PLUNGE CUTTING (Figure 6)
Mark the line of the cut clearly. Choose a convenient starting point inside the area to be cut out and place the tip of the blade over that point. Rest the front edge of the base (shoe) on the work area and hold firmly in position. Depress the
WARNING: Make sure the blade does not touch work until motor reaches full speed, since this could cause loss of control resulting in serious injury.
With the saw blade at full cutting speed, slowly tilt saw downward until the tip of the blade starts cutting work. After blade penetrates work, tilt saw until blade is perpendicular to the work.
METAL CUTTING (Figure 7)
Metals such as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods, aluminum, brass and copper may be cut with your saw. Be careful not to twist or bend the saw blade. Do not force. We recommend cutting oil when cutting most soft metals and steel. Cutting oil will also keep blades cool, increase cutting action and prolong blade life.
Never use gasoline since normal sparking of motor could ignite fumes. Clamp the work firmly and cut close to the clamping point to eliminate any vibration of the object being cut. When cutting conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp work in a vise if possible and cut close to the vise. To cut thin sheet material, “sandwich”
the material between hardboard or plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration and material tearing.
MAINTENANCE OF THE SAW:
WARNING: Always remove the battery pack from your saw when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, assembling or removing blades, cleaning or when not in use. Removing the battery pack will prevent accidental starting that could cause serious personal injury.
WARNING: Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline,
Use only clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc. Chemical solvents can damage the plastic.
