LINE GUIDE
For a 0° cut, use right side of notch in the foot.
For 45° bevel cuts, use the left side (Fig. 7).
The cutting guide notch will give an
approximate line of cut. Make sample cuts in
scrap lumber to verify actual line of cut. This
will be helpful because of the number of
different blade types and thicknesses
available. To ensure minimum splintering on
the good side of the material to be cut, face
the good side down.
WRENCH USAGE
1. Loosening/tightening blade bolt (1/2"

hold it with both hands.
The torque from the motor can cause the tool
to twist.
To turn tool "ON", squeeze the trigger switch.
To turn the tool "OFF", release the trigger
switch, which is spring loaded and will return
to the off position automatically.
Your saw should be running at full speed
BEFORE starting the cut, and turned off only
AFTER completing the cut. To increase switch
life, do not turn switch on and off while cutting.
GENERAL CUTS
Always hold the saw handle with one hand
and the auxiliary handle or housing with the

released, be aware of the necessary time it
takes for the blade to come to a complete
stop during coast down. Do not allow the
saw to brush against your leg or side,
since the lower guard is retractable, it
could catch on your clothing and expose
the blade. Be aware of the necessary blade
exposures that exist in both the upper and
lower guard areas.
