on the spindle that is exposed when the blade is removed
(Fig. III (c)). Ensure this remains in place and is located correctly before fitting the new blade.
6. Fit the new Blade, ensuring the direction arrow on the Blade matches the direction indicated by
the Blade Direction Indicator (20)
7. Refit the Blade Securing Flange, ensuring a form-fit to the flattened part of the spindle, and refit
the Blade Securing Bolt and washer
8. Press and hold the Spindle Lock Button, and tighten the Blade Securing Bolt using a 5mm hex
key
9. Release the Spindle Lock Button and ensure the Blade is secure before use
Adjusting the bevel angle
Refer to Fig. IV
1. Loosen the Bevel Angle Lever (1). The Base Plate (13) will now be free to pivot
2. Select the angle required (0-45°), using the Bevel Angle Guide (2)
3. Tighten the Bevel Angle Lever
Note: To ensure accuracy, the angle between the Blade and the Base Plate should be checked using
a suitable protractor.

Adjusting the cutting depth

Refer to Fig. V
1. Loosen the Depth Locking Lever (23) by turning it clockwise. The Base Plate (13) is now free to
adjust to the required cutting depth
2. Adjust the Base Plate to the required depth using the scale on the Cutting Depth Guide (24)
3. Tighten the Depth Locking Lever firmly, to lock the Base Plate into position
Note: When set correctly, less than a full tooth of the Blade should be visible below the workpiece
Replacing the laser batteries.
The Laser (3) users 2 x LR44 button batteries.
1. Undo the screw on top of the Laser Battery Cover (4)
2. Remove the Laser Battery Cover
3. Remove the batteries
Note: Make a note of the orientation of the batteries in relation to the plus and minus terminals
4. Insert new replacement batteries
5. Replace the Battery Cover and secure using the screw
