CAUTION: 

• 

The inner flange has a 20 mm diameter on one side 
and a 19 mm diameter on the other. The side with 
19 mm diameter is marked by "19". Use the correct 
side for the hole diameter of the blade you intend to 
use.  Mounting  the  blade  on  the  wrong  side  can 
result in the dangerous vibration.

OPERATION 

 

CAUTION: 

• 

Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line 
gently.  Forcing  or  twisting  the  tool  will  result  in 
overheating  the  motor  and  dangerous  kickback, 
possibly causing severe injury. 

Hold the tool firmly. Set the base plate on the workpiece 
to be cut without the blade making any contact. Then turn 
the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed. Now 
simply move the tool forward over the workpiece surface, 
keeping  it  flat  and  advancing  slowly  until  the  sawing  is 
completed.  To  get  clear  cuts,  keep  your  sawing  line 
straight and your speed of advancing uniform.

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 position with 
the screw on the front of the base. It also makes repeated 
cuts of uniform width possible.
