12. Cutting
1. STRAIGHT CUTTING
A straight cut can be made by clamping a piece of wood or a straightedge to the work
piece and guiding the edge of the tool against it. Make the cut from one direction only.
NEVER cut halfway and then complete the cut from the opposite end.
2. CUTTING CURVES
Curved cuts can be made with the saw by guiding the direction of the cut with
applied pressure on the handle.
3. PLUNGE CUTTING
To avoid loss of control, broken blades, or damage to the material
being cut, always use extreme caution.
We do not recommend making plunge cuts in materials other than wood.
1. Use only a blade with 7 teeth per inch to make a plunge cut.
2. Clearly mark the line of cut on the work piece.
3. Set the cutting angle to 0° and the orbital adjustment knob to 0.
4. Tilt the saw forward so that it rests on the front edge of the base and the blade will not
come in contact with the work piece when the saw is turned on.
5. Make sure that, when the blade is lowered onto the work piece, it will be inside
the area to be cut.
6. Using high speed, start the saw and slowly lower blade into the work piece until
the blade cuts through the wood.
7. Do not move the base forward until the blade has cut entirely through the work
piece and the base is in complete contact with the work piece.
8. Move the saw forward to complete the cut.
13. Trigger switch
■ To stop the saw, release the trigger switch and allow the tool to come to a complete stop.
The electric brake quickly stops the saw blade. This feature engages automatically when you
release the trigger switch.
