GENERAL CUTTING

 

 
1.  Make any adjustments to the saw 

before installing the battery. 
Adjustments include cutting depth, 
cutting angle and rip guide (if 
installed). 
 

2.  Clearly mark the workpiece to locate 

the position of the cut. 
 

3.  Hold a smaller workpiece with a vise. 

Clamp a larger workpiece to a 
workbench or table. 

 
        

DANGER:

 

Any workpiece that is 

not adequately clamped in place may 
come loose and cause serious injury. 
Never hold the workpiece in your hand.

 

 
4.  Make sure there are no nails, screws, 

clamps or foreign materials in the path 
of the saw blade. 
 

5.  With both hands firmly gripping the 

saw, and with the blade NOT in 
contact with the surface to be cut, 
start the saw by pressing the lock-off 
button and then the trigger switch. 

 
6.  Once the saw has reached full speed, 

place the front edge of the sole plate 
on the workpiece and gradually bring 
the moving blade into contact with the 
workpiece at the appropriate location.
