OPERATION
OPERATING THE SAW
See Figures 13 - 15.
It is important to understand the correct method for operat-
ing the saw. Refer to the figures in this section to learn the
correct and incorrect ways for handling the saw.
WARNING:
To make sawing easier and safer, always maintain proper
control of the saw. Loss of control could cause an ac-
cident resulting in possible serious injury.
DANGER:
When lifting the saw from the workpiece, the blade is
exposed on the underside of the saw until the lower blade
guard closes. Make sure the lower blade guard is closed
before setting the saw down.
To make the best possible cut, follow these helpful hints.
n Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
n Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making
a cut.
n Support the workpiece so that the cut (kerf) is always to
your side.
n Support the workpiece near the cut.
n Clamp the workpiece securely so that the workpiece will
not move during the cut.
n Always place the saw on the workpiece that is supported,
not the “cut off” piece.
n Place the workpiece with the “good” side down.
n Draw a guideline along the desired line of cut before
beginning your cut.
n Keep the cord away from the cutting area. Always place
the cord to prevent it from hanging up on the workpiece
while making a cut.
