TO REMOvE BLADE FROM SAW:
WARNING:
touch the the blade immediately after use.
Contact with the blade may result in
personal injury.
1. Open blade clamp release lever to its
full open position.
2. Remove blade.
FLUSh CUTTING (FIGURE F)
• The compact design of the recipro cating
saw motor housing and pivoting shoe
permit close cutting to floors, corners and
other difficult areas.
• To maximize flush cutting capabilities,
insert the blade shaft into the blade clamp
with the teeth of the blade facing up.
• Turn the saw upside down so you are as
close to the work surface as possible.
F
WOOD CUTTING (FIGURE G)
• Before cutting any type of wood, be sure
the work piece is firmly anchored or
clamped to prevent slipping.
• Place blade and shoe lightly against work
to be cut.
• Switch on saw motor before applying pressure.
• Always hold saw firmly with both hands
while cutting. Whenever possible, the
shoe must be held firmly against the
material being cut. This will prevent
the saw from jumping or vibrating and
minimize blade breakage.

Burn hazard. Do not
METAL CUTTING (FIGURE h)
• Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a
coarse blade for non-ferrous materials.
• In thin gauge sheet metals it is best
to clamp wood to the underside of the
sheet. This will ensure a clean cut without
excess vibration or tearing of metal.
• Avoid forcing cutting blade as this
reduces blade life and causes costly
blade breakage.
NOTE: You should spread a thin film of
oil or other coolant along the line ahead
of the saw cut for easier operation and
longer blade life. For cutting aluminum,
kerosene is preferred.

POCkET CUTTING - WOOD
ONLY (FIGURE I)
• Measure the surface area to be cut and
mark clearly with a pencil, chalk or scriber.
• Insert blade in blade clamp and tighten
blade clamp securely.
• Tip the saw backward until the bottom edge
of the shoe is resting on the work surface.
• Switch motor on, permitting blade to
attain maximum speed.
• Grip handle steadily and begin a slow,
deliberate upward swing with the handle
of the saw.
• The blade will begin to feed into material.
Always be sure blade is completely
through material before continuing with
pocket cut.
NOTE: IN AREAS WhERE BLADE
vISIBILITY IS LIMITED, USE ThE EDGE
OF ThE ShOE AS A GUIDE.

PROJECT TIPS
• Cut only with sharp blades; they cut
cleaner, faster and put less strain on the
motor while cutting.
