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 (fIGuRe o)
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 in a floor, wall, or
other flat surface.
• Adjust the saw foot plate so the blade cuts at
desired depth.
• Tilt the saw forward and rest front of the foot plate
P
on material to be cut.
• Using the retracting lever, retract lower blade
guard to an upward position. Lower rear of foot
plate until blade teeth almost touch cutting line.
• 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 auxiliary handle (3), as shown in
figure o. Position your body and arm to allow you to resist
kickback if it occurs.
• Make sure blade is not in contact with cutting surface before
starting saw.
• Start the motor and gradually lower the saw until its foot
plate rests flat on the material to be cut. Advance saw along
the cutting line until cut is completed.
• Release trigger and allow blade to stop completely before
withdrawing the blade from
the material.
• When starting each new cut, repeat as above.
