TO HELP MAINTAIN CONTROL:
• Always support your workpiece near the cut.
• Support your workpiece so the cut will be on your left.
• Clamp your workpiece so it will not move during the
cut.
Place your workpiece with its good side down.
Note: The good side is the side on which appearance is
important.
Before beginning a cut, draw a guideline along the desired
line of cut. Then place front edge of base on that part of
your workpiece that is solidily supported. See Figure 16.
Never place your saw on that part of the workpiece
that will fall off when the cut is made. See Figure 18
Hold your saw firmly with both hands.
See Figure 19.

Depress the lock-off button and squeeze the switch trigger
to start your saw. Always let the blade reach full speed,
then guide your saw into the workpiece.
,_ WARNING: The blade coming in contact with the
workpiece before it reaches full speed could cause
your saw to "kickback" towards you resulting in
serious injury.
When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Forcing
causes rough cuts, could shorten the life of your saw and
could cause "kickback."
REMEMBER:
When sawing through work, the lower blade guard
does not cover the blade, exposing it on the
underside of work, Keep your hands and fingers away
from cutting area, Any part of your body coming in
contact with the moving blade will result in serious
injury.
After you complete your cut release the trigger and allow
the blade to come to a complete stop. Do not remove
your saw from workpiece while the blade is moving.
,_ CAUTION: When lifting your saw from the
workpiece, the blade is exposed on the underside of
your saw until the lower blade guard closes. Make
sure lower blade guard is closed before setting your
saw down on work surface.
