4. Storing the hexagonal bar wrench
(1) Insert in a hole on the side of the main unit with
holding the short side horizontally as shown in
Fig. 2.
(2) Rotate with the hexagonal bar wrench inserted and
secure as shown in Fig. 2.
ADJUSTING THE GUIDE ROLLER
The guide roller, shown in Fig. 3, is employed to prevent
the blade from snapping. Prior to use, adjust guide roller in
accordance with the following procedures:
(1) Loosen the holder set screw with the accessory
hexagonal bar wrench.
(2) Gently slide the guide roller until the roller groove lightly
touches the back of the blade.
NOTE
On delivery from the factory, there is a gap of about
3 mm between the roller and blade.
(3) Firmly tighten the holder set screw.
CAUTION
○ The guide roller can be used only for Blades that
have a straight line on the rear that is longer than
50 mm. (Fig. 4A and 4B) When using other types of
blades (Fig. 4C), slide the guide roller in backwards
so that the guide roller does not contact the blade.
○ When cutting thick boards or performing continuous
cutting operations, use the blade shown in the
Fig. 4A, 4B and be sure to set the guide roller.
CHIP COVER POSITIONING
1. Chip cover
Use the chip cover to reduce flying of cut particles and
to easily operate the saw.
Slide the chip cover while lightly pressing its front
section.
The chip cover can be set at three positions as shown in
Fig. 5.
2. How to choose the position of the chip cover
Set the chip cover to the first step when attaching or
removing the blade.
Set the chip cover to the second step when cutting
wooden materials.
Set the chip cover to the second or third step when
cutting metal materials such as steel.
CAUTION
○ Keep always the chip cover in the low position when
operating the tool.
○ Wear protection glasses even if the chip cover is used.
ADJUSTING THE BLADE OPERATING SPEED
The blade operating speed can be adjusted within a range
of 0 to 3,000 min according to the degree that the trigger
–1
switch is depressed. Select the speed appropriate to the
material being worked and/or the working conditions.
To achieve continuous operation, pull the trigger switch
all the way back and depress the stopper. Then, turn the
speed adjustment knob to adjust the blade operating
speed as desired.
NOTE
The speed adjustment knob rotates approximately 1.5
turns. To turn the switch OFF, pull the trigger switch again
to disengage the stopper, and release the trigger switch.

CUTTING
CAUTION
○ While sawing, the base must be firmly in contact with
the material surface, and the blade must be held at a
right angle. If the base becomes separated from the
material, it could cause the blade to break.
○ When cutting while holding the front surface, be careful
of the moving blade and hold the upper part firmly.
1. Rectilinear cutting
(1) To ensure accurate rectilinear cutting, employ the
optional accessory guide as shown in Fig. 6.
(2) Use the splinter guard to reduce roughness of the
cutting surface of wooden materials. Attach the splinter
guard by inserting it from the front section of the base
until it clicks into place. (Fig. 7)
CAUTION
Set the base in the front position when using the splinter
guard.
2. Cutting a circle or a circular arc
To ensure efficient cutting, employ the optional
accessory guide and nail or wood screw as shown in
Fig. 8.
When mounting the guide, loosen the base bottom
screw, and shift the base as far forward as it will go.
3. Sawing curved lines
When sawing a small circular arc, reduce the feeding
speed of the machine. If the machine is fed too fast, it
could cause the blade to break.
4. Cutting metallic materials
Always use an appropriate cutting agent (spindle
oil, soapy water, etc.). When a liquid cutting agent is
not available, apply grease to the back surface of the
material to be cut.
5. Pocket cutting
(1) In lumber
Aligning the blade direction with the grain of the wood,
cut step by step until a window hole is cut in the center
of the lumber. (Fig. 9)
(2) In other materials
When cutting a window hole in materials other than
lumber, initially bore a hole with a drill or similar tool
from which to start cutting.
6. Angular cutting
Set the chip cover to the first step. (Fig. 5)
To adjust the angle of inclination; loosen the base
bottom screw, shift the base position to the side groove
of the semicircular portion, align the scale on the base
semicircular portion (figures engraved on the scale
indicate the angle of inclination) with the housing edge
line, and thoroughly tighten the base bottom screw.
(Fig. 10 and 11)
CAUTION
Set the screw to the opposite side of the inclining side
when using the guide. (Fig. 12)
7. Dust produced in operation
CAUTION
○ To prevent accidents, turn the switch off and remove the
plug from the power supply when not in use.
○ For instruction on using the dust collector and
applicable cutting debris, please read the dust collector
instruction manual.
The dust produced in normal operation may affect
the operator's health. Either of following way is
recommended.
a) Wear a dust mask
b) Use external dust collection equipment
