Each day,
before you begin operation, go through
the following checklist:
3.1 Make sure that the1000--FS moves freely on the
balancer.
3.2 Make sure that the dual anti--tie down control
handles (the front and rear handles) are working
correctly.
Depress
each trigger separately and
the tool should not start.
Depress
both triggers
simultaneously (within one second of each oth-
er) and the tool should start.
Release
either or
both triggers and the tool should stop.
If the tool
malfunctions, remove it from service and report
the problem to your supervisor immediately.
Always use two hands when starting and stop-
ping the tool. Continue holding the tool firmly
with two hands until the saw blade comes to a
complete stop.

4.1 Position the 1000--FS.
4.2 Depress both triggers simultaneously to start the
motor and make the cut.
Always use two hands
when starting and stopping the tool.
4.2.1 Make the cut with a firm, steady motion. Do
not exert excessive pressure on the
1000--FS, but rather, guide the saw through
the cut.
4.2.2 The carcass should be supported by a back
board to stabilize and prevent it from turn-
ing while making the cut.
