Lock-Off Release Button and
On/Off Trigger Switch
When starting the tool, hold
it with both hands. The
torque from the motor can cause the tool to
twist.
The Lock-Off Release Button (Fig. 6, 6) is de-
signed to prevent accidental starts.
To turn tool "ON", press the Lock-Off Release
Button (6) with your thumb on either side of the
handle to disengage the locking mechanism and
then pull the On/Off Trigger Switch (7). To turn
tool "OFF", release the On/Off Trigger Switch
(7), which is spring loaded and will engage the
locking mechanism automatically.
Your saw should be running at full speed BE-
FORE starting the cut, and turned off only AF-
TER completing the cut. To increase switch life,
do not turn switch on and off while cutting.
Line Guide
The Cut Alignment Arrow and Notch (Fig. 7, 13)
will give an approximate line of cut. Make sam-
ple cuts in scrap material to verify actual line of
cut. This will be helpful because of the number
of different blade types and thicknesses avail-
able.
LED Light
Your tool is equipped with a powerful LED light
(Fig. 1, 17) for better visibility when cutting. The
light has the ability to turn on when only partial-
ly depressing the On/Off Trigger Switch (Fig. 6,
7). The light will stay on for 5 seconds after the
switch has been released. This allows the cut
to be more visible before the saw blade begins
to spin. Once the blade is correctly situated for
the cut, depress the On/Off Trigger Switch (7)
completely and begin the cut. The light will stay
on during the duration of the cut and 5 seconds
after the switch has been released.
