9. Let the blade reach full speed BEFORE you enter
the workpiece, starting your cut.
10. Press down on the saw, keeping the front of the
base flat against the workpiece as you slowly
push the saw's blade into the workpiece.
11. Carefully guide the saw through the line of cut. DO
NOT bind the blade in the cut; push the saw blade
forward at a rate where the blade is not laboring.
When the cut is complete, release the trigger
safety release and paddle switch and let the blade come to a complete
stop.
DO NOT REMOVE the saw and blade from the workpiece while the blade
is moving. This could damage your cut (kerf), cause kickback, loss of
control, and result in serious injury.
12. When the blade and saw are clear of and removed from the workpiece,
the lower blade guard and base will be able to automatically drop down
and the blade guard release lever will engage the upper blade guard,
locking the blade above the base.

3.
When making cross or rip cuts, align your line of cut with the center of the
cut guide indicator (15) located on the front of the saw's base.
Since the thickness of blades varies, MAKE A TRIAL CUT in scrap
material along the guideline to determine how much, if any, you should
offset the blade from the guideline to allow for the kerf of the blade to get
an accurate cut.
MAKING RIP CUTS
ALWAYS use a guide when making long or wide rip cuts with your saw. You
can use either a straight edge (sold separately), or use the edge guide that is
included with your saw.
