lower guard does not move easily. At that time, use
the retracting lever to raise the lower guard for
starting cut and as soon as blade enters the

with a new one.

aluminum, wood, plastics, concrete, tile, etc. Cut
only mild steel.
• Do not touch the saw blade, workpiece or cutting
chips with your bare hand immediately after cutting,

skin.
• Always use the carbide-tipped saw blades
appropriate for your job. The use of inappropriate
saw blades may cause a poor cutting performance
and/or present a risk of personal injury.
