OPERATION
INSTALLING ACCESSORIES
See Figures 4 - 6, page 10.
Remove the battery pack.
Lift the blade release lever to the raised position.
Continue to lift the blade release lever to the unlocked
position, releasing the locking clamp.
NOTE:
It is normal to feel additional resistance when
moving the blade release lever to the unlocked position.
Slide the locking clamp and open it to the unlocked po-
sition as shown.
Place the accessory on the multi tool head so that the
openings on the accesory’s mounting base fit onto the
raised parts of the head.
Close the locking clamp and slide it back to its locked
position.
Lower the blade release lever to lock the accessory onto
the base. Be sure it is in the locked position before use.
NOTE:
If the locking clamp is not centered on the blade
base before attempting to lock the blade release lever, the
locking clamp will return to its unlocked position. Make
sure the locking clamp is in its locked position before
using the multi tool.
WARNING:
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry when operating
this tool. They could get caught in moving parts causing
serious injury. Keep head away from tool and work area.
Hair could be drawn into tool causing serious injury.
WARNING:
Unsecured work could be thrown towards the operator,
causing injury.
WARNING:
Keep hands away from blades. Do not reach beneath
work or around or over the blade while blade is moving.
Do not attempt to remove cut material when blade is
moving.
CUTTING
See Figure 7, page 10.
Mark the line of cut clearly.
Hold the tool firmly in front of and clearly away from you.
Make sure blade is clear of any foreign material.
Slide the on/off switch to the ON
( I )
position to start the
cutting action. Allow the blade to come to full speed, then
move the blade into the work.
To cut, keep the teeth of the blade in the workpiece sur-
face and move the back of the tool slowly in a constant
sideways motion.
NOTE:
If the line and writing on the blade looks blurry
when in use, you are using the correct amount of pressure.
If they become clear, you are using too much force.
NOTICE:
Do not force. Use only enough pressure to keep the saw
cutting. Let the blade and saw do the work. Use of ex-
cessive pressure will cause strong vibrations to the tool,
which may result in broken blades and cause premature
wear to the tool’s motor.
SANDPAPER SELECTION
Selecting the correct size grit and type sandpaper is an
extremely important step in achieving a high quality sanded
finish. Aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, and other synthetic
abrasives are best for power sanding. Natural abrasives,
such as flint and garnet are too soft for economical use in
power sanding.
In general, coarse grit will remove the most material and finer
grit will produce the best finish in all sanding operations. The
condition of the surface to be sanded will determine which
grit will do the job. If the surface is rough, start with a coarse
grit and sand until the surface is uniform. Medium grit may
then be used to remove scratches left by the coarser grit and
finer grit used for finishing of the surface. Always continue
sanding with each grit until surface is uniform.
