When servicing use only identical replacement parts.

Several models, however, are designed for A.C. -

SELECTING THE BLADE For best performance, longer blade life, and smoother cut, select the proper blade for the job. A wide assortment of Porter-Cable blades is listed in the back of this manual. When cutting metal always select a blade which will allow at least three teeth to be engaged in the thickness of material. - Page 8 work the blade up and down while rotating the clamp (in a counter- clockwise direction). If the blade breaks leaving nothing to grasp (to pull it from the clamp), it may be necessary to use another blade as a tool to aid in removing the broken piece (see Fig.

Page 10: Pivoting Guide Shoe
DUAL BLADE MOTION Model 737 has dual blade motion: you have a choice of straight reciprocating motion, as shown in Fig. 10, or orbital motion as shown in Fig. 11. Straight reciprocating motion should be used for all metal cutting operations, and for wood cutting applications where finish is more important than speed. -
Page 11: Sawing Wood
OPERATIONS BEFORE YOU START TO WORK Select the blade best suited for the material to be cut (see ACCESSORIES). For greatest economy, use the shortest blade suitable for the thickness of the material to be cut. Be sure the material to be cut is rigid. Small work pieces should be securely clamped in a bench vise or with clamps to the work table. -
