OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3. Pivoting Shoe Adjustment
For maximum control and longer blade life, the pivoting
shoe assembly (B) slides in or out to adjust the effective
stroke length.
a. Remove the battery pack from the saw.
b. Pivot the shoe-release lever (D) to the vertical
position to release the pivoting shoe.
c. Pull the shoe to the desired position.
d. Pivot the shoe-release lever to its original position to
tighten the shoe.
4. Pivoting the Shoe
The pivoting shoe (B) pivots to provide maximum contact
with the surface being cut.
a. Remove the battery pack from the saw.
b. Hold the saw securely, then pivot the shoe to the
desired angle.
WARNING
• To avoid injury and damage, do not operate the
saw without the pivoting shoe in place. The spindle
may strike against the work piece and damage the
reciprocating mechanism.
5. LED Work light
The LED work light (C), located on the front of the saw,
will illuminate when the variable-speed trigger switch (G) is
depressed. This provides additional light on the surface of
the work piece for operation in lower-light areas.
The LED worklight will turn off when the variable-speed
trigger switch is released.
a. The LED work light will blink rapidly if the tool has
stopped working in order to protect internal circuits;
please wait for the tool to cool down, at which point it
can be started again.
b. The LED work light will blink slowly to indicate that
the battery charge is very low.
