(1) Fasten a workpiece fi rmly before operation. (Fig. 22)
(2) When cutting metallic materials, use proper machine
oil (turbine oil, etc.). When not using liquid machine
oil, apply grease over the workpiece.
CAUTION
The service life of the saw blade will be
drastically shortened if you don't use machine
oil.
4. Cutting lumber
When cutting lumber, make sure that the workpiece is
fastened fi rmly before beginning. (Fig. 23)
CAUTION
● Never apply any unreasonable force to the saw
blade when cutting. Also remember to press the
base against the lumber fi rmly.
● Delay the feed speed when cutting the material
into small circular arcs. An unreasonably fast
feed may break the blade.
5. Plunge cutting
With this tool, you can perform plunge cutting on
plywood panels and thin board materials.
Use the saw blade that is as short and thick as
possible. Be sure to use caution during the cutting
operation and observe the following procedures.
(1) Press the base against the material, keeping the tip
of the blade away from the material when you pull the
trigger switch. (Fig. 24).
(2) Pull lightly on the trigger switch to maintain a low
speed as you gradually saw into the material.
(Fig. 25).
(3) Pull the switch all the way and slowly advance the
saw. (Fig. 26).

NOTE
○ Using the collar or the base as support, gradually cut
in from the tip of the blade.
○ As the base is metal, using it for support may scratch
or damage the surface depending on the material
being cut. In this case, use the collar as support. If
you remove the base when window cutting, make
sure it is re-attached to the tool when you continue
operating the tool.
CAUTION
● Avoid plunge cutting for metallic materials. This
can easily damage the blade.
● Never pull the Trigger switch while the tip of the
saw blade is pressed against the material. If you
do so, the blade can easily be damaged when it
collides with the material.
● Make absolutely sure that you cut slowly
while holding the body fi rmly. If you apply any
unreasonable force to the saw blade during
the cutting operation, the blade can easily be
damaged.
