Maintenance - Ryobi RJ165V Manuel D'utilisation

WARNING:
Make sure the blade does not touch the workpiece until
the motor reaches full speed. Failure to heed this warning
can cause you to lose of control of the saw and result in
serious injury.
 Tilt the saw downward until the tip of the blade starts
cutting the workpiece.
 Allow the saw to penetrate the workpiece.
 Tilt the saw until the blade is perpendicular to the
workpiece.
WARNING:
blades longer than 6 in. can whip and should not be used
for plunge cutting. Failure to heed this warning can result
in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Cutting into electrical wiring can cause the blade, the blade
clamp, and the saw bar assembly to become electrically
live. Do not touch metal parts when cutting into a wall;
grasp only the insulated surfaces on the tool. Make sure
hidden electrical wiring, water pipes, and mechanical haz-
ards are not in the blade path when cutting into a wall.
WARNING:
When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
Use of any other parts may create a hazard or cause
product damage.
WARNING:
Always wear eye protection with side shields marked to
comply with ANSI Z87.1. Failure to do so could result in
objects being thrown into your eyes resulting in possible
serious injury.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use. Use
clean cloths to remove dirt, dust, oil, grease, etc.
OPERATION
METAL CUTTING
See Figure 7, page 10.
You may cut metals such as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods,
aluminum, brass, and copper with the saw.
Observe the following tips when metal cutting:
 be careful not to twist or bend the saw blade.
 Do not force the tool and use a slow speed setting.
 Use cutting oil when cutting soft metals and steel. Cutting
oil also keeps the blades cool, increases cutting action,
and prolongs blade life.
 Never use gasoline since normal sparking of motor could
ignite fumes.
 Clamp the workpiece firmly and cut close to the clamping
point to eliminate any vibration of the work. When cutting
conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp the workpiece in a vise
if possible and cut close to the vise. To cut thin sheet
material, "sandwich" the material between hardboard or
plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration and
material tearing.
 Always keep firm pressure on the shoe to hold it securely
against the workpiece.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc., come in contact
with plastic parts. Chemicals can damage, weaken or
destroy plastic which may result in serious personal
injury.
Electric tools used on fiberglass material, wallboard, spack-
ling compounds, or plaster are subject to accelerated wear
and possible premature failure because the fiberglass chips
and grindings are highly abrasive to bearings, brushes,
commutators, etc. Consequently, we do not recommend
using this product for extended work on these types
of materials. However, if you do work with any of these
materials, it is extremely important to clean the product
using compressed air.
LUBRICATION
All of the bearings in this product are lubricated with a
sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the
unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further
lubrication is required.
