switch, press the lock-off button as shown in Fig. 3. Always lock the
switch when carrying or storing the tool to eliminate unintentional
starting. The lock-off button is colored red to indicate when the
switch is in its unlocked position.
TRIGGER SWITCH
Press the lock-off button as shown in Figure 3. Pull the trigger switch

position, and should never be locked ON by any other means.
The variable speed trigger switch will give you added versatility. The
further the trigger is depressed the higher the speed of the saw.
CAUTION: Use of very slow speed is recommended only for
beginning a cut. Prolonged use at very slow speed may damage
your saw.

Flush-To Cutting (Figure 7)
The compact design of the saw motor housing and spindle housing
permits extremely close cutting to floors, corners and other difficult
areas.
CAUTION: When sawing into walls, floors or wherever "live"
electrical wires may be encountered, DO NOT TOUCH ANY FRONT
METAL PARTS OF THE TOOL! Hold the tool only by the plastic
handle and housing to prevent electric shock if you saw into a "live"
wire.
CAUTION: Always wear eye protection while operating this power
tool.
Wood Cutting (Figure 8)
Before cutting any type of wood, be sure it is firmly anchored or
clamped to prevent slipping. Place blade lightly against work to be
cut, switch on saw motor and allow it to obtain maximum speed
before applying pressure. Always hold saw firmly with both hands
while cutting. Whenever possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly
against the material being cut. This will prevent the saw from jumping
or vibrating and minimize blade breakage.
Pocket Cutting (Fig. 9) (Wood Only)
The initial step in pocket cutting is to measure the surface area to be
cut and mark clearly with a pencil, chalk or scriber. Insert pocket
cutting blade in blade clamp and tighten blade clamp securely. Next,
tip the saw backward until the back edge of the shoe is resting on the
work surface. Now switch motor on, always permitting blade to attain
maximum speed. Grip handle steadily and begin a slow, deliberate
upward swing with the handle of the saw. Blade will begin to feed
into material. Always be sure blade is completely through material
before continuing with pocket cut.
