FAQs
What does '1000V Safe' mean for this hacksaw?
It means the tool is insulated and tested to withstand up to 1000 volts, making it safe to use when working on or near live electrical circuits. It is certified to the IEC60900 2018 standard.
What is the overall length of the hacksaw?
The overall length of the Laser Junior Hacksaw is 285mm.
Can I use any standard hacksaw blade with this tool?
It is designed for 150mm blades. While it may accept other 150mm blades, it is recommended to use Laser Part No. 62823 for guaranteed compatibility and performance.
Is this hacksaw suitable for cutting metal pipes?
This is a junior hacksaw with a 150mm blade, best suited for smaller tasks and materials like plastic, thin metal sheeting, or conduit. It is not designed for heavy-duty pipe cutting.
How do I adjust the blade tension?
Blade tension is adjusted using the insulated knob located on the frame. Turn the knob to tighten or loosen the blade until it is taut for cutting.
What materials is the handle made from?
The handle is manufactured from polypropylene (PP) and non-slip thermoplastic (TPE) for durability and a secure grip.
Where can I get replacement blades?
Replacement blades are available under Laser Part No. 62823.
Troubleshooting
Blade won't tighten properly
Check that the blade is correctly seated in the frame's end slots. Ensure the tension knob is clean and free of debris. If the knob threads are damaged, consider replacing the hacksaw or knob mechanism.
Handle feels loose
Inspect the connection between the handle and the frame. Ensure all internal components of the handle assembly are secure. If the handle material appears damaged or compromised, replace the tool.
Poor cutting performance
Verify the blade is sharp and correctly tensioned. Ensure you are using the appropriate cutting technique for the material. If the blade is dull, replace it with a new one (Laser Part No. 62823).
Visible damage to insulation
Immediately stop using the hacksaw. Damaged insulation compromises the 1000V safety rating. Do not attempt to repair; replace the tool to ensure electrical safety.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure the hacksaw is unplugged from any power source and the work area is clear.
- Insert the 150mm saw blade into the designated slots on the frame.
- Tighten the blade by turning the insulated knob until the blade is taut. Test the tension by gently trying to flex the blade; it should have minimal give.
Compatibility:

- Specifically recommended for use with Laser Part No. 62823 replacement blades.

Care:
- After each use, clean the blade and frame with a dry cloth to remove debris.
- Store the hacksaw in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures.
- Periodically inspect the insulation on the handle and knob for any signs of damage (cracks, cuts). If damage is found, discontinue use immediately.
- Always ensure the blade is properly tensioned before use and loosened for storage if necessary to prolong blade and frame life.
