2. Cutting lumber
(1) When cutting lumber, make sure that the
workpiece is fastened firmly before
beginning. (Fig. 21)
(2) You can cut efficiently if the speed of the saw
blade is set to dial scale “5”.
(3) You can cut efficiently if the change lever
position is set to swing cutting (Fig. 15).
Alternatively, you can cut cleanly if the
change lever position is set to straight cutting
(Fig. 14).
CAUTION: Never apply any unreasonable
force to the saw blade when
cutting. Also remember to press
the base against the lumber
firmly.
3. Sawing curved lines
We recommend that you use the BIMETAL
blade mentioned in Page 19 for the saw blade
since it is tough and hardly breaks.
CAUTION: Delay the feed speed when cutting the material into small circular arcs.
An unreasonably fast feed may break the blade.
4. Plunge cutting
With this tool, you can perform pocket cutting
on plywood panels and thin board materials.
You can carry out pocket cutting quite easily
with the saw blade installed in reverse as
illustrated in Fig. 23, Fig. 25, and Fig. 27. Use the
saw blade that is as short and thick as possible.
We recommend for this purpose that you use
BI-METAL Blade No. 132 mentioned in Page 19.
Be sure to use caution during the cutting
operation and observe the following procedures.
(1) Press the lower part (or the upper part) of the
base against the material. Pull the switch
trigger while keeping the tip of the saw
blade apart from the material. (Fig. 22, Fig.
23)
(2) Raise the handle slowly and cut in with the
saw blade little by little. (Fig. 24, Fig. 25)
(3) Hold the body firmly until the saw blade
completely cuts into the material. (Fig. 26,
Fig. 27)
