OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
9. Plunge Cutting
Your saw is ideal for plunge cutting directly into a
workpiece, such as walls or floors.
WARNING
• Do not plunge cut into metal surfaces or tile.
Draw a guideline along the desired cutting line
before beginning the cut.
a. Loosen the depth-lock lever (L) so that the
base plate (A) releases and goes to the zero-
depth setting. Leave the depth-lock lever loose
during this cut.
b. Rest the base plate of the tool on the
workpiece and align the guide notch (B) with
the cut line.
c. While holding the tool firmly, make sure that
the wheel does not touch the workpiece.
d. Push forward the lock-off lever (J) and press
the paddle switch (K) to start the saw.
e. Allow the wheel to come to full speed, then
slowly lower the wheel into the workpiece and
make the cut.
f. Release the paddle switch and allow the wheel
to come to a complete stop.
g. Lift the tool from the workpiece.
h. Repeat steps b-g as required to complete the
cuts.
10. Flush Cutting
First, consider the desired height of the flush cut.
For flooring installation, take into account the
thickness of your flooring adhesive, the flooring
itself, and any underlayment or other material that
will add to the thickness of the finished floor.
a. Install the wood flush cut wheel (V) on the
tool as described in "Installing/Removing
Accessories".
b. Adjust the depth of the blade to the desired
depth setting.
c. Turn the tool on its side so that the wheel
guard (C) rests against the flooring.
d. Firmly grip the tool, using the auxiliary handle
(T) if needed. Turn the tool on and allow it to
come to full speed before allowing the blade to enter the workpiece.
e. Complete the cut, release the paddle switch and allow the wheel to come to a complete
stop.
f. Lift the tool from the workpiece.
