RIP CUTS

The combination blade provided with your saw is for both cross cuts and rip cuts. Ripping is cutting lengthwise with the grain of the wood. Rip cuts are easy to do with a rip fence (Fig. 13). To attach fence, insert fence through slots in foot to desired width as shown and secure with the knob.

RIP BOARD GUIDE

When rip cutting large sheets, the rip fence may not allow the desired width of cut. Clamp or nail a straight piece of 1" (25 mm) lumber to the sheet as a guide (Fig. 14). Use the right side of the foot against the board guide.

INSERTING AND RELEASING BATTERY PACK

Set Forward/Reversing lever to the center (off position). Slide charged battery pack into the housing until the battery pack locks into position (Fig. 1).

Your tool is equipped with a secondary locking latch to prevent the battery pack from completely falling out of the handle, should it become loose due to vibration.

To remove the battery pack, press the battery pack release button and slide the battery pack forward.

Press the battery pack release button again and slide the battery pack completely out of tool housing (Fig. 1).

IMPORTANT CHARGING NOTES

1.The charger was designed to fast charge the battery only when the battery temperature is between 32˚F (0˚C) and 113˚F (45˚C). If the battery pack is too hot or too cold, the charger will not fast charge the battery. (This may happen if the battery pack is hot from heavy use). When the battery temperature returns to between 32˚F (0˚C) and 113˚F (45˚C), the charger will automatically begin charging.

2.A substantial drop in operating time per charge may mean that the battery pack is nearing the end of its life and should be replaced.

3.Remember to unplug charger during storage period.

4.If battery does not charge properly:

a. Check for voltage at outlet by plugging in some other electrical device.
