the trigger switch, which is spring loaded and
will return to the "OFF" position automatically
(Fig. 4).

Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
dial. The blade stroke rate may be adjusted
during cutting operation by presetting the dial
on or between any one of the six numbers (Fig.

Higher speed settings are generally used for
fast cutting or when softer cutting materials
such as wood, composite materials, and plastics. Slower speed settings are generally used
when precision is required or when cutting harder materials. Materials typically cut using slow-
er speeds include sheet metal, conduit, and pipe.
