WARNING:
When changing a blade immediately after operation, allow the blade
to cool before removing to avoid possible burning.
PIVOT SHOE
The pivot shoe adjusts backwards and forwards to allow the entire length of the blade,
exposing different areas of teeth on the blade, or for special applications requiring a low
clearance.
WARNING: To avoid injury and damage, do not operate the saw without the pivot
shoe. The spindle may strike against the workpiece and damage the reciprocating
mechanism.
ON/OFF SWITCH AND VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL (FIG. 5)
Your reciprocating saw is equipped with
a trigger switch (1) to turn the saw on
and off, and to control the speed.
1. To start the saw, squeeze the trigger
switch (1).
2. To stop the saw, release the trigger
switch and allow it to return to the
OFF position.
3. To vary the speed, simply increase
or decrease the pressure on the
trigger switch. The tighter the trigger
switch is squeezed, the higher the
speed.
GENERAL CUTTING
WARNING: Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch is
actuated properly and returns to the off position when released.
WARNING: Hold the tool only by the plastic handle and the insulated grip area,
which help prevent electrical shock. When sawing into walls or floors you may encounter
electrical wiring. Sawing into a “live” wire will cause electric shock.
1. Make sure the workpiece is firmly anchored. Clamp the workpiece to prevent slipping
or moving while cutting.
