CAUTION:
Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool, always check to see that the switch
trigger actuates properly and returns to the "OFF" position when released.
To prevent the trigger from being acciden-
tally pulled,
a
lock-off lever is provided.
To
start the tool, slide the lock-off lever in
the direction of the arrow and pull the trig-
ger. Release the trigger to stop.
Operation
Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate 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.

minutes before proceeding with
a
fresh battery.
