TRIGGER

BY A TRIGGER SWITCH:

 

The speed of the Reciprocating Saw depends on the amount of pressure applied on the trigger.

The further the trigger is pressed, the faster the tool will go.

To maintain a certain speed, pull the “On/Off” trigger to turn the Reciprocating Saw “ON” and engage the lock-on button. To turn the Reciprocating Saw “OFF”, release the trigger switch. The lock-on button will automatically reset.

GENERAL CUTTING

Always hold the saw in front of you and away from your body. Keep your hands and feet well away from the work piece.

Never feed the blade into the work piece until the blade is at full speed. If the blade is not at full speed, the saw may kick back causing serious personal injury.

Do not force the saw. Excessive force may result in a broken blade. Use only enough pressure to keep the saw moving through the work piece.

• Put on eye protection.

• Clear the saw of any foreign material.

• Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces in a vise or attach to the workbench with clamps.

• Mark out the line to be cut so it is easily visible.

TO ATTACH BLADE:

Turn the blade clamp to the right with fingers.
