4) Wear a dust mask, if the work
causes dust.
5) Wear ear protectors when using the
tool for extended periods.
6) Never wear knitted gloves.
7) Be sure to inspect material. Avoid
cutting other different material.
8) Be careful not to drop the tool.
9) Never swing the tool.

- 12 -
EN DANGER
10) Never cover the ventilation slots,
and keep them free from dust or
other material.
11) Do not clamp the tool in a vise.
Never cut with the tool held upside
down in a vise. This is extremely
dangerous and can lead to serious
accidents.
12) Be sure no one is below when using
the tool in high locations.
13) Do not touch the blade immediately
after operation. It may be hot and
could burn your skin.
14) Do not touch material after it has
been cut. Cut material may be very
hot.
15) Do not use cutting oil. This use of
cutting oil may cause a re.
16) Do not start the blade when in
contact with workpiece. Wait for
blade to reach full speed before
beginning cut.
17) Ensure sparks don’t strike your
body. This can cause burning.
18) When attaching or removing a saw
blade or preparing, inspecting or
storing the device, be sure to
remove the battery pack rst.
Failure to do this could lead to
unintended operation and injury.
19) Keep your hands and face away
from the saw blade and moving
parts.
Failure to do so can lead to injury.
20) Do not touch the saw blade,
discharge or frame after operation
as they may be hot.
This can lead to injury.
21) Fix the workpiece rmly.
Failure to x the workpiece properly
can lead to movement, damage to
the saw blade, or injury.
22) To prevent accidents, be sure to
switch off and remove the battery
pack from the device when operation
is interrupted or complete.
DANGER
23) Be sure to attach the saw blade
cover to the saw blade rotation
roller.
Failure to do so can lead to injury if
the saw blade slips off or is
damaged.
24) The saw blade, workpiece and
debris can be hot immediately after
cutting, so do not touch with bare
hands.
25) Do not put pressure on the grip
during cutting in an attempt to speed
up the process.
26) Do not cut heat-mouldable plastics.
The heat of cutting can cause the
workpiece to melt, making the saw
blade embed into the workpiece and
leading to the motor locking.
27) Do not cut hard workpieces such as
toughened steel.
This can cause damage to the saw
blade.
28) If the saw blade locks during cutting,
immediately switch off and suspend
operation.
29) Be sure to hold the grip and auxiliary
handle during use, holding with both
hands.
30) Periodically open the saw blade
rotation cover to remove debris.
Debris may build up within the frame
during continuous use.
31) If the device will not be used for a
long time, remove the saw blade
from the device before storage.

• Fix the workpiece rmly.
• Be sure to attach the saw blade cover.
CAUTION:
• Attach only after checking for
abnormalities such as splinters and
ssures on the saw blade.
• Wipe away any debris or dirt attached to
the saw blade rotation roller. Fitting an
oiled or greased saw blade to the saw
blade restraining bearing can cause the
saw blade to slip or come loose.
• When attaching a saw blade, avoid
twisting or folding at the join on the saw
blade.
• Keep your face away when exchanging a
saw blade as the saw blade can jump
out suddenly.
<Identifying an expired saw blade>
• A ruptured saw blade will not rotate
easily.
(Rotation may be accompanied by a
noise)
• A worm blade edge may lead to slower
cutting times.
These phenomena are indications that
the saw blade requires exchange.
Using the hook
The hook is intended for hanging on
stepladders, etc. and should not be used
to hang at your side on a belt. If the hook
is not required, the screw can be loosened
to remove it.
WARNING
• Do not hang the hook at your side such
as on a belt.
• Check that the hook is not unstable and
the screw is not loose.
Example of Use
Rubber belt inspection
A rubber belt is attached to the outer rim of
the saw blade rotation roller (inlay type).
Be sure to check the rubber belt for
tightness and damage whenever
exchanging the saw blade.
A loose or damaged rubber belt may
cause the saw blade to run unevenly or
jump out, so be sure to contact your
retailer in this event. [Fig.12]
WARNING
Periodically remove any debris from the
rubber belt.
Failure to do so may cause the saw
blade to slip or be unable to cut.

Flashing
(No charge)
Battery protection
feature active
Excessive (complete) discharging of
lithium ion batteries shortens their service
life dramatically.
The tool includes a battery protection
feature designed to prevent excessive
discharging of the battery pack.
• The battery protection feature activates
immediately before the battery loses its
charge, causing the battery low warning
lamp to ash.
• If you notice the battery low warning
lamp ashing, charge the battery pack
immediately.
• If it is started with too little battery power
remaining, the tool may stop operating
without the battery low warning lamp
ashing rst. This indicates that there is
too little battery power remaining to use
the tool, and the battery pack should be
charged before further use.
• If the tool is subject to a sudden load
during use that causes the motor to lock
up, the over-discharge prevention sensor
may be triggered, and the battery low
warning lamp may ash.
The lamp will stop ashing once you
address the cause of the motor’s locking
up and cycle the trigger.
CAUTION:
The over-discharge protection function
works even when both the battery low
warning lamp and LED light are ashing.
• Charge the battery pack immediately as
the battery power is getting low.
• When charging a cool battery pack
(below 0 °C (32 °F)) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place and
wait for more than one hour to warm up
the battery to the level of the ambient
temperature.
• Weaken and cut off the power applied as
the voltage of the battery is plummeting
due to the high load acting on the motor.
Do not carry out operations that will
repeatedly cause the over-discharge
prevention function to be activated.

