INSTALLING THE BLADE (FIG 2)
Check that the blade you are inserting matches the material
you are cutting. Start with a sharp blade. Twist the quick
release blade clamp as far as it will go in the direction of the
engraved arrow (counterclockwise if facing the saw). Slip the
new blade into blade clamp as far as it will go. Release the
blade clamp. The new blade should now be securely fastened.
DEPTH OF CUT ADJUSTMENT (FIG 3)
The Pivot Shoe can be adjusted to change the depth of cut of
your reciprocating saw. To adjust the depth of cut, loosen the
Pivot Shoe Locking Screws (located on the bottom of the Saw
Boot) by inserting the provided Allen wrench and rotating
counter-clockwise. Set your depth of cut (Note: ideal depth of
cut is 1” deeper than material to be cut), then tighten the Pivot
Shoe Locking Nut securely.
OPERATION
STARTING AND STOPPING THE SAW
WARNING:
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the tool is
switched off. Accidently starting the saw could cause personal injury.
To turn the tool on
, depress the ON/OFF switch (6-FIG 1). The tool can be locked on by depressing
the Lock-On Button (7-FIG 1) and the ON/OFF switch at the same time, then releasing pressure on
the ON/OFF switch.
CAUTION:
The Lock-on feature is to relieve fatigue on the trigger finger only. Grip tool
firmly at all times while it is running, and keep both hands away from cutting area. To release the

To turn the tool off,
depress the ON/OFF switch and release it.
POWER INDICATOR:
When the tool is connected to a power source, the Power Indicator will light to remind the operator
that the tool is plugged into a power source
APPLICATION
The reciprocating saw blade is doing most of its cutting as it travels towards the operator. Depending
on the type of material and cutting speed, this can cause splintering on the surface of the workpiece
that is facing the operator. Therefore, if possible, position yourself or the workpiece so that the
desired “good” side of the workpiece is facing away from the operator.
