Hints for optimum use
Sawing laminates
When cutting laminates splintering may occur
which can damage the presentation surface. The
most common saw blades cut on the upward
stroke, therefore if the shoe plate is sitting on the
presentation surface either use a saw blade that
cuts on the downward stroke or:
• Use a fi ne-tooth saw blade.
• Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
• Clamp a piece of scrap wood or hardboard
to both sides of the workpiece to minimise
splintering, and saw through this sandwich.
Sawing metal
• Be aware that sawing metal takes much more
time than sawing wood.
• Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal.
• When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece
of scrap wood to the back surface of the
workpiece and cut through this sandwich.
• Spread a fi lm of oil along the intended line of
cut.
Maintenance
Your Black & Decker tool has been designed to
operate over a long period of time with a minimum
of maintenance.
Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon
proper care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance
or cleaning, make sure that the tool is switched
off and unplugged and that the saw blade has
stopped.
• Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool
and charger using a soft brush or dry cloth.
• Regularly clean the motor housing using
a damp cloth. Do not use any abrasive or
solvent-based cleaner. Never let any liquid get
inside the tool and never immerse any part of
the tool into liquid
