Never run your tool without a saw blade.
For optimal results, move the tool
smoothly and constantly over the
workpiece. Do not exert lateral pressure
on the saw blade.
Keep the shoe flat on the workpiece
and lead the cord away in line with the
tool. When sawing curves, circles or
other round shapes, push the tool
gently forward.
Wait until the tool has come to a standstill
before removing the saw blade from the
workpiece. After sawing the blade may
be very hot. Do not touch.
