○ Do not remove the front cover (refer to Fig. 1).
Hold fi rmly the front cover by hand to operate.
But, do not extend your hand or fi nger beyond the
fl ange (see Fig.12) of front cover to avoid an injury.
○ During use, press the base against the material
while cutting.
Vibration can damage the saw blade if the base
is not pressed fi rmly against the workpiece.
Furthermore, a tip of the saw blade can
sometimes contact the inner wall of the pipe,
damaging the saw blade.
○ Select a saw blade of the most appropriate
length. Ideally, the length protruding from the
base of the saw blade after subtracting the
stroke should be larger than the material (see
Fig. 12 and Fig. 13)

If you cut a large pipe, large block of wood, etc.,
that exceeds the cutting capacity of a blade;
there is a risk that the blade may contact with
the inner wall of the pipe, wood, etc., resulting in
damage. (Fig. 14, Fig. 15)

○ To maximize cutting effi ciency for the materials
you are using and working conditions, adjust
the speed of the saw blade and the switching to
orbital cutting.
○ Don't remove the tool from workpiece during a
cut while the saw blade is moving.
1. Trigger switch
○ This tool is equipped with a variable speed controlled
trigger switch. The tool can be turned "ON" or "OFF" by
squeezing or releasing the trigger. The blade plunger
stroke rate can be adjusted from the minimum to
maximum nameplate stroke rate by the pressure you
apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure to increase
the speed and release pressure to decrease speed.
○ When the trigger switch is turned on, an LED lamp
lights. This lamp goes out when the trigger switch is
released.
CAUTION
Do not look directly into the light from the LED
lamp. Continuous and direct exposure to the
light from the LED lamp can injure your eyes.
2. Cutting metallic materials
CAUTION
○ Press the base fi rmly against the workpiece.
○ Never apply any unreasonable force to the saw
blade when cutting. Doing so can easily break
the blade.
(1) Fasten a workpiece fi rmly before operation. (Fig.17)
