OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Before using the tool, read the
instruction book carefully.
INTENDED USE:
The machine is intended for sawing wood,
plastic, metal and building materials while
resting firmly on the workpiece. It is suitable
for straight and curved cuts.
1. ON/OFF SWITcH
Depress the button to start and release it to
stop your tool.
2. VARIABLE SPEED cONTROL
Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
controlled trigger switch. The tool can be
turned "ON" or "OFF" by squeezing or
releasing the trigger. The blade plunger stroke
rate can be adjusted from the minimum to
maximum by the pressure you apply to the
trigger. Apply more pressure to increase the
speed and release pressure to decrease speed
(See Fig. A)
3. HAND GRIP AREAS
Always hold your saw firmly with both hands
when operating (See Fig. A).
4. TOOL-LESS BLADE FITTING
To install the blade (See Fig. B and Fig. C),
disconnect the saw from power supply. If
necessary, extend the pivoting blade foot
away from the blade clamp for easier access.
Pull the tool-less blade clamp lever (3) up
with your thumb, as shown. Insert the blade
into the saw's blade clamp and make sure
that the blade attaches to the blade pin inside
the clamp. Push down blade clamp lever (3)
ensure the blade is locked securely in place.
To remove Blade (See Fig. B and Fig. C)
Disconnect saw from power supply. If
necessary, extend the pivoting blade foot
away from the blade clamp for easier access.
First, pull the blade clamp lever (3) up with
your thumb, and then pull the blade out of the
blade clamp.

5. PIVOTING BLADE FOOT
ADJUSTmENT
If you need to reduce the cutting capacity
of your tool the pivoting blade foot (4) may
be adjusted as follows: Using the hex key
provided, loosen the two screws on the
underside of the front housing (See Fig.
D). Slide the pivoting blade foot to give the
required distance from the end of the blade
(See Fig. D) to the pivoting blade foot (This
distance equals new cutting capacity). Then
securely tighten both screws. The pivoting
blade foot slide is now locked but the pivoting
blade foot will continue to pivot, as it must
follow your work surface.
6. PIVOTING BLADE FOOT
The pivoting blade foot must be held firmly
against the material being cut to reduce saw
vibration, blade jumping and blade breakage.
7. FLUSH cUTTING
It is possible to make cuts extremely close to
floors, walls and other difficult areas. Insert
the blade shank into the blade clamp with
the blade teeth facing up (opposite to normal
working position). This will make cuts closer
to the work surface (See Fig. E). Using special
flexible blades insert the blade into the blade
clamp with the blade teeth facing down
(normal working position). It will allow flush
pipe cutting (See Fig. F).
8. WOOD cUTTING
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly
clamped to prevent movement. For easier
control use low speed to start cutting, then
increase to the correct speed (See Fig. G).
9. mETAL cUTTING
This saw has different metal cutting capacities
depending upon the type of blade being used
and metal being cut.
ALWAyS clamp the work down to prevent it
from slipping.
Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a
coarse blade for non-ferrous metals.
When cutting thin gauge sheet metals,
ALWAyS clamp wood on both sides of the
sheet. This will give you a clean cut without
