SPARE PARTS
THIS MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR YOUR
BATTERY CHARGER.
1.
Before using the charger read all instructions and cautionary markings on the charger, battery pack
and the product using the battery pack.
2.
This charger is not intended for any uses other than charging rechargeable batteries. Any other use
may result in risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
3.
Do not place any object on top of the charger or place the charger on a soft surface that may result in
excessive internal heat. Place the charger in a position away from any heat source.
4.
To reduce risk of damage to the electric plug and cord, pull by the plug rather than the cord when
disconnecting the charger.
5.
Make sure the cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over, or otherwise subjected
to damage or stress.
6.
An extension cord should not be used unless absolutely necessary. Use of an improper extension cord
could result in the risk of fire, electric shock or electrocution.
7.
Do not operate the charger if it has received a sharp blow, been dropped or otherwise damaged in any
way. Have it checked by an electrician or power tool repairer.
8.
Do not disassemble charger. Take it to an electrician or power tool repairer when service or repair is
required. Incorrect reassembly may result in a risk of electric shock, electrocution or fire.
9.
To reduce risk of electric shock, unplug the charger from the outlet before attempting any cleaning.
Removing the battery pack will not reduce this risk.
10.
Never attempt to connect 2 chargers together.
11.
DO NOT store or use the tool and battery pack in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed
40ºC (such as inside sheds or metal buildings in summer).
12.
The charger is designed to operate on standard household electrical power (240 volts). Do not attempt
to use it on any other voltage!
13.
The battery pack is not fully charged out of the carton. First read the safety instructions and then
follow the charging notes and procedures.
14.
The longest life and best performance can be obtained if the battery pack is charged when the air
temperature is between 18 - 24ºC. Do not charge the battery pack in an air temperature below 10ºC or
above 40ºC. This is important and will prevent damage to the battery pack.
15.
Do not incinerate the battery pack even if it is seriously damaged or is completely worn out. The battery
can explode in a fire.
16.
Never attempt to open the battery pack for any reason. If the plastic housing of the battery pack breaks or
cracks, immediately discontinue use and do not recharge.
17.
During charging, the battery must be placed in a well ventilated area.
BATTERY AND CHARGER SAFETY WARNINGS
• Keep ventilation slots of the mitre saw clean at all times to ensure efficient
operation.
• After each use, blow air through the tool housing to ensure it is free from all dust,
dirt, etc. Build up of dust, dirt particles may cause the tool to overheat and shorten
the life of the tool.
• Empty the dust bag regularly.
• If the housing of the saw requires cleaning, do not use solvents but a moist soft cloth
or soft brush only.
• Never let any liquid get inside the tool, never immerse any part of the tool into liquid.
• No lubrication is necessary as the tool has sealed bearings.
• When not in use, the mitre saw should be stored in a dry, frost free location not
within the reach of children.
WARNING!
ALWAYS ENSURE THE TOOL HAS
COMPLETELY STOPPED AND THE BATTERY IS
REMOVED PRIOR TO ANY MAINTENANCE.
Battery protection system
The tool is equipped with the battery protection system, which helps to ensure a long service
life.
The output power automatically cuts off during operation when the tool and/or battery are
placed under the following situations:
• When the tool is overloaded:
If this occurs, release the trigger switch and remove causes of overload, then pull the
switch trigger again to restart.
• When the remaining battery capacity becomes low:
Recharge the battery pack.
Note:
The battery protection system does not in any way damage the tool.
Note:
The indicated capacity may be lower than the actual level during use or immediately
after using the tool.
LED lights do not illuminate on charger
Check the charging adaptor is securely plugged into the wall out let.
Check the battery is firmly connected to the charging cradle.
Check that the charging jack is securely connected to the charging cradle.
The battery has a short run time
Ensure the battery is properly charged. It will take 4-5 charging cycles before the battery
reaches optimum charge and run time. On the initial charge, the battery requires 5 hours
of charging. Subsequent charging only requires 3-5 hours.
Sparking visible through the housing air vents
A small amount of sparking may be visible through the housing vents. This is normal
and does not indicate a problem.
Worklight or laser line is not turning on
The worklight only turns on once a charged battery is fitted and the worklight or laser
light switch is switch on.
Ensure the light source is not covered in dust. Use a dry cloth to wipe away dust.
Mitre Saw Tips
Allow the saw to reach full speed before beginning a cut.
Never force the saw. Use light and continuous pressure.
When cutting is interrupted, to resume cutting, start the saw and allow the blade to
reach full speed, re-enter the cut slowly and resume cutting.
When cutting across the grain, the fibres of the wood have a tendency to tear and lift.
Advancing the saw slowly minimizes this effect.
Note: Ozito Industries will not be responsible for any damage or injuries
caused by the repair of the circular saw by an unauthorised person or by mishandling
of the circular saw.
