OPERATION
CAUTION:
Be sure to move the tool forward
in a straight line gently. Forcing or twisting the tool
will result in overheating the motor and dangerous
kickback, possibly causing severe injury.
CAUTION:
Never approach any part of your
body under the tool base when section cutting,
especially at starting. Doing so may cause seri-
ous personal injuries. The blade is exposed under
the tool base.
NOTE: When the battery cartridge temperature is
low, the tool may not work to its full capacity. At this
time, for example, use the tool for a light-duty cut for
a while until the battery cartridge warms up as high
as room temperature. Then, the tool can work to its
full capacity.
Section cutting (ordinary sawing)

Hold the tool firmly. The tool is provided with both a front
grip and rear handle. Use both to best grasp the tool.
If both hands are holding saw, they cannot be cut by
the circular saw blade. Set the base on the workpiece
to be cut without the circular saw blade making any
contact. Then push in the lock-off button and pull the
switch trigger. Wait until the circular saw blade attains
full speed. Now press down the saw head slowly to the
preset depth of cut and simply move the tool forward
over the workpiece surface, keeping it flat and advanc-
ing smoothly until the sawing is completed.
To get clean cuts, keep your sawing line straight and
your speed of advance uniform. If the cut fails to prop-
erly follow your intended cut line, do not attempt to turn
or force the tool back to the cut line. Doing so may bind
the circular saw blade and lead to dangerous kickback
and possible serious injury. Release the switch, wait
for the circular saw blade to stop and then withdraw
the tool. Realign the tool on new cut line, and start
cut again. Attempt to avoid positioning which exposes
operator to chips and wood dust being ejected from the
saw. Use eye protection to help avoid injury.
Guide rail
Optional accessory
Place the tool on the rear end of guide rail. Turn two
adjusting screws on the tool base so that the tool slides
smoothly without a clatter. Hold both the front grip and
rear handle of the tool firmly. Turn on the tool, press
down the tool to the preset cutting depth and cut the
splinterguard along the full length with a stroke. Now
the edge of the splinterguard corresponds to the cutting
edge.
► 1. Adjusting screws
When bevel cutting with the guide rail, use the slide
lever to prevent the tool from falling over.
Move the slide lever on the tool base in the direction
of arrow so that it engages the undercut groove in the
guide rail.
