POCKET CUTTING
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 shown in
figure19
.
• 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.
WARNING:
As blade starts cutting
the material, release the retracting lever
immediately.
• Never tie the blade guard in a raised
position.
• 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.
WRENCH STORAGE
The blade wrench can be stored on the
saw shoe as shown in
figure 20
.
RIPPING
Your saw is not equipped with a rip fence.
If installing a rip fence, insure the fence
fits snug in slots.
If you do not have a proper fitting fence,
use a straight edge guide in contact with
the edge of the shoe to improve accuracy
of cut and reduce the possibility of binding
and kickback.
