When you cut angle materials or the like, the lower guard may rest on the
angle.
If so, tilt other rear of the tool to prevent this.
When cutting thin sheet metals such as corrugated metal, always cut them at
a position more than 20 mm (25/32”) away from the edge. If you cut them at a
position closer to the edge, a piece cut off could be sucked into the dust box,
causing a severe injury.
CAUTION:
•
Never use a deformed or cracked blade. Always replace it with a new
one.
•
When the battery charge runs slow, the blade easily becomes stuck, and
the blade tips can break. Always recharge the battery cartridge when the
blade rpm slows down.
•
Do not stack materials when cutting them.
•
Do not cut hardened steel.
•
Do not touch the saw blade, workpiece or cutting chips with your bare
hand immediately after cutting; they may be extremely hot and could
burn your skin.
•
Do not connect the saw to a vacuum cleaner when cutting metals.
Rip fence (Guide rule)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate straight cuts. Simply slide
the rip fence up snugly against the side of the workpiece and secure it in posi-
tion with the screw on the front of the base. It also makes repeated cuts of uni-
form width possible.
