Operation
Turn the tool on before contacting the
workpiece. Then rest the base flat on the
workpiece and gently move the tool for-
ward along the previously marked cutting
line.
Plunge cutting
Starting
a
cut
at
other than the edge of the
workpiece without first drilling
a
starting
hole requires
a
"plunge cut." This can be
accomplished by tipping the tool forward
until the front end of the base rests against
the workpiece. Switch the tool on and lower
the back end of the tool slowly, gradually
allowing the blade to saw through the wood
until the base
is
able to
sit
flat on the work-
piece. You may then proceed forward with
the cut in
a
normal manner.
If using
a
drill for
a
starting hole, bore
a
hole over
12
mm
(1/2")
in diameter. Then insert
the blade in
it
and proceed.
