THE ON/OFF TRIGGER SWITCH

This machine is equipped with a safety start
trigger switch.
To start the motor:
• Push in the safety lock button on the
side of the handle with your thumb.
• Depress the main trigger switch to start the
motor.
WARNING: Never start the saw with the cutting
edge of the saw blade in contact
with the work-piece surface.
WARNING: Before leaving the machine, ensure
that the machine and the blade rotation has
come to a complete stop.
An unattended, live machine is
unpredictable and highly dangerous to people
in the vicinity.

MAKING A CUT

• With the cutting head in the upper position,
switch on the motor and allow it to reach full
operational speed.
• Gently lower the cutting head.
• Introduce the blade into the material slowly,
using light pressure at first to keep the blade
from grabbing.
• Gradually increase the pressure as a blade
enters the work-piece. Do not 'force' the
machine. Let the saw blade do the work.
Note: Cutting performance will not improve by
applying undue pressure on the machine, and
doing so may cause
blade and motor life to be reduced.
• Reduce the pressure as the blade begins to
exit the material.
• On completion of a cut allow the cutting
head to return to its upper position, and turn
off the motor.
• Only remove your hands, or the work-piece
from the machine, after the motor has
completely stopped and the stationary blade
is covered by the lower blade guard.

MAINTENANCE

Note: Any maintenance must be carried
out with the machine switched off and
disconnected from the mains/battery
power supply.
Check that all safety features and guards are
operating correctly on a regular basis. Only
use this machine if all
guards/safety features are fully operational.
All motor bearings in this machine are
lubricated for life.
No further lubrication is required.
Use a clean, slightly damp cloth to clean
the plastic parts of the machine. Do not use
solvents or similar products which could
damage the plastic parts.
WARNING: Do not attempt to clean by inserting
pointed objects through openings in the
machines casings etc. The machines air vents
should be cleaned using compressed dry air.
Excessive sparking may indicate the presence of
dirt in the motor or worn out carbon brushes.
