RISK REDUCTION
It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools
may contribute to a condition called Raynaud's Syndrome
in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling,
numbness and blanching of the fingers, usually apparent
upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to
cold and dampness, diet, smoking, and work practices
are all thought to contribute to the development of these
symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by the
operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration:
Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating
the product, wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists
warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor
contributing to Raynaud's Syndrome.
After each period of operation, exercise to increase
blood circulation.
Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of
exposure per day.
If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition,
immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about
these symptoms.
WARNING
Injuries may be caused or aggravated by prolonged use
of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods,
ensure you take regular breaks.

OPERATION
ADJUSTING THE SHOE ASSEMBLY
The product has a shoe assembly that pivots up and
down in both directions to ensure the shoe is flat
against the cutting surface at all times. The adjustable
shoe also slides in and out, which allows for the use of
the blade teeth at different positions on the blade.
Press the saw blade into the saw blade holder up to the
stop. Make sure that the saw blade is fixed securely.
OPERATION TIPS
You may cut metals such as sheet steel, pipe steel rods,
aluminum, brass, and copper with the product.
WARNING
Be careful not to twist or bend the saw blade.
Do not force the product.
Use cutting oil when cutting soft metals and steel.
Cutting oil also keeps the blades cool, increases cutting
2 2
action, and prolongs blade life.
Never use gasoline since normal sparking of motor
could ignite fumes.
Clamp the workpiece firmly and cut close to the
clamping point to eliminate any vibration of the work.
When cutting conduit pipe or angle iron, secure the
workpiece with a vise, if possible, and cut close to the
vise. To cut a thin-sheet material, place the material
between two hardboards or plywood and clamp the
layers to eliminate vibration and material tearing.
Always keep firm pressure on the base to hold it
securely against the workpiece.
Do not use cracked or distorted saw blades. Do not use
saw blades that are damaged or deformed.
WARNING
Dust from certain paints, coatings, and materials may
cause irritation or allergic reactions. Dust from wood
such as oak, beech, MDF, and others are carcinogenic.
Materials containing asbestos should only be worked on
or processed by qualified specialist operators.
WARNING
Always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with
side shields when operating the product. Failure to do
so could result in objects being thrown into your eyes
resulting in possible serious injury.
