MOUNTING AND DISMOUNTING THE SAW

BLADE

CAUTION

To avoid serious accident, ensure the switch is in the

OFF position, and the power source is disconnected.

1. Dismounting the saw blade

(1) Set the cutting volume at maximum, and place the

Circular Saw as shown in Fig. 8.

(2) Depress the lock lever, lock the spindle, and remove

the hexagonal-socket bolt with the Hex. bar wrench.

(3) While holding the lower guard lever to keep the

lower guard fully retracted into the saw cover,

remove the saw blade.

2. Mounting the Saw Blade

(1) Thoroughly remove any sawdust which has

accumulated on the spindle, bolt and washers.

(2) As shown in Fig. 9, the side of Washer (A) with

a projected center the same diameter as the inner

diameter of the saw blade and the concave side

of Washer (B) must be fitted to the saw blade sides.

* Washer (A) is supplied for 2 types of saw blades

with the hole diameters of 16 mm and 30 mm.

(When buying the Circular Saw, one type of

washer (A) is supplied.)

In case the hole diameter of your saw blade

does not correspond to that of washer (A), please

contact the shop where you purchased the

Circular Saw.

(3) To assure proper rotation direction of the saw blade,

the arrow direction on the saw blade must coincide

with the arrow direction on the saw cover.

(4) Using the fingers, tighten the hexagonal-socket bolt

retaining the saw blade as much as possible. Then

depress the lock lever, lock the spindle, and

thoroughly tighten the bolt.

CAUTION

After having attached the saw blade, reconfirm that the

lock lever is firmly secured in the prescribed position.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

1. Inspecting the saw blade

Since use of a dull saw blade will degrade efficiency

and cause possible motor malfunction, sharpen or

replace the saw blade as soon as 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. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 10)

The motor employs carbon brushes which are

consumable parts. Since an excessively worn carbon

brush can result in motor trouble, replace the carbon

brushes with new ones having the same carbon

brush No. shown in the figure when it becomes

worn to or near the “wear limit”. In addition, always

keep carbon brushes clean and ensue that they

slide freely within the brush holders.

CAUTION

⅜ When replacing the new carbon brushes, always

use genuine Hitachi carbon brushes with the number

specified in the drawing.

⅜ For models C6BU2 and C7BU2, the brake may not

work if other than the specified carbon brushes are

used.

When the brake becomes ineffective, replace the

carbon brushes with new ones.

4. Replacing carbon brushes

Disassemble the brush caps with a slotted-head

screwdriver. The carbon brushes can then be easily

removed.

5. 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.

6. Adjusting the base and saw blade to maintain

perpendicularity

The angle between the base and the saw blade has

been adjusted to 90°, however should this

perpendicularity be lost for some reason, adjust in

the following manner:

(1) Turn the base face up (Fig. 11) and loosen the wing-

nut and wing-bolt (Fig. 4 (A), Fig. 4 (B)).

(2) Apply a square to the base and the saw blade and

turning the slotted set screw with a slotted-head

screwdriver, shift the position of the base to produce

the desired right angle.
