WORKING HINTS FOR
YOUR CORDLESS
RECIPROCATING SAW
If your power tool becomes too hot, run no-load
for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged
usage at very low speeds.
Always use a blade suited to the material and
material thickness to be cut.
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or
clamped to prevent movement.
Any movement of the material may affect the quality
of the cut. The blade cuts on the upward stroke and
may chip the uppermost surface or edges of your
work piece when cutting, ensure your uppermost
surface is a non-visible surface when your work is
finished.
