2. Place a scrap piece or floor tile (1) on the
floor about 1/2" (25 mm) from the door jamb
(2) (Fig. 7).
NOTE: Make sure the "good" side of the tile is
facing upward to provide a smooth surface for
the blade to follow.
3. Place the tool with the saw blade (3) lightly
touching the surface of the tile and the cutting
teeth NOT touching the surface to be cut.
4. Set the speed to the fastest speed and turn
the tool ON (Fig. 5 & 6).
5. When the tool reaches its maximum set
speed, carefully plunge the blade into the
door jamb while sliding the blade along the
floor tile.
NOTE: Hold the tool tightly and do not put too
much forward pressure on the saw blade when
cutting, as this will cause the tool to vibrate
excessively.
6. Continue lo make several plunge cuts until
the bottom of the door jamb and casing are
completely cut off and the loose pieces can be
easily removed.
Follow the same basic procedure for installing
carpet, using a thicker spacer that is the same
thickness of the carpet being installed.

STALL A HEATING VENT
The multi-tool can be used to cut a hole in
wood flooring for installing a heating vent.
1. Install the plunge cutting saw blade for
wood in the tool (Fig. 2).
NOTE: The blade should
be centred on the tool
housing and NOT installed
in the 90° position.
2. Place the floor vent on
the floor and use a soft
lead pencil to trace the
required rectangular hole
(1) on the flooring (Fig. 8).
3. Place the saw blade (2)
near the floor surface in
the middle of one of the
cutting lines.
4 . Set the tool speed at a medium speed and
turn the tool ON (Fig. 5 & 6).
NOTE: The tool and blade should be at a 45°
angle to the floor to allow the corner of the
blade to plunge cut into the flooring.

5. While holding the tool tightly, slowly plunge
the comer of the blade into the flooring until
it cuts through the flooring. Once the plunge
cut is complete, set the tool to its highest speed
and complete the cut to the corner of the rect-
angle.
6. Turn the saw OFF, remove it from the cut
and proceed to cut in the opposite direction
to complete the cut for the first side of the
rectangle.
7. Repeat steps #4, #5 & #6 cut the remaining
three sides of the rectangle.
8. When all cuts are complete, use a flat blade
screw driver to carefully pry the cut-out from
the floor.
NOTE: Do NOT use the saw blade to pry the
cut-out from the floor. You will break the
blade. If the cut-out is not easy lo pry from the
floor, check to make sure each line is cut com-
pletely into the corner of the rectangle.
