HOW TO USE THE SAW
For protection of the operator, effective control of this powerful saw requires
two-handed operation. The saw may be operated either righthanded or left-
handed as shown in Fig. 14.
WARNING: It is important to support the work properly and to hold
the saw firmly to prevent loss of control which could cause personal
injury. Fig. 14 illustrates proper hand support of the saw.
Clamp work on a rigid support such as a bench or saw horses. See Fig. 14.
Mark the line of cut on the work. Be sure cut-off line is beyond end of support
to the left only enough to allow proper operation of the telescoping guard.
Place front edge of saw squarely on work before starting motor. Sight the
cutting line with the line of cut indicator (A), Fig. 9. Back saw up slightly and
start motor. Move saw forward keeping the edge of line indicator parallel to
line of cut.
CAUTION: Keep the cord away from the cutting area, so it does not
get hung up in the work being cut. See Fig. 14.
