products go to www.flex-tools.com.
WARNING!
Before performing any work on the power
tool, remove the battery pack from the tool.
Before switching on the power tool
Remove the battery pack from the tool and check
that there are no missing or damaged parts.
To attach/detach battery pack (See
figure B)
CAUTION!
Use of batteries not suitable for the machine
can lead to malfunctions of or cause damage
to the power tool.
To attach the battery pack:
Align the raised rib on the battery pack with
the grooves on the bottom of the tool, and
then attach the battery pack to the tool.
Make sure that the latch on the battery pack
snaps into place and the battery pack is secured
to the tool before beginning operation.
To detach the battery pack:
Depress the battery release button of the
battery pack, and pull the battery pack out
and remove it from the tool.
Adjusting the cutting depth (See
figure C)
a. Remove the battery first, and then ensure
that the saw is facing away from you.
b. Loosen the depth locking lever.
c. Hold the base plate flat against the edge
of the workpiece and lift the body of the
saw until the blade is at the right depth.
Use the depth scale to determine the
cutting depth.
d. Tighten the depth locking lever.
CAUTION!
Always use the correct blade depth setting.
The correct blade depth setting for all cuts
should not be more than 6.35mm below the
material being cut. Allowing more depth will
increase the chance of kickback and result in
a rough cut.
Dust removal device (See figure D)
The dust discharging interface configured
by the machine can be adjusted from left to
right angle, and the suitable dust discharging
direction can be selected according to the
working condition
Installing the edge guide
(See figure E)
The edge guide allows you to make accurate
parallel cuts when trimming a workpiece.
a. Remove the battery.
b. Slide the edge guide into the edge-
guide slots at the front of the saw base.
c. Adjust the edge guide to the desired
length of cut. Tighten the edge-guide
locking knob.
d. Clamp and support the workpiece
securely before making your cut.
e. Place the edge guide firmly against the
edge of the workpiece. Doing this will
give you a true cut without pinching the
blade.
f. Be sure that the guiding edge of the
workpiece is straight so you can get a
straight cut.
g. Always let the blade reach full speed,
and then carefully guide the saw into the
workpiece.
Switching on and off (See figure F)
The tool is equipped with a lock-off button to
avoid unintentional starting.
To switch on, depress the lock-off button and
squeeze the trigger switch.
To switch off, release the trigger switch.
CAUTION!
Allow the blade to come to a complete
standstill before setting the saw down.
