Cutting (Fig. H–J)
WARNING: Always use eye protection. All users
and bystanders must wear eye protection that
conforms to ANSI Z87.1.
WARNING: Exercise extra caution when cutting
towards operator. Always hold saw firmly with both
hands while cutting.
Before cutting any type of material, be sure it is firmly
anchored or clamped to prevent slipping. Place blade lightly
against work to be cut, switch on saw motor and allow it to
obtain maximum speed before applying pressure. Whenever
possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly against the
material being cut (Fig. H). This will prevent the saw from
jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage. Any
cuts which put pressure on the blade such as angle or
scroll cuts increase potential for vibration, kickback, and
blade breakage.
WARNING: Use extra caution when cutting overhead
and pay particular attention to overhead wires which
may be hidden from view. Anticipate the path of
falling branches and debris ahead of time.
WARNING: Inspect work site for hidden gas pipes,
water pipes, or electrical wires before making blind or
plunge cuts. Failure to do so may result in explosion,
property damage, electric shock, and/or serious
personal injury.

Pocket/Plunge Cutting – Wood Only
(Fig. I)
The initial step in pocket cutting is to measure the surface
area to be cut and mark clearly with a pencil, chalk or scriber.
Use the appropriate blade for the application. The blade
should be longer than 3-1/2" (89 mm) and should extend
past the shoe and the thickness of the workpiece during the
cut. Insert blade in blade clamp.
Next, tip the saw backward until the back edge of the shoe
is resting on the work surface and the blade clears the work
surface (position 1, Fig. I). Now switch motor on, and allow
saw to come up to speed. Grip saw firmly with both hands
and begin a slow, deliberate upward swing with the handle
of the saw, keeping the bottom of the shoe firmly in contact
with the workpiece (position 2, Fig. I). Blade will begin
to feed into material. Always be sure blade is completely
through material before continuing with pocket cut.
nOTE: In areas where blade visibility is limited, use the edge
of the saw shoe as a guide. Lines for any given cut should be
extended beyond edge of cut to be made.
