the trigger.
7. After the saw has reached full speed, gradually lower rear end of the saw until its base
rests on the work surface.
8. Advance saw along the cutting line up to the corner.
9. Release trigger and allow blade to stop completely before withdrawing the blade from
the work piece.
Never under any circumstances pull the saw backwards while the blade is in motion, as
kickback may result.
10. Use a jig saw or hand saw to cut the corners out clean.
11. When starting each new cut, repeat as above.
