OPERATION
• Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line
Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool. If
both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by the
blade. Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the blade making any contact. Then turn the tool on and
wait until the blade attains full speed. Now simply move
the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it
flat and advancing smoothly until the sawing is
completed. To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line
straight and your speed of advance uniform. If the cut
fails to properly follow your intended cut line, do not
attempt to turn or force the tool back to the cut line. Doing
so may bind the blade and lead to dangerous kickback
and possible serious injury. Release switch, wait for blade
to stop and then withdraw tool. Realign tool on a new cut
line, and start cut again. Attempt to avoid positioning
which exposes operator to chips and wood dust being
ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid injury.

Rip fence (Guide rule) (Fig. 11)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against
the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with
the screw on the front of the base. It also makes repeated
cuts of uniform width possible.
MAINTENANCE
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the
