(1)Fasten a workpiece firmly before operation. (Fig. 27)
(2)When cutting metallic materials, use proper machine oil (turbine oil, etc.). When not using liquid machine oil, apply grease over the workpiece.
CAUTION: The service life of the saw blade will be drastically shortened if you don’t use machine oil.
3.Cutting lumber
When cutting lumber, make sure that the workpiece is fastened firmly before beginning. (Fig. 28)
CAUTION: Never apply any unreasonable force to the saw blade when cutting. Also remember to press the base against the lumber firmly.
4.Sawing curved lines
We recommend that you use the BIMETAL blade mentioned in Page 31 for the saw blade since it is tough and hardly breaks.
CAUTION: Delay the feed speed when cutting the material into small circular arcs. An unreasonably fast feed may break the blade.
5.Plunge cutting
With this tool, you can perform pocket cutting on plywood panels and thin board materials. You can carry out pocket cutting quite easily with the saw blade installed in reverse as illustrated in Fig. 30, Fig. 32, and Fig. 34. Use the saw blade that is as short and thick as possible. We recommend for this purpose that you use
(1)Press the lower part (or the upper part) of the base against the material. Pull the switch trigger while keeping the tip of the saw blade apart from the material. (Fig. 29, Fig. 30)
(2)Raise the handle slowly and cut in with the saw blade little by little. (Fig. 31, Fig. 32)
(3)Hold the body firmly until the saw blade completely cuts into the material. (Fig. 33, Fig. 34)
