OPERATION
WARNING! To prevent serious injury, make sure all the instructions have been read and understood before
operating this tool. Check that the power switch works properly before plugging the tool into the power supply.
WARNING! Wear safety goggles at all times that comply with ANSI Z87.1. Use ear protection such as plugs
or muffs during extended periods of operation. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Wear a face mask or
dust mask to fight the dust.
TURNING THE TOOL ON/OFF
• To turn ON the tool, pull the power trigger (Fig. 13 - 1).
• To lock the tool ON, pull the trigger (Fig. 13 - 1) and press in the lock-on but-
ton (Fig. 13 - 2). Release the power trigger and the lock-on button will remain
depressed to keep the tool running.
• To turn OFF the tool, release the power trigger. If the tool is locked ON, pull
the trigger and then release the trigger and allow the lock-on button to pop
out.
SAWING OPERATION
1. Prepare the work space and position power cords away from the cutting area.
2. Install the suitable blade and set up your saw according to the instructions in “Assembly and Adjustments” on
pages 10 to 12. Connect the tool to a dust extraction system if the air blow switch has been set to the dust extrac-
tion mode.
3. Check the workpiece and make sure to remove any nails or foreign objects. Draw a line on your workpiece to
indicate the saw path. Secure the work piece in position with clamps or similar devices.
4. Stand to the side of the saw. Avoid positioning yourself so that you’re in the path of chips and wood dust being
ejected from the saw. Hold the tool firmly with both hands for maximum control.
5. Set the front of the base plate onto the workpiece without letting the blade contact the workpiece. Turn on the
laser (see page 7 for laser safety rules) and align the laser with the saw path that was previously drawn.
6. Turn ON the saw by pressing the power trigger. Wait until the blade reaches full speed.
7. Press the base plate firmly against the workpiece to reduce vibrations or breaking the blade. Apply gentle pres-
sure and slowly move the tool along the saw path to cut.
NOTE: To achieve clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight while smoothly advancing forward. Do not force the saw
forward too quickly in order to try and hurry up the process. Let the tool work at its own pace.
8. Once the cut is complete, clear the blade from the workpiece and then release the trigger. Wait for the blade to
come to a complete stop before setting down the tool. Unplug the tool from the power outlet.
