i. If the blade is inserted with the teeth facing downward, hold the tool as shown in Column A,
resting the edge of the shoe on the workpiece.
NOTICE: To make plunge cutting easier, use a heavy gauge blade and install the blade with
the teeth facing upward relative to the normal upright operating position of the saw, as show in
Column B.
j. With the blade just above the workpiece, depress the lock-off button to the unlock position
and squeeze the variable-speed trigger switch to start the tool; allow it to come to the
desired speed. Then, using the edge of the shoe as a pivot, lower the blade into the
workpiece.
k. As the blade starts cutting, raise the handle of the tool slowly, until the shoe rests firmly on
the workpiece.
l. After the blade has penetrated through the workpiece, continue sawing along the marked
cutting line.
m. Allow the saw to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from the workpiece.

Metal Cutting
WARNING
The saw can be used to cut metals, such as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods, aluminum, brass,
and copper. Be careful not to twist or bend the saw blade. Do not force the tool.
The use of cutting oil is recommended when cutting soft metals and steel. Cutting oil will keep
the blade cool, increase the cutting action, and prolong blade life.
WARNING
Never use gasoline as cutting lubricant, because normal sparking could ignite the
•
fumes.
Securely clamp the workpiece in position, and make the cut close to the clamping
•
point to minimize vibration.
When cutting conduit pipe or angle iron, clamp the work in a vise, if possible, and cut
•
close to the vise.
To cut thin sheet material, "sandwich" the material between pieces of hardboard
•
or plywood, and clamp the layers together to reduce vibration and tearing of the
material.
To reduce the risk of explosion, electric shock and property damage,
always check the work area for hidden gas pipes, electrical wires or
To avoid loss of control and serious injury, make sure that the blade
reaches the full desired speed before touching it to the workpiece.
Do not make plunge cuts in metal materials.
Never use the wood-cutting blade for cutting metals. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury.
To avoid possible serious injury:
