WARNING:
To avoid possible serious injury, keep hands and fingers
from between the gear housing and saw blade clamp, and
keep the guard in place.
WARNING:
Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in broken
blades or damage to the material being cut.
STRAIGHT CUT
See Figures 7 and 8.
Your saw is equipped with a lock for locking the scrolling
knob in the forward facing position. This should be locked
for all straight cuts as shown in figure 8. A straight cut can
be made by clamping a piece of wood or straightedge to
the workpiece and guiding the edge of the saw against it.
Make the cut from one direction only. Don't cut halfway and
complete the cut from the opposite end. You can also use the
supplied edge guide as shown in figure 8. Loosen the thumb
screw and insert the end of the edge guide through the two
slots in the base. Measure the distance to cut and tighten
the thumb screw. Place the edge guide on the outside edge
of the workpiece and cut in a straight path.
