as the workpiece.

When interrupting a cut, continue to hold the saw in
the plunge position, release the switch, and wait for the saw blade to come to
a complete stop. Release downward pressure to retract the blade. To resume,
with the power off, plunge the saw to cutting depth to ensure the blade is
