ENGLISH
● Insert the blade shaft into the blade clamp with the teeth of
the blade facing up.
● Adjust the angle of the handle on the tool so you are as
close to the work surface as possible.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
sawing wood.
● Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal. Use a fine-
tooth saw blade for ferrous metals and a coarser saw
blade for non-ferrous metals.
● When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap
wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
this sandwich.
● Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.
Pocket cutting in wood
● Measure and mark the required pocket cut.
● Fit a saw blade suitable for pocket cutting.
● Rest the shoe (3) on the workpiece in such a position that
the blade forms an appropriate angle for the pocket cut.
● Switch on the tool and slowly feed the blade into the
workpiece. Make sure that the shoe (3) remains in contact
with the workpiece at all times.
Cutting branches
Branches up to 25 mm in diameter can be cut with this tool.
Warning! Do not use the tool while in a tree, on
a ladder or on any other unstable surface. Be
aware of where the branch will fall.
● Cut downward and away from your body.
● Make the cut close to the main branch or tree body.
Vertical cutting
The tool allows close cutting to corners and other
difficult areas.
● Insert the shank of the saw blade into the blade holder
with the teeth of the blade facing upward.
● Hold the tool with the shoe (3) facing downward so that
you are as close to the work surface as possible.
● Cut forward and away from your body.

Blades
The saw will accept a blade up to 30 cm long. Always use
the shortest blade suitable for your project but long enough
to keep the blade cutting through the material. Longer blades
are more likely to be bent or damaged during use. During
operation some longer blades may vibrate or shake if the saw
is not kept in contact with the workpiece.

Your STANLEY tool has been designed to operate over a long
period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous
