then position the straightedge
parallel and at
the same distance as between
the blade and
the side edge of the foot or first mark the side
edge of the foot and then clamp the
straightedge
on the mark and parallel to the
cut line Fig. 12).
On models with the scroll feature, it is advised
to lock scroller knob.
As you cut, keep the saw foot edge flush
against the straightedge
and fiat on the
workpiece
(Fig. 12).
PLUNGE
CUTTING
Plunge cutting is useful and time-saving
in
making rough openings
in softer materials.
It
is not necessary to drill a hole for an inside or
pocket cut. Draw lines for the opening, hold
the saw firmly, tilt it forward so that the toe of
the saw foot rests on the work, but with the
blade well clear of the work. Start the motor,
and then very gradually
lower the blade.
When it touches, continue
pressing down on
the toe of the saw foot slowly pivoting the saw
like a hinge until the blade cuts through and
the foot rests flat on the work. Then saw
ahead on the line of cut line. We do not
recommend
plunge cutting with a scroll blade
(Fig. 13).
To make sharp corners,
cut up to the corner,
then back up slightly before rounding
the
corner. After the opening is complete,
go back
to each corner and cut it from the opposite
direction to square it off. Do not try to plunge
cut into hard materials
such as steel.
J
BEVEL OR ANGLE CUTTING
To prevent damage
to the
tool when bevel or angle
cutting, the scroll mechanism
must be locked
in place with the cutting edge of the blade
facing the front of the tool.
Disconnect
the cord from the power source.
The foot can be adjusted to cut any angle
lrom 0 ° to 45," and is equipped with quick
reference
detent stops at 0 °, 15 °, 30 °, and 45 °.
TO ADJUST:
Lift foot adjustment
lever in the
bottom of foot as shown, move foot slightly
backward
to disengage
the locking tab
(Fig. 14).
Position foot to desired angle, then push
forward to engage locking tab and lower
adjustment
lever to maintain
adjustment.
After
adjusting foot make a sample cut to check the
angle (Fig. 14).

Note: If the foot becomes
