bracket, align blade with the marked line of cut, (b lade NOT touching work),as shown in Fig. 13. Start saw.
Using bracket as a pivot point, roll saw forward by raising rearhandle, as shown in Fig. 14. When blade

of teeth will contact the work. To make a pocket cut, drill a starting hole first. To extend blade life, cutting
oil can be applied to the work surface along the line of the cut.
