3) Operation
CAUTION: During operation the AS200X may
cause hand-arm vibration, which can result in fatigue
or discomfort after long periods of continuous use.
Vibration will increase with the hardness of material.
Wearing gloves will also reduce hand-arm vibration.
ON
T
Do not operate the tool if discomfort is experienced
and ensure that sufficient rest periods are taken during
cutting. For further information, contact the
manufacturer.
Before attempting to operate the tool, please ensure
that the safety section of this manual has been
consulted.
Apply protective hearing, breathing, eyes and body
protection as appropriate.
With the blades secured and the tool switch OFF, plug
the tool into the power socket.
CAUTION: Do
not block the cooling
intake vents or ingest
dust or debris at the
rear of the motor as
this may cause the
motor to overheat. If
working in dusty
conditions, it is
recommended that
the vents be regularly
cleaned with an air
blast. (See Fig. 1).
Hold the tool by both the top handle and the motor
housing.
To start the cut, hold the tool firmly in your hands and
turn on the power then apply the middle of the blade
cutting edge to the work, keeping in mind that the
direction of cut is towards the rear of the blades.
While cutting, move the tool and blade in a slow
"sawing" motion, which improves the cut rate, reduces
concentrated heat build-up and evens the wear on the
blades. (See Fig.2 & 3)

HAMMERING!
DIRECTION OF CUT
CAUTION: Do not allow the forward or rear end of the
blades to hammer onto hard surfaces (shown in Figure
4, 5 & 7) as this will damage the blades and tool. If
unintentional hammering occurs, stop the tool or
withdraw it from the cut immediately.
When using any of the blade types, avoid hammering of
the ends of the blades into the ends of the cut by using a
slow rocking and sweeping motion. For best
performance try to ensure that the teeth are the only part
of the blade in contact with the workpiece.
