Kawasaki 840089-1HR Cordless Saw User Manual


 
PLUNGE CUTTING
Never feed the blade into the work piece until the blade
is at full speed. If the blade is not at full speed, the saw may kick back
causing serious personal injury.
• Mark out the line to be cut so it is easily visible.
• Start inside the area to be cut out.
• Depress the lock-on button and press the trigger
to start the saw.
• Set the shoe against the work piece.
• When the blade reaches full speed, slowly feed the blade into the work piece.
METAL CUTTING
Never use gasoline or any flammable liquid as a
lubricant. Sparking from the motor may cause it to ignite into flames.
• When cutting metals other then copper, brass or aluminum, always use a lubri-
cant, such as cutting oil, to keep the blade cool. This will prolong the life of the
blade as well as speeding up the cutting process.
• Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces, such as
pipe or conduit, in a vise or attach to the workbench with clamps.
• To eliminate vibration, always cut close to the clamping point.
• When cutting thin sheets of metal, place a piece of plywood on either side to control
vibration and prevent tearing.
