Clamp and support the workpiece securely
before making your cut.
Place the edge guide firmly against the edge
of the workpiece, or against a wall. Doing this
will help give you a true cut without pinching the
blade.
BE SURE that the guiding edge of the workpiece,
or the wall, is straight so you can produce a
straight cut.
ALWAYS LET THE BLADE REACH FULL SPEED, then carefully guide
the saw into the workpiece. DO NOT bind the blade in the cut. Push the
saw forward at a speed where the blade is not laboring.
PLUNGE
OR POCKET CUTTING
Cutting into a solid base surface. One of the major benefits of this saw is its
ability to make plunge cuts directly into the middle, or interior of a workpiece,
or plunge cut directly into a solid base surface such as sub-flooring, siding,
paneling and hardwood or laminate flooring that is mounted on top of sub-
flooring.
_WARNING:
ALWAYS clamp and support workpiece securely.
ALWAYS make sure the workpiece is securely positioned so it will
not move.
1. Unplug the saw.
2. Mark the cut line on the surface to be cut.
3. Set the depth-of-cut to the thickness of the material to be cut, (sub/floor,
siding, laminate flooring, etc.)
4. Align (position) the saw base on the workpiece to your mark, using the
Length-of-Cut guide (so that your starting point lines up with the mark
corresponding to the Depth-of-Cut setting.
5. Plug in the saw.
6. Hold the saw firmly with both hands.
7. Activate the trigger safety release and paddle switches and turn the saw "On".
8. Let the blade reach full speed.
9. Manually release the blade guard release lever while holding the finger lift
bracket on the rear of the base.
10. A. SLOWLY lower the blade into the workpiece.
B. Carefully guide the saw through the line of cut until the forward depth
marking on the length of cut guide located on the saw's base aligns
with the end of cut marking on your workpiece. (DO NOT bind the
blade in the cut; push the saw blade forward at a rate where the blade
is not laboring).
