1. Always grasp the saw with both hands on the handles and push the saw through
the material.
2. Be sure there are no nails or any other foreign objects in, on the work piece, or in the
path of the blade. They could cause damage to the saw blade, injury from kickback
or even injury from flying debris.
3. Make sure the work piece is properly supported at all times. Plan so that it is
properly supported during the cut.
4. Whenever possible, secure the work piece with clamps or in a vise. Do not hold
short pieces by hand while cutting.
5. When making cuts parallel to existing straight edges, whenever possible, insert the
rip fence into the slots at the front of the saw. Fasten it in place at the desired
distance, with the screw clamp provided, and use it to help keep the cut as straight
and parallel as possible.
6. Mark the line of the cut clearly. Adjust the cutting depth to the thickness of the
workpiece.
7. Make sure you are fully prepared to begin your cut before squeezing the trigger
switch. Do not reach underneath the workpiece.

imperative. Check to make sure that saw blade travel is not obstructed. Squeeze the
trigger switch.
10. Allow the saw blade to reach full speed before pushing it into the work piece.
11. Do not force the saw blade into the work piece. Apply moderate pressure, allowing
the blade to cut without being forced.
12. Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure the workpiece
to a stable platform.
13. When ripping always use a rip fence or straight edge guide.
14. This tool is designed to make straight cuts only. Do not attempt to cut curves with it.
