OPERATION INSTRUCTION
Switching on and off
Note: Before engaging the on/off switch, check the saw blade to see if it is fitted properly and runs
smoothly, and the blade clamp screw is well tightened.

Connect the plug to the power supply.

To start the tool, depress the unlock button (5) and press the switch trigger (6).

Release the trigger (6) to turn the tool off.
Depth adjustment

Loosen the cutting depth setting clamp (9) by lifting the lock lever.

Hold the base plate (14) flat against the body of the work piece and lift the body of the saw until the
blade is at the right depth.

Tighten the depth locking lever.
Angle adjustment

Loosen the lock lever knob for angle adjustment (11).

Adjust the base plate (14) to the desired angle between 0° to 45°.

Tighten the lock lever knob for angle adjustment (11).
Note: for best cutting results, always ensure that saw blade protrudes no more than 3 mm below
the bottom surface of the workpiece.
General cut

Mark a cutting line on the workpiece.

Rest the front part of the shoe flat on the workpiece surface with the blade not making any contact
with the workpiece.

Switch on the tool and allow it to reach its full speed.

Align the saw blade with the cutting line on the workpiece, gently push the saw forward.
Never force the saw but maintain a light and continuous pressure when completing the cut. Switch off the
tool only after the tool is completely away from the workpiece When the cutting is interrupted, resume
the cut by allowing the blade to reach full speed and then reentering the cut slowly.

When cutting across the grain, the fibers of the wood will have a tendency to lift and tear, moving the
saw slowly to minimize this effect.
Note: there are two notches on the front edge of the shoe as an aid for alignment. When making a
45° bevel cut, just align the left notch marked with 45° with the cutting line on the workpiece. For a
straight 90° cut, align the right notch marked with 0° with the cutting line on the workpiece. For
precise cutting, always make a trial cut before carrying out operation.
Pocket cutting

Disconnect the plug from the power supply before making any adjustments. Set the depth adjustment
based on the thickness of the line drawing for the cut .raise the lower guard by using the lift lever.

With the blade barely above the material to be cut, start the saw and allow the blade to come to full
speed. Gradually lower the blade unto the material to be cut using the front end of the shoe as a pivot
point. When the blade starts cutting, release the lower guard. When the shoe is resting flat on the
surface being cut, proceed cutting in a forward direction to the end of the cut. Allow the blade to come
to a full stop before removing it from the cut. Never pull the saw backward since the blade will climb
out of the cut and kickback will occur. Turn the saw around and finish the cut in a normal manner,
sawing forward. Use a jigsaw or a hand saw to finish the cut in the corners, if required.
