Making a cut
WARNING: Use ONLY enough pressure to keep the saw cutting. NEVER force the saw; allow the
Blade (19) and the saw to do the work. Use of excessive pressure that causes bending or twisting of
the Blade may cause the Blade to break.
1. Hold the saw securely and rest the front edge of the Base Plate (13) on the edge of the workpiece
(Fig. VII (a))
2. Check that the Blade is not in contact with the workpiece, or any other object
3. Switch the tool ON and allow to reach full speed
4. Retract the Blade Guard (16) (Fig. VII (b)) just enough to allow the blade to engage with the
workpiece
5. Move the saw forward until the blade starts cutting, then release the Blade Guard
6. Push the saw smoothly forward, across the workpiece (Fig. VII (c))
7. Maintain a steady movement and keep the Base Plate pressed against the workpiece
NOTE: The front edge of the Base Plate features a Guide Notch (21). For normal cutting align the
notch marked '0˚' with the intended cutting line; for 45˚ bevel cutting align the notch marked '45˚'
with the cutting line.
8. Allow the Blade to pass through the material and release the ON/OFF Switch (12).
WARNING: If the cut does not reach the edge of the workpiece, release the ON/OFF Switch and
allow the Blade to stop moving before lifting out of the cut.
WARNING: Remove the Battery (10) and Blade when the tool is to be left unattended.
Making a plunge cut
WARNING: Plunge cutting is an advanced technique with higher risk. Only attempt plunge
cuts when you are competent and experienced with this technique. These instructions are given
as a guide only.
WARNING: ONLY attempt the plunge cutting procedure in soft materials such as wood,
plasterboard and similar materials. DO NOT attempt plunge cuts in metal or hard materials. ONLY
use blades specifically designed for plunge cutting. If in doubt, refer to the blade manufacturer's
instructions.
WARNING: Inspect both sides of the surface you are planning on plunge cutting into. Ensure
there are no foreign objects on the underneath, or objects that could be damaged. Be aware of
hidden pipework and cables when plunge cutting into drywalls, ceilings or floorboards. If pipes or
cables may be present, switch OFF all electrical circuit breakers and shut off water and gas supplies
at the relevant mains valves.
WARNING: Blindly plunge cutting into walls, floors and ceilings may lead to serious injury and
substantial property damage.
1. Mark out the cutting line
2. Adjust the Base Plate (13) to the required depth
3. Position the front of the Base Plate on the workpiece so that the Blade (19) is in-line with the
cutting line (Fig. VIII (a))
4. Ensure the Blade is clear of the workpiece
5. Hold the tool securely, ensuring you always have full control
6. Switch the tool ON and allow the Blade to reach full speed
7. Adjust the Blade Guard (16) to enable the Blade to contact the workpiece (Fig. VIII (b))
8. Pivot the saw on the tip of the Base Plate until the Blade contacts the workpiece (Fig. VIII (c))
9. Release the Blade Guard
10. Continue to pivot slowly, until the Blade has fully penetrated the thickness of the workpiece
11. Once the face of the Base Plate is flat against the workpiece, continue to make the cut
Using the laser
The Laser (3) indicates the position of the cut by projecting a bright red line onto the workpiece.
Keeping the laser light in-line with the cut mark will ensure an accurate cut.
1. Mark up the workpiece to be cut
2. Switch ON the Laser using the Laser ON/OFF Switch (5)
3. Align the Laser beam with the cut mark (Fig. VII (d))
4. Make the cut, keeping the Laser beam in-line with the cut mark
5. Turn the Laser OFF
