CAUTION:
Although this unit employs a powerful motor, prolonged use at a low speed will increase the load unduly and may lead to overheating. Properly adjust the saw blade to allow steady, smooth cutting operation, avoiding any unreasonable use such as sudden stops during cutting operation.
HOW TO USE THE RECIPROCATING SAW
CAUTION:
Avoid carrying it plugged to the outlet with your finger on the switch. A sudden startup can result in an unexpected injury.
Be careful not to let sawdust, earth, moisture, etc., enter the inside of the machine through the plunger section during operation. If sawdust and the like accumulate in the plunger section, always clean it before use.
Do not remove the front cover (refer to Fig. 2). Be sure to hold the body from the top of the front cover.
During use, press the base against the material while cutting.
Vibration can damage the saw blade if the base is not pressed firmly against the workpiece. Furthermore, a tip of the saw blade can sometimes contact the inner wall of the pipe, damaging the saw blade.
Select a saw blade of the most appropriate length. Ideally, the length protruding from the base of the saw blade after subtracting the stroke should be larger than the material (see Fig. 16 and Fig. 18). If you cut a large pipe, large block of wood, etc., that exceeds the cutting capacity of a blade; there is a risk that the blade may contact with the inner wall of the pipe, wood, etc., resulting in damage. (Fig. 17, Fig. 19)

1.Cutting metallic materials
CAUTION:
Press the base firmly against the workpiece.
Never apply any unreasonable force to the saw blade when cutting. Doing so can easily break the blade.
