FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION • 001663 1 CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool. Adjusting the shoe When the blade loses its cutting efficiency in one place along its cutting edge, reposition the shoe to utilize a sharp, unused portion of its cutting edge. This will help to lengthen the life of the blade. To reposition the shoe, loosen the lever counterclockwise and slide the shoe forward or back to the desired position.
Installing or removing the saw blade • CAUTION: Always clean out all chips or foreign matter adhering to the blade, blade clamp and/or slider. Failure to do so may cause insufficient tightening of the blade, resulting in a serious injury. For JR3030 002508 1 1. Hex wrench To install the blade, loosen the screw on the blade clamp with the hex wrench. Insert the blade between the blade clamp and the slider so that the pin on the slider fits into the hole in the blade shank.

CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
