parts, making adjustments, cleaning, or when not in use. Removing
battery pack will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious
personal injury.
NEVER COVER THE AIR VENTS SINCE THEY MUST ALWAYS
BE OPEN FOR PROPER MOTOR COOLING.
After use, check the tool to make sure that it is in top condition.It
is recommended that you take this tool to a RYOBI Authorized
Service Center for a thorough cleaning and lubrication at least
once a year.
DO NOT MAKE ANY ADJUSTMENTS WHILE THE MOTOR IS
IN MOTION.

CHANGING REMOVABLE OR EXPENDABLE PARTS
(BIT...ETC.), LUBRICATING OR WORKING ON THE UNIT.
For accurate cutting, hold the tool at right angles to the work.

STARTING
In cases of small circle or arc cutting, use a lower cutting speed
than for ordinary straight cutting.
ARC CUTTING
To cut in the center of a board, rest the base of the tool on the
board as shown in fig. 7, so that the blade does not touch it. Then
turn the switch on and slowly lower the moving blade against the
board.
For materials other than wood, a starting hole must be drilled first.
1. Loosen the hex. socket head bolt (8) at the bottom of the base
plate (9) by using the hex. key wrench (6).
2. Align the bottom line of the housing to the angle scale (10) on
the base plate, and then fasten the hex. socket head bolt firmly.
Bevel cutting of 0 - 45° can be achieved easily.

NOTE: Too much pressure may break the blade when cutting
in a circular motion.
