Whenever possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly against
the material being cut. This will prevent the saw from jumping or
vibrating and minimize blade breakage.
WARNING: Always wear eye protection while operating this power tool.
CUTTING
WARNING: Cut hazard. Exercise extra caution when cutting towards operator.
Always hold saw firmly with both hands while cutting.
• Before cutting any type of material, be sure it is firmly anchored or clamped to
prevent slipping. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable
and may lead to loss of control.
• Place blade lightly against work to be cut, depress the trigger switch and allow it to
obtain maximum speed before applying pressure.
• Whenever possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly against the material being cut.
This will prevent the saw from jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage.
Any cut which puts pressure on the blade, such as angle or scroll cuts, increases
potential for vibration, kickback and blade breakage.
• A light (5 in figure A) is built-in to the front of the saw. The light will automatically
come on each time the on/off switch is depressed.
WARNING: Shock hazard. Use extra caution when cutting overhead and pay
particular attention to overhead wires which may be hidden from view.
WARNING: Use extra caution when cutting overhead and anticipate the path of
falling branches and debris ahead of time.
