Sawing

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury,always hold the tool with both hands.
Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting
the cut.
Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while
performing the cut.
Work with the shoe pressed against the workpiece.
Hints for Optimum Use
As some splintering along the line of cut on the top side
of the workpiece cannot be avoided, cut on the side
where splintering is acceptable.
Where splintering is to be minimized, e.g. when cutting
laminates, clamp a piece of plywood onto the top of
the workpiece.
Pocket Cutting (Fig. L)

WARNING: Never tie the blade guard in a raised
position. Never move the saw backwards when pocket
cutting. This may cause the unit to raise up off the
work surface which could cause injury.
A pocket cut is one that is made when the edge of the
material does not push the lower guard open, but the
bottom edge of the rotating blade cuts into the middle of
the material.
1. Adjust the shoe 
4
so the blade cuts at desired depth.
2. Tilt the saw forward and rest front of the shoe on
material to be cut.
3. Using the retracting lever, retract lower blade guard to
an upward position. Lower rear of shoe until blade teeth
almost touch cutting line.
4. Release the blade guard (its contact with the work
will keep it in position to open freely as you start the
cut). Remove hand from guard lever and firmly grip
secondary handle 
3
, as shown in Figure L. Position your
body and arm to allow you to resist kickback if it occurs.

5. Make sure blade is not in contact with cutting surface
before starting saw.
6. Start the motor, allow saw to come to full speed, and
then gradually lower the saw until its shoe rests flat on
8
the material to be cut. Advance saw along the cutting
line until cut is completed.
7. Release trigger and allow blade to stop completely
before withdrawing the blade from the material.
8. When starting each new cut, repeat as above.
