resulting in a serious injury.
• Advance the tool very slowly when cutting
curves or scrolling. Forcing the tool may cause a
slanted cutting surface and blade breakage.

dle when performing the tool. If necessary, the front
part of the tool may be supported by the other hand.
Turn the tool on without the blade making any contact
and wait until the blade attains full speed.
