MAINTENANCE
Before each use, inspect the reciprocating saw, on/off switch and cord for damage. Check
for damaged, missing, or worn parts. Check for loose screws, misalignment or binding of
moving parts, or any other conditions that may affect the operation. If abnormal vibration
or noise occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have the problem corrected before
further use.
Before cleaning or performing any maintenance, the tool should be unplugged from the
power supply. Clean the clamp slot after each use; saw dust inside could affect saw blade
installation. Proper lubrication will expand clamp life. Using compressed air may be the
most effective cleaning method. Always wear safety goggles when cleaning tools with
compressed air.
