2 Installing a Blade
Do not touch the tip of the blade
with your fingers.
Doing so may result in injury, and the
cutting performance of the blade will be
impaired.
Be sure to support the tool mounting screw from below when installing the blade holder.
Cutting quality may become poor if installed without supporting the screw in this way.
