CAUTION:
To make sawing easier and safer, be sure to move the tool forward in a
straight line gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result in overheating the motor and
dangerous KICKBACK, possibly causing severe personal injury.
It's important to understand the correct technique for operating your saw and to learn what the correct and
incorrect ways for handling your saw. equally important to working safely and realizing accurate cuts is correct
preparation of the workpiece and work area prior to making the first cut with the saw.
• Hold the tool firmly.
• Avoid placing your hand on the workpiece while making a cut.
• Place the workpiece with the "good" side down.
• Set-up and support the workpiece so the cut is always on your right so the larger left side of the saw's base
will be on the part that DOeS NOT fall off when the cut is made.
• Securely clamp the workpiece so it will not move during the cut.
• Place a clamp near the cut to further support the workpiece.
• Draw a guideline along the desired path of cut before starting your saw or the cut.
• Move and keep the cord away from the cutting area. Position the cord to prevent it from hanging up on the
workpiece and you from standing or tripping on the cord while cutting.
DANGEr!:
If, while operating the saw, the cord hangs up on the workpiece or
other object during a cut, release the trigger switch immediately. Unplug the saw and
reposition the cord to prevent it from hanging up again.
CROSS-CUTTING AND RIP CUTTING
When cutting material across the width you are cross cutting. Cutting material along it's length is "ripping" or a
rip cut. Both types of cuts are performed in the same manner with the exception of the methods used to support
and secure the workpiece for cutting. After you have secured the workpiece in position with clamps or similar
devices, prepared the work area, position the cord so it won't be cut or become hung up, performed the saw set
up adjustments, make the necessary measurements, drawn a straight guideline, and put on your eye protection
and gloves, you can begin the cutting operation.
• Hold the tool firmly.
• Set the front portion of the saw's base on the workpiece to be cut without the blade making any contact.
Align the line-of-cut indicator notch on the right side of the base with your guideline.
• Turn the saw on by depressing and hold the lock off button. While holding the lock off button inward, pull the
trigger switch and wait until the blade reaches full speed.
• ease the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it flat and advancing smoothly while following your
guideline, until sawing is completed.
• Release the trigger switch. Wait for the blade to completely stop. Check that the lower guard has returned to
position surrounding the blade. Now you can safely remove the saw from the workpiece and set it down out
of the way.
• To achieve clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and 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. Instead,
release the trigger switch, wait for the blade to stop, and then remove the tool. Realign saw on a new cut
guideline and start the cut again.
• Avoid positioning yourself so that you're in the path of debris chips and wood dust being ejected from the
saw.
WArNING:
Never tie the lower blade guard in a raised position. Leaving the
blade exposed could lead to serious injury.
