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.
- Never force the saw but maintain a light and continuous pressure when completing the cut.
- Switch off the tool only after the tool is completely away from the workpiece.
- If the cutting is interrupted, resume the cut by allowing the blade to reach full speed and then
reentering the cut slowly.
- When cutting across the grain, the fibers of the wood will have a tendency to lift and tear, move the
saw slowly to minimize this effect.

NOTE
For best cutting results, always ensure that the saw blade protrudes no more than 1/8" below the
bottom surface of the workpiece.
NOTE
There are two notches on the front edge of the shoe as an aid for alignment.When
making a 45 ⁰ bevel cut, just align the left notch marked with 45 ⁰ with the cutting line
on the workpiece. For a straight 90 ⁰ cut, align the right notch marked with 00 with
the cutting line on the workpiece. For precise cutting, always make a trial cut before
carrying out operation.
