Hold the blade in place and turn the blade-tightening
lever counterclockwise until it hits against the protrusion
on the frame. This places proper tension on the blade.
Make sure that the blade is correctly positioned within
the blade guard and around the wheels.
Start and stop the tool two or three times to make sure
that the blade runs properly on the wheels.
CAUTION:
•
While making sure that the blade runs on the
wheels properly, keep your body away from the
blade area.
To remove the blade, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.
CAUTION:
•
When turning the blade tightening lever clockwise
to release the tension on the blade, point the tool
downward because the blade may come off
unexpectedly.

In the ordinary operation, protrude the stopper plate to
the A side fully.

Select the proper cutting position for your workpiece by
referring to the figure.

Hold the tool with both hands as shown in the figure with
the stopper plate contacting the workpiece and the blade
clear of the workpiece.
CAUTION:
•
ONLY USE FORWARD AND REAR HANDLES
TO HOLD TOOL. Tool body or guards are never
to be used as grasping surfaces.
Hands may slip
from these locations and contact blade. Contact
with the blade may result in personal injury.
Turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains full
speed. Gently lower the blade into the cut. The weight of
the tool or slightly pressing the tool will supply adequate
pressure for the cutting. Do not force the tool.
As you reach the end of a cut, release pressure and,
without actually raising the tool, lift it slightly so that it will
not fall against the workpiece.
