OPERATION

It is important to keep at least two teeth in the cut. Select
the proper cutting position for your workpiece by referring
to the figure.
004747
Hold the tool by both hands as shown in the figure with
the stopper plate contacting the workpiece and the blade
clear of the workpiece.
006195
Turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed.
Gently lower the blade into the cut. The weight of the tool
or slightly pressing the tool will supply adequate pressure
for the cutting. Do not force the tool.
As you reach the end of a cut, release pressure and,
without actually raising the tool, lift it slightly so that it will
not fall against the workpiece.
CAUTION:
Applying excessive pressure to the tool or twisting of the
•
blade may cause bevel cutting or damage to the blade.
When not using the tool for a long period of time,
•
remove the blade from the tool.
When cutting metals, use Makita cutting wax as a cutting
lubricant. To apply the cutting wax to the blade teeth,
start the tool and cut in to the cutting wax as shown in the
figure after removing a cap of the cutting wax.
