will turn the saw on. Releasing the trigger turns
the saw off.
NOTE: This tool has no provision to lock the
switch on. The saw should never be locked on
by any means.
Windows (Fig. 1)
The saw is equipped with a sight window (J)
on the side of the guard and a front window
(K) on the front of the guard. These windows
allow the user to see a cutting line on the
material to be cut.
WARNING: Do not operate the saw with a damaged or
missing sight or front window. If window is damaged or missing,
have the saw serviced at an authorized service center. If saw is
operated without the window, metal chips could fly through the
guard and cause personal injury.
CAUTION: Do not use oil or cutting fluids with the metal
saw. Do not use cleaning fluids to clean front window. Cleaning
fluids, cutting fluids, or oils could harm the plastic in the front
window, interferring with the safe operation of the saw.
Saw Shoe
The front of the saw shoe has a
kerf indicator (E) that allows the
operator to glide the saw along
cutting lines. Aligning the cutting
line with the notch on the front of
the shoe and centering it using the
"modified V" shaped kerf indicator
allows the operator to keep the
blade in line with the cutting line.
If the cutting line is visible through the narrowest part of the kerf
indicator, the blade will pass directly over the cutting line. The line

scribed across the saw shoe (L) indicates where the blade meets
the material to be cut when the saw is set at the full depth of cut.

Depth Adjustment

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before
making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments
or accessories.
The metal saw is equipped with a pivoting
shoe, that allows the operator to set the
depth of cut. For the most efficient cutting
action, set the depth adjustment so that
one tooth of the blade projects below the
material to be cut. This distance is from the
tip of the tooth to the bottom of the gullet in
front of the tooth. This keeps blade friction
at a minimum, removes metal chips from
the cut, results in cooler, faster sawing and
reduces the chance of kickback. To set the
depth of cut follow the steps below.
1. Lay the piece of material you plan to cut along the blade as
shown.
2. Note how much tooth projects beyond the material.
3. Loosen the depth adjustment knob and move the shoe to
change the depth of cut.
4. Retighten the depth ad just ment knob securely.
OPERATION
WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury,
turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before
making any adjustments or removing/installing attachments
or accessories.
