OPERATION
Release the blade clamp to secure.
To remove the blade, rotate the blade clamp counter-
clockwise.
TURNING THE SAW ON/OFF
See Figure 3, page 8.
To turn the saw on: Set the lock-off switch to the
unlocked position. Pull the switch trigger.
To turn the saw off: Release the switch trigger. Set the
lock-off switch to the locked position.
VARIABLE SPEED
See Figure 3, page 8.
The variable speed switch trigger delivers higher speed with
increased trigger pressure and lower speed with decreased
trigger pressure.
LED GRIP LIGHT
The LED work light, located on the front of the saw head,
illuminates when either the switch trigger or grip light switch
is depressed.
ORBITAL ACTION SELECTOR
See Figure 4, page 8.
Use the orbital action selector to select either a linear stroke
or orbital cutting action. A linear stroke is best for making
smooth cuts while orbital action is best for making a faster cut.
Remove the battery pack.
For linear cutting, turn the selector to the "OFF" position.
For orbital cutting action, turn the selector to the "ON"
position.
NOTE: To prevent damage to the tool, always allow motor
to come to a complete stop before using the orbital action
selector.
NOTE: Do not use the orbital action setting when using a
metal cutting blade.
OPERATING THE SAW
See Figures 5 - 6, page 8.
Secure the workpiece to a work bench or table with a
vise or with clamps.
Mark the line of cut clearly.
Make sure the saw blade teeth are clear of any foreign
material.
Hold the saw firmly in front of and clearly away from you.
Set the lock-off switch to the unlocked position. Depress
the switch trigger to start the cutting action.
Set the shoe assembly against the workpiece.
Move the blade into the workpiece.
NOTE: Do not force. Use only enough pressure to keep
the saw cutting. Let the blade and saw do the work. Keep
pressure on the base, against the workpiece.
PLUNGE CUTTING WOOD OR WALL BOARD
See Figure 7, page 8.
Secure the workpiece to a work bench or table with a
vise or with clamps.
Mark the line of cut clearly.
Make sure the saw blade teeth are clear of any foreign
material.
Hold the saw firmly in front of and clearly away from you.
Choose a convenient starting point inside the cutting area
and place the tip of the blade over that point.
Rest the front edge of the shoe assembly on the workpiece
and hold it firmly in position during the cut.
Set the lock-off switch to the unlocked position. Depress
the switch trigger and allow the saw blade to reach full
cutting speed.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade does not touch the workpiece
until the motor reaches full speed. Failure to heed
this warning can cause you to lose of control of
the saw and result in serious injury.
Tilt the saw downward until the tip of the blade starts
cutting the workpiece.
Allow the saw to penetrate the workpiece.
Tilt the saw until the blade is perpendicular to the
workpiece.
WARNING:
Blades longer than 6 in. can whip and should not
be used for plunge cutting. Failure to heed this
warning can result in serious personal injury.
WARNING:
Cutting into electrical wiring can cause the blade,
the blade clamp, and the saw bar assembly to
become electrically live. Do not touch metal parts
when cutting into a wall; grasp only the insulated
surfaces on the tool. Make sure hidden electrical
wiring, water pipes, and mechanical hazards are
not in the blade path when cutting into a wall.
METAL CUTTING
See Figure 8, page 8.
You may cut metals such as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods,
aluminum, brass, and copper with the saw.
Observe the following tips when metal cutting:
Be careful not to twist or bend the saw blade.
Place the orbital action selector in the linear stroke
position (OFF).
