SHOE ASSEMBLY
See Figure 3, page 9.
The shoe assembly of the reciprocating saw pivots up and
down in both directions. It is adjustable, allowing the use of
the blade teeth at different positions on the blade.
To change positions of shoe assembly:
Remove battery pack.
Loosen the set screw near the shoe assembly with the
hex key provided with this saw.
NOTE: Hex key storage is located in the handle of the
saw.
Reposition shoe assembly to desired position.
Retighten set screw securely. Do not overtighten screw
or use an aid with the hex key.
Remove hex key and store for later use.
Replace the battery pack.
OPERATION
TURNING THE SAW ON/OFF
See Figure 4, page 9.
The lock-off button, located on the handle above the switch
trigger, reduces the possibility of accidental starting.
To turn the saw on: Slide lock-off button to the unlocked
position, and press the switch trigger.
To turn the saw off: Release the switch trigger.
CAUTION:
The lock-off button should be in the locked position when
the saw is not in use or is being transported.
ORBITAL ACTION
See Figure 5, page 9.
Use the orbital action selector to select either a linear stroke
or orbital cutting action. A linear stroke is best for making
smooth cuts while orbital action is best for making a faster cut.
To select orbital action:
Remove the battery pack.
Flip up the orbital action selector tab. Rotate the tab to
select the orbital action icon.
Push the tab down into place.
NOTE: To prevent damage to the tool, always allow motor
to come to a complete stop before using the orbital action
selector.
NOTE: Do not use the orbital action setting when using a
metal cutting blade.
GENERAL CUTTING
See Figure 6, page 9.
WARNING:
Make sure the blade does not touch work until motor
reaches full speed, since this could cause loss of control
resulting in serious injury.
Secure the workpiece to a work bench or table with a
vise or with clamps.
Mark the line of cut clearly.
Make sure the saw blade teeth are clean of any debris or
foreign material.
Hold the saw firmly in front of and clearly away from you.
Slide the lock-off button to the unlocked position and
depress the switch trigger.
Allow the saw blade to reach full cutting speed.
Set the shoe assembly against the workpiece.
Move the blade into the workpiece.
NOTE: Do not force. Use only enough pressure to keep
the saw cutting. Let the blade and saw do the work. Keep
pressure on the shoe, against the workpiece.
