Plunge cutting
Plunge cut into plywood and thin board
panels. Do not attempt to plunge cut into
thick, hard wood or metal panels.
1. Clearly mark the line of cut.
2. From a convenient starting point within the
cutting area, place the tip of the Blade over that
point with the Saw parallel to the line of cut.
3. Place the edge of the Pivot Shoe on the
workpiece with the Blade NOT touching the
workpiece. Squeeze the Trigger to start the
tool operating. Never start a plunge cut with
the Blade tip touching the workpiece. This
will cause an immediate kickback, that can
damage the workpiece, blade or cause injury.
4. Wait for the Saw to reach full speed, then slowly
rotate the tool on the Pivot Shoe as the Blade
contacts the workpiece. Hold the tool firmly.
5. Continue to slowly rotate the tool until the
Blade has penetrated through the workpiece.
Press the Pivot Shoe firmly against the
workpiece and continue to make the cut.

before removing it from the cut.
7. To prevent accidents, turn off the tool and
disconnect its power supply after use. Clean, then
store the tool indoors out of children’s reach.
