OPERATING TIPS AND MAINTENANCE

Operating Guides and Tips

Avoid overloading the trim saw. Always use sharp saw blades. Do not apply excessive pressure to the trim saw while using. If the speed drops abnormally, decrease pressure immediately. If the blade stops abruptly or becomes jammed, release the trigger at once.

Ensure the safety of the workplace.

Clear the work area of all parts and debris that may cause injury by flying objects. Securely fix the object to be sawn in a vise or otherwise clamp to avoid injury. Do not attempt to hold workpiece by hand.

Inspect the trim saw before use. Run the saw before using to ensure all parts are running smoothly and there are no abnormal sounds or sparks. If any defect is found, have unit serviced.

Match your feed rate to the material.

Use a lower rate of feeding the saw through the material when cutting hard materials. In softer material such as drywall or soft woods, you can feed the saw faster.

Know your worksite. Only saw as deep as necessary. Check behind walls for for wires, other electrical hazards, or plumbing.
