OPERATION

SWITCH TRIGGER

See Figure 5.

To turn the saw ON, depress and hold lock-off button, then

depress the switch trigger. To turn it OFF, release the switch

trigger.

WARNING:

This tool is designed to work with T-shank blades. Use

with non-T-shank blades may result in blades coming

loose from tool, resulting in personal injury or property

damage.

BLADE SELECTION

To obtain the best performance from the saw, it is important

to select a specific blade for the particular application and

type of material you wish to cut. By doing this you will get

a smoother, faster cut and prolong blade life.

NOTE: This tool is designed to work with T-shank blades.

Other types of saw blades are not guaranteed to work properly

and may come loose from the tool.

INSTALLING BLADES

See Figure 6.

 Remove battery pack.

 Lift blade clamp lock located on front of saw.

 Insert saw blade between blade clamp and saw bar.

 Close blade clamp lock.

 Replace battery pack.

GENERAL CUTTING

See Figure 7.

Rest the front of the saw base on the workpiece and align

cutting edge of the blade with the line on your workpiece.

Start the saw and move it forward on the work surface.

Apply downward pressure to keep the saw steady and only

enough forward pressure to keep the blade cutting. Do not

force the saw. Forcing the saw may overheat the motor and

break saw blades. Broken saw blades must be replaced with

new saw blades.

ORBITAL MOTION

See Figure 7.

The blade of the saw cuts in orbital motion. This feature

is adjustable and provides faster, more efficient cutting.

With orbital motion, the blade cuts through your work in

the upstroke but does not drag across your work in the

downstroke. The higher settings should be used when fast

cutting in soft material is desired. The lower settings should

be used when cutting materials with more resistance.
