OPERATION
Section cutting (ordinary sawing)
CAUTION:
• 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 injury.
• Never approach any part of your body under the
tool base when section cutting, especially at
starting. Doing so may cause serious personal
injuries. The blade is exposed under the tool base.
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 front of base on the workpiece to be cut
without the blade making any contact. Then push in the
lock-off button and turn the tool on and wait until the
blade attains full speed. Now press down the saw head
slowly to the preset depth of cut and 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 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.

Place the tool on the rear end of guide rail. Turn two
adjusting screws on the tool base so that the tool slides
smoothly without a clatter. Hold the tool firmly. The tool is
provided with both a front grip and rear handle. Use both
to best grasp the tool. Turn on the tool, press down the
tool to the preset depth of cut and cut the splinterguard
along the full length with a stroke. The edge of the
splinterguard corresponds to the cutting edge.
