Operation
CAUTION :
.Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece, etc. before the switch is turned on.
Do not apply excessive pressure on the handle when cutting. Too much force may result in overload of the motor and/or decreased cutting efficiency.
*Gently press down the handle to perform the cut. If the handle is pressed down with force or if lateral force is applied, the blade will vibrate and leave a mark (saw mark) in the workpiece and the precision of the cut will be impaired.
During a slide cut, gently push the carriage toward the guide fence without stopping. If the carriage movement i s stopped during the cut, a mark will be left in the workpiece and the precision of the cut will be impaired.
