Using the DeWalt DCS387D1 reciprocating saw is easy. First, charge the DCB203 XR Li - ion 2.0Ah battery with the DCB112 charger. Once the battery is charged, insert it into the saw. To change the blade, use the 4 - Position Blade Clamp for a quick, tool - free change. You can control the cutting speed with the variable speed trigger according to your needs. When working in dark areas, turn on the LED light to improve visibility. The pivoting shoe can be adjusted to fit different cutting situations. As for maintenance, after each use, clean the saw to remove any debris. Store the saw and the battery in a dry place. Avoid overcharging the battery and don't expose the saw to extreme temperatures. If you have any problems, contact DeWalt's customer service.
