  • Page 3 2) Electrical safety a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrig- erators.
  • Page 4 e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.

  • Page 5: Specific Safety Rules

    SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES WARNING Keep hands away from the cutting area and blade. NEVER place your hands behind the saw blade since kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards over your hand. Keep your body positioned to either side of the saw blade. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - Check the lower guard for proper closing before each use.
  • Page 6 KICKBACK Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an uncontrolled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator. - When a blade is pinched or bound tightly by the Nerf closing down, the blade stalls and the motor reaction may drive the unit back toward the operator rapidly.

  • Page 7: Symbols

    Safety instruction for saws - Check lower guard before each use. Do not operate the saw if the lower guard does not move freely and close instantly. Never clamp or tie the lower guard into the open position. If saw is accidentally dropped, lower guard may be bent.

  • Page 9: Electric Connection

    ELECTRIC CONNECTION This tool has a precision-built electric motor. It should be connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and the motor will overheat. If your tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.

    - Make sure that the new saw blade is well centered at the inner flange when mounting the blade. - Make sure the direction of rotation from the blade is the same as the rotation direction of the tool, refer to the direction arrow at the tool and the direction arrow at the saw blade - Reinstall the outer flange, washer and tighten the blade clamp screw.

  • Page 12: Depth Adjustment

    Depth Adjustment - Before any adjustment, ensure the power plug is removed from the socket. - Loosen the depth adjustment screw using the depth locking lever (O). - Hold the base plate flat against the body of the work piece and lift the body of the saw until the blade is at the correct depth.

  • Page 13: Operation

    OPERATION General Cut - Mark a cutting line on the workpiece (U). - Rest the front part of the base plate(L) flat on the workpiece surface with the blade not making any contact with the workpiece. - Switch on the tool and allow it to reach its full speed. - Align the saw blade with the cutting line on the workpiece, gently push the saw forward.

  • Page 14: Maintenance

    Pocket Cut - Disconnect the plug from the power supply before making any adjustments. - Set the depth adjustment based on the thickness of the required cut. - Raise the lower guard by using the lower guide lever. - With the blade barely above the material to be cut, start the saw and allow the blade to attain full speed.
