When not in use, the hex wrench can be conveniently 
stored. 

 

OPERATION 

   

009639 

 

CAUTION: 

• 

Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the main 
handle when using the tool. If necessary, the front 
part of the tool may be supported by the other 
hand. 

• 

Always hold the base flush with the workpiece. 
Failure to do so may cause blade breakage, 
resulting in serious injury. 

• 

Advance the tool very slowly when cutting curves 
or scrolling. Forcing the tool may cause a slanted 
cutting surface and blade breakage. 

Turn the tool on without the blade making any contact 
and wait until the blade attains full speed. Then rest the 
base flat on the workpiece and gently move the tool 
forward along the previously marked cutting line.

CAUTION: 

• 

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and 
unplugged before tilting the base. 

With the base tilted, you can make bevel cuts at any 
angle between 0° and 45° (left or right). 
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex 
wrench and slide the base backwards.

Tilt the base until the desired bevel angle is obtained. 
The edge of the motor housing indicates the bevel angle 
by graduations. Then check the contact between the 
back edge of the blade and the roller. Now tighten the 
bolt to secure the base.
