Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight
line gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result
in overheating the motor and dangerous
kickback, possibly causing severe
injury.
WARNING
Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool. If
both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by the
blade. Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the blade making any contact. Then turn the tool on and
wait until the blade attains full speed. Now simply move
the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it
flat and advancing smoothly until the sawing is
completed.

To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and your speed of advance uniform. If the cut
fails to properly follow your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn or force the tool back to the
cut line. Doing so may bind the blade and lead to dangerous kickback and possible serious injury.
Release switch, wait for blade to stop and then withdraw tool. Realign tool on new cut line, and
start cut again. Attempt to avoid positioning which exposes operator to chips and wood dust being
ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid injury.
RIP FENCE (GUIDE RULE)
The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly against
the side of the workpiece and secure it in position with
the screw on the front of the base. It also makes
repeated cuts of uniform width possible.

After replacing brushes, plug in the tool and break in brushes by running tool with no load for
about 10 minutes. Then check the tool while running and electric brake operation when releasing
the switch trigger.
