WARNING:
•
Make sure your workpiece is well secured. Remove
nails, screws and other fasteners that may damage
the blade.
•
Check that there is sufficient space for the blade
underneath the workpiece. Do not cut materials that
are thicker than the maximum cutting depth.
•
Use sharp saw blades only. Damaged or bent saw
blades must be removed immediately.
•
Never run your tool without a saw blade.
•
For optimal results, move the tool smoothly and
constantly over the workpiece. Do not exert lateral
13
pressure on the saw blade. Keep the shoe flat on the
workpiece. When sawing curves, circles or other round
shapes, push the tool gently forward.
•
Wait until the tool has come to a standstill before
removing the saw blade from the workpiece. After
sawing the blade may be very hot. Do not touch.
