l. Allow the saw to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from the workpiece.
NOTICE: When sawing fiberglass, plaster, wallboard, or spackling compound, clean the motor
vents frequently with a vacuum or with compressed air. These materials are highly abrasive
and may accelerate the wear on motor bearings and brushes.
WARNING
NOTICE: Cutting speeds should vary with the workpiece. Hard materials, such as metals,
require lower speeds; use the higher speeds for softer materials.

Plunge Cutting (Fig .9)
Your reciprocating saw is ideal for plunge cutting
directly into non-metal surfaces that cannot be cut
from an edge, such as walls or floors.
WARNING
a. Depress the lock-off button to the locked
position and then remove the battery pack
from the tool.
b. Make sure that the workpiece is firmly clamped
in place to keep it from slipping or moving
while cutting.
c. Select the appropriate type and size of blade
for the workpiece material and size. Install the
blade onto the tool.
d. Check the pivot shoe to make sure that the
blade will extend beyond the shoe and through
the workpiece at all times.
e. Check for clearance behind the workpiece so
that the blade will not contact another surface.
f. Mark the line of cut clearly.
g. Attach the battery pack to the reciprocating
saw.
h. Hold the tool as shown in the Fig. 9, resting
the edge of the shoe on the workpiece.
i. With the blade just above the workpiece,
depress the lock-off button to the unlock
position and trigger the switch to start the tool;
allow it to come to the desired speed. Then,
using the edge of the shoe as a pivot, lower
the blade into the workpiece.
j. As the blade starts cutting, raise the handle of
the tool slowly, until the shoe rests firmly on
the workpiece
k. After the blade has penetrated through the
Always wear safety goggles when cleaning tools with compressed air.
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields during
power tool operation or when blowing dust. If operation is dusty, also
Do not allow familiarity with the saw to make you careless. One
careless fraction of a second is enough to inflict serious injury.
Do not plunge cut into
metal surfaces.
