workpiece is no longer easily visible, remove the battery

cartridge and clean the guard carefully with a damp

cloth. Do not use solvents or any petroleum-based

cleaners on the plastic guard because this may cause

damage to the guard.

For cleaning, raise the blade guard by referring to

battery cartridges are removed.

the supplied hex wrench with holding the center cover.

cover and tighten the hex socket bolt by performing the

vice center for replacement. DO NOT DEFEAT OR
