TURNING THE SAW ON/OFF
See Figure 2.
Follow these directions to turn the saw on and off.
To turn the saw on: Depress the switch trigger.
To turn the saw off: Release the switch trigger.
ADJUSTING THE SPEED
See Figure 3.
The variable speed feature allows the saw to operate at
speeds that can be increased by rotating the dial from 1 to
6. The dial is conveniently located on the handle, allowing
operator control of blade speed.
Follow these directions to adjust the speed.
To increase the speed: Turn the dial to a higher setting.
To decrease the speed: Turn the dial to a lower setting.
SELECTING BLADES
Selecting the correct type of blade is important in order to
obtain the best performance from your saw. Select the blade
based on the application and on the material you wish to
cut. Selecting the right blade will give you a smoother, faster
cut and prolong the life of the blade. Blades with fewer teeth,
10 teeth per inch (TPI) are typically used for cutting wood,
while blades with more teeth are better for cutting metal or
plastic. We recommend 14 TPI for plastics and soft metals
and 18 TPI for hard metals.
INSTALLING BLADES
The toolless blade change system eliminates the need for
tools when changing the blade.
See Figure 4.
Follow these directions to install blades.
Unplug the saw.
Lift the blade release lever.
Insert the blade fully, tooth side down.
Lower the blade release lever.
