Things to consider when cutting wood
• Press the trigger switch. Allow the blade to reach the
highest speed before applying pressure on the work piece.
Penetrating Cut (only in wood)
To make cuts which cannot be made from an edge, like
walls or floors:
• Lean the pivot type shoe edge on the work piece so the
blade will be approximately at 10 degrees from the work
piece surface (E).
• Slowly press the trigger switch to make the blade come
out completely from the saw.
• Without lifting the pivot type shoe support the blade
onto the work surface (F).
• Start the cut while changing the blade's tilting until it is
almost perpendicular to the work piece (G).
• Use high gauge blades to make this type of cuts easier.
• To cut harder woods start the cut from a hole that has
previously been drilled and big enough to allow the blade
go into the material.
• These types of cuts can be made with the blade teeth
facing upwards or downwards depending on the work
piece position (H).
Things to consider when cutting metal
• Press the trigger switch and keep the blade at low speed
before applying pressure to the work piece. Then, increase
the speed lightly.
• Use finer blades for ferrous metals and thicker blades for
non-ferrous metals.
• When cutting thin metals (sheet) ALWAYS fasten both
sides of the sheet. This will deliver a clean free of
excessive vibration or tearing the metal (I).

Apply a thin layer of oil or other
cooling material along the line
where the blade is passing (J).
It will make the operation easier
and will help to lengthen the
blade useful life. Use kerosene
when cutting aluminum.
