Risoluzione dei problemi

Blade does not extend or retract smoothly:

Check for debris or obstructions in the blade channel. Clean as described in the Maintenance section. Ensure the blade is correctly seated.

Difficulty changing blade:

Ensure the quick-change button is fully depressed. The blade should slide out and in without excessive force. If resistance is met, check for bent blades or internal obstructions.

Blade feels loose:

Verify that the blade is fully inserted and the quick-change button has been released, allowing the interlocking nose design to secure the blade. If the issue persists, replace the blade with a new one.
