OPERATION:
CUTTING PROCEDURES:
CAUTION: RECHECK THAT THE SAW BLADE IS
SECURELY CLAMPED. CONFIRM THAT
THE CLAMP LEVER FOR ADJUSTING
THE SLOT DEPTH, THE WING-BOLT
FOR ADJUSTING THE ANGLE OF
INCLINATION.
GRIP THE SAW AS SHOWN IN FIG. 2
AND BE SURE THE CORD IS FREE TO
MOVE THROUGH THE ENTIRE CUT
WITHOUT JAMMING OR GETTING IN
THE PATH OF THE SAW BLADE.
1. Place the saw body (base) on the lumber, and as in Fig.
8 align the intended line of cut with the saw blade, using
the notch at the front of the base. This relationship of
base to lumber should remain unchanged regardless of
the inclination of the base.
2. The switch should be turned to the ON position before
the saw blade comes into contact with the lumber. The
switch is turned ON when the trigger is pulled by one's
finger, and is turned OFF when the trigger is released.
3. Moving the saw straight at a constant speed will produce
optimum cutting.
(Fig. 8)
CAUTIONS: BEFORE STARTING TO SAW, ENSURE THAT THE SAW
BLADE HAS REACHED FULL SPEED REVOLUTION.
SHOULD THE SAW BLADE STOP OR MAKE AN
ABNORMAL NOISE DURING OPERATION, TURN OFF
THE SWITCH IMMEDIATELY.
DURING OPERATION, DO NOT COVER THE SLOTS IN
THE TAIL TO PREVENT MOTOR BURN.
ALWAYS TAKE CARE IN PREVENTING THE POWER
CORD FROM COMING NEAR THE REVOLVING SAW
BLADE.
WHEN FINISHED WITH A JOB, PULL OUT THE PLUG
FROM THE POWER RECEPTACLE.
