your hand. Blocking the air vents could
cause the motor to overheat.
Operating Speeds
The speed of your saw is variable from 550 -
3900 SPM (strokes per minute).
The footplate tilts in order to keep as much of
the surface in contact with the work surface.
Keep the saw footplate firmly against the
work to minimize counterforce (jumping) and
vibration.
Using the Saw
1. Securely clamp the work.
2. Mark the line of cut and grasp the tool
with one hand on the rotary tool, and the
other hand firmly grasping the insulated
rubber housing on the saw.

where live wiring exists, you may be
shocked or electrocuted.
3. Turn the rotary tool on and let the saw
reach full speed before starting the cut.
Guide the saw so the blade will move
along the marked line.

blade extends through the
footplate for the entire stroke length. Do
not use specialty blades that are very
short or those with a significant cant.
Blade must not contact footplate. A blade
which is too short or canted, could jam
inside the footplate and snap.
Higher speed settings are generally used for
fast cutting, or when cutting softer materials
such as wood, composite materials, and
plastics. Slower speed settings are generally
used when precision is required, or when cut-
ting harder materials.
NOTE: If the tool is "chewing" rather than cut-
ting the material, use a higher speed setting.
