saw blades according to your work. Insert the saw blade
straight into the blade clamp and tighten it by hex
wrench. Pull the saw blade lightly to make sure that the
saw blade does not fall off during operation.
To remove the saw blade, follow the installation
procedure in reverse.

OPERATION

012171
CAUTION:
Always press the shoe firmly against the workpiece
•
during operation. If the shoe is held away from the
workpiece during operation, strong vibration and/or
twisting will be produced, causing the blade to
snap dangerously.
Always wear gloves to protect your hands from hot
•
flying chips when cutting metal.
Be sure to always wear suitable eye protection
•
which conforms with current national standards.
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when
•
cutting metal. Failure to do so will cause premature
blade wear.
Press the shoe firmly against the workpiece. Do not
allow the tool to bounce. Bring the 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.
