OPERATION
Fig. 8
Hold your saw firmly in front of and clearly away from you.
Make sure saw blade is clear of any foreign material. Be sure
material to be cut is held firmly. Small work pieces should be
securely clamped in a vise or with clamps to the work bench
or table. Mark the line of cut clearly. Depress the lock-off
button, then pull switch trigger to start the cutting action.
Place the base assembly against the work, then move the
blade into the work. Do not force. Use only enough pressure
to keep the saw cutting. Let the blade and saw do the work.
Use of excessive pressure that causes bending or twisting of
the blade may result in broken blades.
