Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool. If
both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by the
blade. Set the base on the workpiece to be cut without
the blade making any contact. Then turn the tool on and
wait until the blade attains full speed. Now simply move
the tool forward over the workpiece surface, keeping it
flat and advancing smoothly until the sawing is
completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and
your speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to
properly follow your intended cut line, do not attempt to
turn or force the tool back to the cut line. Doing so may
bind the blade and lead to dangerous kickback and
possible serious injury. Release switch, wait for blade to
stop and then withdraw tool. Realign tool on new cut
line, and start cut again. Attempt to avoid positioning
which exposes operator to chips and wood dust being
ejected from saw. Use eye protection to help avoid
injury.
Rip fence (Guide rule) (optional accessory)

The handy rip fence allows you to do extra-accurate
straight cuts. Simply slide the rip fence up snugly
against the side of the workpiece and secure it in
position with the clamping screw on the front of the base.
It also makes repeated cuts of uniform width possible.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
unplugged before attempting to perform inspection
or maintenance.
• Clean out the upper and lower guards to
ensure there is no accumulated sawdust which
may impede the operation of the lower
guarding system. A dirty guarding system may
limit the proper operation which could result in
serious personal injury. The most effective way to
accomplish this cleaning is with compressed air. If
the dust is being blown out of the guards, be
sure the proper eye and breathing protection is
used.
• Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or
the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may
result.
Adjusting for parallelism

015333
The parallelism between the blade and the base has
been factory adjusted. But if it is off, you can adjust it as
the following procedure.
Make sure all levers and screws are tightened. Slightly
loosen the screw as illustrated. While opening the lower
guard, move the rear of base so that the distance A and
B are equal. After adjusting, tighten the screw. Make a
test cut to get a correct parallelism.
