Workpiece and Work Area Set Up
1. Workpiece selection:
a. Workpiece must be free of foreign
objects and loose knots.
b. Do not use to cut logs, tree limbs,
or uneven lumber.
c. Wet lumber, green (unseasoned) lumber,
and pressure treated lumber all have an
increased potential for kickback and should
only be cut with a blade designed for cutting
that lumber. Wear a NIOSH-approved
respirator and have appropriate ventilation
whenever cutting pressure treated lumber.
2. Designate a work area that is clean and well lit.
The work area must not allow access by children
or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
3. Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps
(not included) to prevent movement while working.
4. There must not be objects, such as utility lines,
nearby that will present a hazard while working.
This is especially critical for plunge cuts.
General Operating instructions
1. Make sure that the Trigger is locked, then attach
the fullly charged Battery Pack into the Saw
making sure it clicks into place securely.
2.
Make sure that all guards are in place
and in proper working order and that all
adjustment knobs are tight before operation.
3. Hold the Saw with one hand on the Main Handle
and the other hand on the Auxiliary Handle.
4. Align Saw on cut line with the larger part of
the workpiece to the left of the Saw Blade.
5. Push in and hold Trigger Lock on
either side, then press Trigger.
6. Allow the Blade to come up to full speed
before contacting the workpiece.
note:
When cutting across the grain,
wood fibers can lift and tear. Move the
Saw slowly to minimize any tearing.
7. After completing the cut, release the Trigger. Make
sure that the Lower Guard closes immediately.
cAUtiOn!
After use, remove Battery pack and
clean inside Upper Guard. Sawdust accumulation
interferes with Lower Guard operation.
8. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and
remove its Battery Pack after use. Clean, then
store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
