Workpiece and Work Area Set Up
y fet Sa
1.Designate a work area that is clean and well lit. The work area must not allow access by children or pets to prevent distraction and injury.
2.Route the power cord along a safe route to reach the work area without creating a tripping hazard or exposing the power cord to possible damage. The power cord must reach the work area with enough extra length to allow free movement while working.
3.Secure loose workpieces using a vise or clamps (not included) to prevent movement while working.
4.There must not be objects, such as utility lines, nearby that will present a hazard while working.
General Operating Instructions
The Saw features a variable speed Trigger. For increased strokes per minute, squeeze the Trigger harder. For decreased strokes per minute, apply less pressure to the Trigger.
