VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL SELECTOR
See Figure 3.
The saw has a variable speed control selector designed to
allow operator control and adjustment of speed and power
limits. The speed and power of the saw can be increased or
decreased by rotating the variable speed control selector in
the direction of the arrows as shown in figure 3.
NOTE:
Hold the saw in normal operating position and turn
the variable speed control selector to the higher letters to
increase speed and power. Turn to the lower letters to de-
crease speed and power.
If you desire to lock the switch on at a given speed, depress
the switch trigger, push in and hold the lock-on button, and
release the switch trigger. Next, adjust the variable speed
control selector until the desired speed is reached.
To release:

If you have the lock-on feature engaged during use and the
saw becomes disconnected from power supply, disengage
the lock-on feature immediately.
WARNING:
Before connecting the saw to power supply source,
always check to be sure it is not in lock-on position
(depress and release switch trigger). Failure to do
so could result in accidental starting of the saw
resulting in possible serious injury. Also, do not
lock the trigger on jobs where the saw may need
to be stopped suddenly.
WARNING:
Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you
careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a
second is sufficient to inflict severe injury.

side shields when operating tools. Failure to do
so could result in objects being thrown into your
