1.
Variable-Speed Trigger Switch
Your saw is equipped with a trigger switch (A) to turn
the saw on and off, and to control the speed.
a. To start the saw, depress the lock-off button (S) and
then squeeze the trigger switch.
b. To stop the saw, release the trigger switch and allow
it to return to the “OFF” position.
c. To vary the speed, simply increase or decrease the
pressure on the trigger switch. The more tightly the
trigger switch is squeezed, the higher the speed.
2. To Attach Battery Pack
a. Ensure that the trigger switch is in the ‘off’ position.
b. Align the raised rib on the battery pack with the
grooves on the bottom of the saw, and then attach
the battery pack to the saw.
NOTiCE
: Make sure that the latch on the battery pack
snaps into place and the battery pack is secured to the
tool before beginning operation.
CauTiON:
When placing the battery pack on the
tool, be sure that the raised rib on battery pack aligns
with the groove on the saw and the latches snap into
place properly. Improper assembly of the battery pack
can cause damage to internal components.
To Detach Battery Pack (Fig. 2)
a. Ensure that the trigger switch is in the ‘off’ position.
b. Depress the battery-release button located on the front of the battery pack to release the battery
pack.
c. Pull the battery forward to remove from the tool.
Saw Blades
a. The best saw blades will not cut efficiently if they are not kept clean, sharp, and properly set.
Using a dull blade will place a heavy load on the saw and increase the danger of kickback. Keep
extra blades on hand so sharp blades are always available.
b. Gum and resin on blades will slow the saw down. Follow the instructions for REMOVING A SAW
BLADE, use gum and resin remover, hot water, or kerosene to remove these accumulations.
warNiNG:
Do not use gasoline to clean the blade.
