OPERATION
STRAIGHT CUT
See Figures 7 and 8.
Your saw is equipped with a lock for locking the scrolling knob in the forward facing position. This should be locked for all straight cuts as shown in figure 8. A straight cut can be made by clamping a piece of wood or straightedge to the workpiece and guiding the edge of the saw against it. Make the cut from one direction only. Don't cut halfway and complete the cut from the opposite end.You can also use the supplied edge guide as shown in figure 8. Loosen the thumb screw and insert the end of the edge guide through the two slots in the base. Measure the distance to cut and tighten the thumb screw. Place the edge guide on the outside edge of the workpiece and cut in a straight path.
WARNING:
To avoid possible serious injury, keep hands and fingers from between the gear housing and saw blade clamp, and keep the guard in place.
WARNING:
Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in broken blades or damage to the material being cut.
