OPERATION
006903
CAUTION:
Always press the shoe firmly against the workpiece
•
during operation. If the shoe is removed or held
away from the workpiece during operation, strong
vibration and/or twisting will be produced, causing
the blade to snap dangerously.
Always wear gloves to protect your hands from hot
•
flying chips when cutting metal.
Be sure to always wear suitable eye protection
•
which conforms with current national standards.
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when
•
cutting metal. Failure to do so will cause premature
blade wear.
Press the shoe firmly against the workpiece. Do not allow
the tool to bounce. Bring the blade into light contact with
the workpiece. First, make a pilot groove using a slower
speed. Then use a faster speed to continue cutting.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the
•
battery cartridge is removed before attempting to
perform inspection or maintenance.
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
•
like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
