Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front grip
and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool. If both
hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by the blade. Set
the base on the workpiece to be cut without the blade making
any contact. Then turn the tool on and wait until the blade
attains full speed. Now simply move the tool forward over the
workpiece surface, keeping it flat and advancing smoothly
until the sawing is completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your
speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to properly follow
your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the tool
back to the cut line. Doing so may bind the blade and lead to
dangerous kickback and possible serious injury. Release
switch, wait for blade to stop and then withdraw tool. Realign
tool on new cut line, and start cut again. Attempt to avoid
positioning which exposes operator to chips and wood dust
being ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid
injury.
Rip fence (Guide rule)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate straight
cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against the side of
the workpiece and secure it in position with the screw on the
front of the base. It also makes repeated cuts of uniform
width possible.
Plunge cuts (Pocket cutting)
WARNING:
• Never touch the lower guard during operation.
• Never wedge or tie the lower guard open. For example,
do not wedge or tie the retracting lever. Then lower
guard must always be kept free and in no way restricted
in its movement. It must automatically close immediately
after the cut is completed and the tool is raised.
• As soon as you start the cut, release the retracting lever.
The lower guard contact with the workpiece will keep it in
position to open freely as you start the cut.
• Lower guard should be retracted manually only for
special cuts such as “Pocket Cuts” and “Compound
Cuts.” Raise lower guard by Retracting Lever. As soon
