Refer to the table a t right to select the proper speed for the workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed may differ with the type or thickness of the work- piece. In general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced.
Workpiece to be cut | Number on adjusting dial |
Wood | 5 - 6 |
Mild steel | 3 - 6 |
Stainless steel | 3 - 4 |
Aluminum | 2 - 3 |
Plastics | 1 - 4 |
CAUTION:
Adjust the speed adjusting dial only within the range of numbers 1 through 6. Do not force the dial beyond this range or damage to the tool may result.
Cutting operation
CAUTION :
Check carefully that the blade is adequately secured in position before plugging the tool into electrical source.
Turn the tool on without the blade making any contact. Rest the base flat on the work- piece and gently move the tool forward along the previously marked cutting line.
