TO REMOVE BLADE FROM SAW
WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not touch the the blade immediately after use. Contact with the blade may result in
personal injury.
1. Rotate blade clamp collar (F) to release position.
2. Remove blade.
OPERATION
WARNING: Always wear eye protection while operating this or any other power tool.
WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not touch the the blade immediately after use. Contact with the blade may result in
personal injury.
Before you begin work, ensure the material to be cut is rigid. Small workpieces should be securely clamped to the work
table.
PROPER HAND POSITION
Grasp the underside of the hand grip (G) with one hand and the rear handle (H) with the other hand.
Cutting (Fig. 6)
WARNING: Always wear eye protection while operating this power tool.
WARNING: Cut hazard. Exercise extra caution when cutting towards operator. Always hold saw firmly with both
hands while cutting.
Before cutting any type of material, be sure it is firmly anchored or clamped to prevent slipping. Place blade lightly
against work to be cut, depress the trigger switch and allow it to obtain maximum speed before applying pressure.
Whenever possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly against the material being cut. This will prevent the saw from
jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage. Any cut which puts pressure on the blade, such as angle or scroll
cuts, increase potential for vibration, kickback and blade breakage.
NOTE: The blade cuts on the down stroke leaving the cleanest edge on the underside of the material.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Use extra caution when cutting overhead and pay particular attention to overhead wires
which may be hidden from view.
WARNING: Use extra caution when cutting overhead and anticipate the path of falling branches and debris ahead
of time.
WARNING: Inspect work site for hidden gas pipes, water pipes, or electrical wires before making blind or plunge cuts.
Failure to do so may result in explosion, property damage, electric shock, and/or serious personal injury.
FLUSH-TO CUTTING (FIG. 7)
The compact design of the saw motor housing and spindle housing permits extremely close cutting to floors, corners and
other difficult areas. The blade can be installed upside-down to assist in flush-to cutting
POCKET/PLUNGE CUTTING – WOOD ONLY (FIG. 8)
WARNING: Shock hazard. Exercise extreme caution when blind cutting to ensure that there are no foreign objects
such as electrical wire, conduit, plumbing pipes, etc., that may come in contact with the blade.
NOTE: DO NOT attempt to pocket/plunge cut metal.
The initial step in pocket/plunge cutting is to measure the surface area to be cut and mark clearly with a pencil, chalk or
scriber. Use the appropriate blade for the application. The blade should be longer than 88.9mm (3-1/2") and should extend
past the shoe and the thickness of the workpiece during the cut. Insert blade in blade clamp.
Next, tip the saw backward until the back edge of the shoe is resting on the work surface and the blade clears the work
surface. Depress trigger switch to turn motor on, always permitting blade to attain maximum speed. Grip saw steadily and
begin a slow, deliberate upward swing with the handle of the saw. Blade will begin to feed into material. Always be sure
blade is completely through material before continuing with pocket/plunge cut.
NOTE: In areas where blade visibility is limited, use the edge of the saw shoe as a guide. Lines for any given cut should
be extended beyond edge of cut to be made.
METAL CUTTING (FIG. 9)
This unit has different metal cutting capacities depending upon type of blade used and the metal to be cut. Use a finer
blade for ferrous metals and a coarse blade for non-ferrous materials. In thin gauge sheet metals it is best to clamp
wood to both sides of sheet. This will insure a clean cut without excess vibration or tearing of metal. Always remember
not to force cutting blade as this reduces blade life and causes costly blade breakage. Start the cut on the surface
where the greatest number of teeth will contact the workpiece.
NOTE: It is generally recommended that when cutting metals you should spread a thin film of oil or other lubricant along
the line ahead of the saw cut for easier operation and longer blade life.
