When the blade loses its cutting efficiency in one place
along its cutting edge, reposition the shoe to utilize a
sharp, unused portion of its cutting edge. This will help
to lengthen the life of the blade. To reposition the shoe,
push the shoe button in the "A" direction with a click
and reposition as shown in the figure which allows you
to make five-way adjustment. To secure the shoe, push
the shoe button in the "B" direction with a click.
Selecting the cutting action
► 1 . Lever 2. Stopper
This tool can be operated with an orbital or a straight line cut-
ting action. The orbital cutting action thrusts the blade forward
on the cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed.
To change the cutting action, press the stopper and turn the lever to
the desired cutting action position. Then, release the stopper to lock
A
the lever. Refer to the table to select the appropriate cutting action.
NOTE:
2
• Orbital action means that the saw blade moves
up and down, and back and forth at the same
time. This increases the efficiency of cutting.