EN (M) Overheat warning lamp (motor /
battery)
Off
(normal
operation)
Flashing: Overheat
Indicates operation has
been halted due to
battery overheating.
The overheating protection feature halts
tool operation to protect the battery pack
in the event of overheating. The overheat
warning lamp on the control panel ashes
when this feature is active.
• If the overheating protection feature
activates, allow the tool to cool
thoroughly (at least 30 minutes). The tool
is ready for use when the overheat
warning lamp goes out.
• Avoid using the tool in a way that causes
the overheating protection feature to
activate repeatedly.
• If the tool is used in cold-temperature
conditions (such as during winter) or if it
is frequently stopped during use, the
overheating protection feature may not
activate.
The performance of the EY9L42
deteriorates signicantly at and below
10 °C due to work conditions and other
factors.
• The ambient temperature range is
between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C (104 °F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0 °C
(32 °F), the tool may fail to function
properly.
• When charging a cool battery pack
(below 0 °C (32 °F)) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place and
wait for more than one hour to warm up
the battery to the level of the ambient
temperature.
[Battery Pack]
For Appropriate Use of
Battery Pack [Fig.13]
• The rechargeable batteries have a
limited life.
• For optimum battery life, store the Li-ion
battery pack following use without
charging it.
• When operating the battery pack, make
sure the work place is well ventilated.
For safe use
• The battery pack is designed to be
installed by proceeding two steps for
safety. Make sure the battery pack is
installed properly to the main unit before
use.
• If the battery pack is not connected rmly
when the switch is switched on, the
overheat warning lamp and the battery
low warning lamp will ash to indicate
that safe operation is not possible, and
the main unit will not rotate normally.
Connect the battery pack into the unit of
the tool until the red or yellow label
disappears.
[Battery Charger]
Charging
CAUTION:
1) If the temperature of the battery pack
falls approximately below −10 °C
(14 °F), charging will automatically
stop to prevent degradation of the
battery.
2) The ambient temperature range is
between 0 °C (32 °F) and 40 °C
(104 °F).
If the battery pack is used when the
battery temperature is below 0 °C
(32 °F), the tool may fail to function
properly.

EN
3) Use the charger at temperatures
between 0 °C and 40 °C, and charge
the battery at a temperature similar to
that of the battery itself. (There should
be no more than a 15 °C difference
between the temperatures of the
battery and the charging location.)
4) When charging a cool battery pack
(below 0 °C (32 °F)) in a warm place,
leave the battery pack at the place
and wait for more than one hour to
warm up the battery to the level of the
ambient temperature.
5) Cool down the charger when charging
more than two battery packs
consecutively.
6) Do not insert your ngers into contact
hole, when holding charger or any
other occasions.
7) To prevent the risk of re or damage
to the battery charger.
• Do not cover vent holes on the
charger and the battery pack.
• Unplug the charger when not in use.
NOTE:
Your battery pack is not fully charged at
the time of purchase. Be sure to charge
the battery before use.
How to charge
1. Plug the charger into the AC outlet.
NOTE:
Sparks may be produced when the plug
is inserted into the AC power supply,
but this is not a problem in terms of
safety.
2. Connect the battery pack rmly into the
charger.
1 Line up the alignment marks and
place the battery onto the dock on
the charger.
NOTE:
Not all battery packs display the
alignment mark (F) (on page 3).
2 Slide forward in the direction of the
arrow. [Fig.14 ]
3. During charging, the charging lamp will
be lit. When charging is completed, an
internal electronic switch will
automatically be triggered to prevent
overcharging.
• Charging will not start if the battery
pack is hot (for example, immediately
after heavy-duty operation).
The orange standby lamp will be
ashing until the battery cools down.
Charging will then begin automatically.
4. The charge lamp (green) will ash
slowly once the battery is approximately
80% charged.
5. When charging is completed, the
charging lamp in green colour will turn
off.
6. If the temperature of the battery pack is
0 °C or less, charging takes longer to
fully charge the battery pack than the
standard charging time.
Even when the battery is fully charged,
it will have approximately 50% of the
power of a fully charged battery at
normal operating temperature.
7. Consult an authorized dealer if the
charging lamp (green) does not turn off.
8. If a fully charged battery pack is
inserted into the charger again, the
charging lamp lights up. After several
minutes, the charging lamp in green
colour will turn off.
9. Remove the battery pack while the
battery pack release button is held up.
