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.

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.
