you carefully do as follows.
(1) Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base, with
the blade point positioned just above the workpiece
surface.
(2) Apply pressure to the tool so that the front edge of
the base will not move when you switch on the tool
and gently lower the back end of the tool slowly.
(3) As the blade pierces the workpiece, slowly lower the
base of the tool down onto the workpiece surface.
(4) Complete the cut in the normal manner.
Finishing edges
To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the
blade lightly along the cut edges.
Metal cutting
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting
metal. Failure to do so will cause significant blade wear. The
underside of the workpiece can be greased instead of using
a coolant.
Dust extraction
The dust nozzle (optional accessory) is recommended to
perform clean cutting operations.
To attach the dust nozzle on the tool, insert the hook of dust
nozzle into the hole in the base.
