Plunge cuts are made by positioning the saw on the
workpiece so that the blade begins cutting as soon as it
is lowered. Plunge cuts work well for removing an area
within the workpiece without sawing through the outer
perimeter.
To make plunge cuts, do these steps:
1.
Mark the desired start and stop cut-points on your
workpiece.
2.
Set the depth of cut (as described in the
Setting
Cutting Depth
section on
Page
21
).
3.
Align the start cut-point with the rear cutting
indicator arrow (see
Figure 19
). This arrow marks
the maximum rear cutting distance the blade will
travel when fully extended.
Note:
The front and rear cutting indicator arrows
are only accurate when the blade is fully extended.
If the saw depth gauge is set, the maximum cutting
distance will be less.
Making blind plunge cuts without
checking your cutting path for unseen
objects could result in injury from
kickback, electrocution, building
damage or fire, gas explosions, or
death. Whenever making a blind
plunge cut into a standing structure
(like a wall), always check the cutting
path for hidden wires, nails, and other
metal objects by thoroughly scanning
the area with an electric stud finder
or similar device. NEVER risk a blind
plunge cut without first checking your
cutting path.
Whenever operating the saw in the
vicinity of live wires, always wear
insulated gloves. Avoid unintentionally
grounding yourself when operating
the saw by being in contact with
electrically-conductive materials
(metal pipes, appliances, etc.).
