LINE GUIDE
For a straight 90° cut, use right side of notch
in the foot. For 45° bevel cuts, use the left side
(Fig. 9). The cutting guide notch will give an
approximate line of cut. Make sample cuts in
scrap lumber to verify actual line of cut. This
will be helpful because of the number of
different blade types and thicknesses
available. To ensure minimum splintering on
the good side of the material to be cut, face
the good side down.
When starting the tool,
!
WARNING
hold it with both hands.
The torque from the motor can cause the tool
to twist.
To turn tool "ON", press the release button
with your thumb on either side of handle to
disengage the lock, then squeeze the trigger
switch. To turn the tool "OFF", release the
trigger switch, which is spring loaded and will
return to the off position automatically and lock
the trigger.
Your saw should be running at full speed
BEFORE starting the cut, and turned off only
AFTER completing the cut. To increase switch
life, do not turn switch on and off while cutting.

takes for the blade to come to a complete
stop during coast down. Do not allow the
saw to brush against your leg or side,

could catch on your clothing and expose
the blade. Be aware of the necessary blade
exposures that exist in both the upper and
lower guard areas.
When cutting is interrupted, to resume cutting:

BEVEL CUTS
When cutting across the grain, the fibers of
the wood have a tendency to tear and lift.
Advancing the saw slowly minimizes this
effect. For a finished cut, a cross cut blade or
miter blade is recommended.
CUTTING MASONRY/METAL
This tool is not recommended for continuous
and general usage with metal or masonry cut-
off wheels. If you use your saw for cutting
these materials, use the appropriate wheel for
the material being cut.
When cutting masonry, do not cut a depth of
more than 1/4 inch (6 mm). Make successive
passes to achieve desired depth. Apply a light
forward pressure. Do not overload motor.
Disconnect plug from power source and clean
dust from air vents frequently. Metal cutting is
done at full depth.
Clean guards frequently to

WARNING
