When changing blade, make sure to also clean upper
and lower blade guards of accumulated chips and
particles. Such efforts do not, however, replace the need
to check lower guard operation before each use.

OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always insert the battery cartridge all the way until
•
it locks in place. If you can see the red part on the
upper side of the button, it is not locked completely.
Insert it fully until the red part cannot be seen. If not,
it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury
to you or someone around you.
Be sure to move the tool forward in a straight line
•
gently. Forcing or twisting the tool will result in
overheating the motor and dangerous kickback,
possibly causing severe injury.
If the tool is operated continuously until the battery
•
cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest for
15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
Never twist or force the tool in the cut. This may
•
cause motor
kickback, resulting in serious injury to the operator.
Always wear eye protection or goggle before
•
operation.

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 the tool, 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 cutting is
