Makita 3706 Instruction Manual page 6

When the cut is complete, turn the tool off and wait for
the bit to stop rotating and then carefully remove it from
the material.
NOTE:
1. When using this tool, the rotating action causes the
tool to pull. The less pressure applied to the tool
causes less pull and provides a more accurate cut.
Excessive pressure or fast cutting can cause the bit
to dull or break premature.
2. When cutting drywall around outlet boxes, cut in a
counterclockwise direction for ease of cut.
3. The standard bit included with this tool is for cutting
drywall only. When cutting materials other than dry-
wall, do not use the standard drywall guide bit.
