Fig. 8
3. Plug the tool cord into the power
source.
NOTE: The green "power on" light (1)
on the right hand side of the tool will
illuminate when power is "live" (see
Fig. 9).
4. Place leading edge of the blade guard
(2) on the workpiece to be cut (see
Fig. 10).
5. Grasp the tool with two hands. Place
your right hand on the body of the tool
(3) being careful not to cover the motor
vents (4). Place your left hand on the
forward part of the tool (5) so your
thumb can operate the blade guard
release button (6).
6. Line up front cut line indicator (7) with
the cutting line marked on the
workpiece (8).
NOTE: Do not place the blade guard
too far forward on the workpiece. This
is important to avoid the blade
touching the workpiece when the blade
guard is raised to expose the blade as
outlined in instruction # 8.
