Pocket/Plunge Cuts
The reciprocating saw can be used to
make plunge cuts into softer material,
(for example, wood or light building
materials for walls), without a starting
hole (Fig. 7).
1. Mark the line to be cut clearly on the
work.
2. Set the tool with one edge of the
footplate firmly against the material.
3. Place the tip of the blade (not
running) on the line to be cut.
4. Tilt the saw so that the blade clears
the work.
5. Squeeze the trigger switch and
carefully engage the moving saw
blade into the material.
6. After the blade penetrates through
the work, continue sawing along the
marked outline.
NOTES:
To make plunge cutting easier, use a
heavy gauge blade, install the blade with
the teeth facing upward, and hold the
saw upside down as shown (Fig. 8).
Do not plunge cut in metal surfaces.
In thick materials and in harder
materials, such as metal, plunge cutting
should not be attempted. Such
materials can be cut with the recip saw
only by starting the cut from the edge of
the material or from a hole drilled all the
way through the material that is large
enough to fit the saw blade.
