z_CAUTION: Never move the saw backwards when pocket cutting. This may cause the unit
to raise up off the work surface which could cause injury.

Pocket cutting is used to cut a hole in a piece of material without cutting from the side.
• Measure and mark work.
• Tilt saw forward and rest front of the shoe on material to be cut. Align so that cut will
begin at the back of the drawn rectangle.
• Using the retracting lever, retract blade guard to an upward position, with the blade just
clearing the material, start motor and gradually lower the saw into the material.
Z_WARNING:
Laceration Hazard. As blade starts cutting the material, release the
retracting lever immediately.
• When the shoe rests flat on the material being cut, complete the cut in forward direction.
• Allow the blade to come to a complete stop before lifting saw from material.
• When starting each new cut, repeat the above steps.
