Reference Guide" enclosed for details.
This multi-purpose oscillating tool is intended for cutting and sanding wood, plastic, plaster and non-ferrous metals.
It is especially suitable for cutting in tight spaces and for flush cutting
CUTTING (FIG 4,5,6)
use a flush cutting saw blade (or "e-cut blade") for making precise
cuts in tight areas, close to edges, plunge or flush to a surface.
It is important not to force the tool during the flush cutting. If you
are experiencing a strong vibration during cut, it indicates too much
hand pressure is on the tool. Back off on the pressure and let the
speed of the tool do the work. See FiG 4, 5 for examples of using the
flush cutting saw blade.
