Switching on and off
1. Connect the plug to the power
supply. The neon indicator
(1) indicates that power is
connected to the tool (Fig. F).
2. Depress the lock-off button
(3) (Fig. G) and squeeze the
trigger switch (2) (Fig. H).
3. The blade will take approximately 2 seconds to reach
full speed.
4. When you release the trigger, the machine turns off
and the lock-off button re-engages to prevent
accidental operation.
CAUTION. Allow the blade to come to a complete standstill
before setting the saw down.
Making a cut
1. Mark the line of cut on the
workpiece.
2. Adjust the depth of cut and
bevel angle as required.
3. When making 90° cross or rip
cuts, align your line of cut with
the outer blade guide notch on
the base of the saw (Fig. I).
4. When making 45° bevel cuts, align your line of cut with
the inner blade guide notch on the base of the saw.
5. Rest the front edge of the
base on the workpiece (Fig. J).
6. Start the motor by depressing
the lock-off button (3) and
squeezing the trigger switch (2).
Note. Always let the blade
reach full speed (approximately
2 seconds) before you begin to
cut into the work piece.
7. Slowly push the saw forward
using both hands (Fig. K).
8. When making a cut always
use steady, even pressure.
Forcing the saw causes rough
cuts and could shorten the life
of the saw or cause kickback.
Allow the blade and the saw to
do the work.
9. After completing your cut, release the trigger switch
and allow the blade to come to a complete stop.
Do not remove the saw from the work piece while
the blade is moving.
Note. Since blade thickness varies, always make a trial cut
in scrap material along the guideline to determine how much,
if any, the guideline must be offset to get an accurate cut.
