OPERATION INSTRUCTION
To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger while pressing the lock-off button. Tool speed is
increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.
SWITCH ACTION
1. Before plugging in the tool
,
always check to see that the switch trigger actuates
properly and returns to the "OFF" position
when released.
2. Switch can be locked in "ON" position for ease of operator comfort during
extended use. Apply caution when locking tool in
"ON" position and maintain firm
grasp on tool.
3.Return the switch trigger to the "OFF" position in case of accidental unplugging,
blackout, or the power is cut unintentionally. Otherwise the tool may start suddenly
when the
power returns and it may result in personal injury.
WARNING
1. Always hold the tool firmly with one hand on insulation cover and the other on the
switch handle.
2. Always press the shoe firmly against the workpiece during operation. If the shoe
is removed or held away from the workpiece during operation, strong vibration
and/or twisting will be produced, causing the blade to snap dangerously.
3. Always wear gloves to protect your hands from hot flying chips when cutting
metal.
4. Be sure to always wear suitable eye protection which conforms with current
national standards.
5. Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting metal. Failure to do so
will cause premature blade wear.
6. Do not quirk the blade during cutting.
WARNING
Press the shoe firmly against the workpiece. Do not allow
the tool to bounce. Bring the recipro saw blade into light
contact with the workpiece. First, make a pilot groove
using a slower speed. Then use a faster speed to
continue cutting.
Do not cut the workpiece with the shoe away from the workpiece or without the
shoe. Doing so increases the reaction force which may break the recipro saw blade.
WARNING
INSULATION COVER ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the insulation cover position, simply pull or push the insulation cover while pressing the
lock button.
