OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
TURNING ON AND OFF
(fig 6)
1. To turn the saw ON, press the lock-off button and while
holding it down, press the trigger switch. (The lock-off
button can be pressed on either side.)
2. To turn the tool OFF, release the trigger switch.
VARIABLE-SPEED TRIGGER SWITCH
Your tool is equipped with a variable-speed trigger
switch. The speed can be adjusted from the minimum
to maximum SPM by the pressure you apply to the
trigger. Apply more pressure to increase the speed
and decrease pressure to the decrease speed.
ELECTRICAL BRAKE
When the trigger is released it activates the electrical
brake to stop the blade quickly. This feature is
especially useful when making repetitive cuts.
BLADE-ACTION SELECTOR LEVER
(fig 7)
Maximum cutting efficiency can be obtained by
adjusting the blade-action selector lever to suit the material being cut.
The following table will help you determine which setting to use for your application. This table is
intended as a guideline only, and test cuts in scrap material should be performed first to determine the
best setting.
