Hex wrench storage
004035
When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the
figure to keep it from being lost.

OPERATION

CAUTION:
Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line
gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result in
overheating the motor and dangerous kickback,
possibly causing severe injury.
Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece
to be cut without the blade making any contact. Then
turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed.
Now simply move the tool forward over the workpiece
surface, keeping it flat and advancing slowly until the
sawing is completed. To get clear cuts, keep your
sawing line straight and your speed of advancing
uniform.

the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with

MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
