tions. Please read the remaining portion of the
manual before attempting any type of operation.
Your safety is important! Please follow the
warnings below during this entire section:

tion while using this machine.

Figure 9. Variable speed knob.
It is important to adjust the blade speed for the
type of material being cut. Generally harder mate-
rials require a slower blade speed.
To adjust the blade speed:
Rotate the knob, shown in Figure 9, clockwise to
increase the blade speed, and counterclockwise
to reduce the speed.
The feed rate is the speed an operator moves the
workpiece through the saw blade. The correct
feed rate depends on the type of material, and its
thickness. When using the correct feed rate the
workpiece will move easily and the motor will run
smoothly. When feeding the work too quickly the
motor may bog down and the blade can break
causing serious injury.
