Assembly
Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating name plate.
To avoid accidental start, check to make sure lock-on button is not engaged prior to plugging in tool and you finger is not
touching the on/off switch trigger.
Install the blade ( Fig. 2)
1.
Unplug the power cord first.
2.
Rotate the Quick-release blade clamp (3) anticlockwise with hand
3.
At the same time push blade (1) to the deepest position, then release the quick-release blade clamp, make sure it is
securely fastened.
WARNING! Before plugging in power cord, always pull on the blade to make sure it is securely locked in the clamp. Failure
to do so may result in serious injury.
OPERATION
Switch on/off (Fig. 3)
1.
Connect the plug to the power mains, the power indicator light (5) is illumed until the tool disconnect from the
power mains.
2.
Turn on or turn off the tool by squeezing or releasing the switch trigger (6).
3.
For continuous operation just press the lock-on button (7) on the left side of the handle.
To change position of the pivot shoe assembly (Fig. 4)
1.
Unplug your saw. WARNING: Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing serious injury.
2.
Loosen the both cap screws in the gear frame with hex. Key
3.
Reposition pivot shoe assembly in or out.
4.
Retighten both cap screws securely. Do not over tighten cap screws.
5.
Remove Hex. Key.
WARNING: Cutting into electrical wiring in walls can cause blade, blade clamp, and saw bar assembly to become
electrically live. Do not touch metal parts when cutting into a wall; grasp only the insulated gripping surfaces provided by
the tool. Make sure hidden electrical wiring, water pipes, and mechanical hazards are not in the blade path when cutting
into a wall.
General cutting
Clamp your work piece if it is portable, rest the front shoe of the saw on your work piece (be sure the blade is not
contacting the work piece) and start the saw, exerting enough pressure in the direction of the cut to keep the shoe
pressed firmly against the work piece at all times, Do not force the cut or stall the saw. Don’t bend or twist the blade let
the tool and the blade do the work.
In general, coarser blades are for wood, plastics , and composites , and finer blades are for cutting metal, chattering or
vibration may indicate you need fine blade or higher speed, if the blade overheats or clogs, it may indicate you need a
coarser blade when they become dull, Dull blades will produce poor results and may overheat the saw.
Plunge cutting
Clearly mark the line of cut, from a convenient starting point within the cut out area, place the tip of the blade over that
point with saw parallel to the line of cut, slowing lower the saw until the button edge of the shoe rests on the work piece
and the blade not touching the work piece, start the saw and allow it to attain full speed. With the saw resting on the
shoe, slowly tilt the saw forward to lower the blade onto the cut line. Continue this motion until the saw blade is
perpendicular to the work piece.
Metal cutting
Blades specifically designated for cutting metals must be used for this purpose. You may use light oil as a coolant when
cutting metal, this will prevent overheating of the blade, help the blade cut faster, and promote longer blade life.
Cleaning and maintenance
The machine does not require any special maintenance.
Regularly clean the ventilation slots.
CAUTION: Do not use cleaning agents to clean the plastic parts of the tool. A mild detergent on a damp cloth is
recommended. Water must never come into contact with the tool.
Replacement of the Carbon Brushes (Fig. 5)
For safety reasons, the machine automatically switches off if the carbon brushes are so worn out that they no longer have
contact with the motor. In that case, the carbon brushes must be replaced by a pair similar carbon brush available
