Trigger Switch and Lock-off
Button (Fig . 8)
To turn the tool “ON”, press and hold the lock-
off button with your thumb, then squeeze the
trigger switch with your finger. Release the
lock-off button and continue to squeeze the
trigger for continued operation.
To turn the tool “OFF”, release the trigger
switch, which is spring loaded and will return
to the off position automatically.
Your saw should be running at full speed
BEFORE starting the cut, and turned off only
AFTER completing the cut. To increase switch
life, do not turn switch on and off while cutting.
LED Light (Fig . 9)
Your tool is equipped with an LED light,
located behind the upper guard. This provides
additional light on the saw blade and the
surface of the workpiece for operation in lower
light areas.
The LED light will automatically turn on
when the tool starts running. It will turn off
approximately 10 seconds after the trigger
switch is released.
NOTE:
When the tool and/or battery pack
become overloaded or too hot, the internal
sensors will automatically turn the tool off and
the LED light will rapidly flash. Rest the tool
for a while or place the tool and battery packs
separately under air flow for cooling.
The LED light will flash more slowly to indicate that the battery pack charge level is low.
Recharge the battery pack.
