Sawing (Fig. A, C, D, F)
NOTICE: Do not use the saw for cutting curves or pockets.
Make sure the bar end protrudes from the workpiece.
For long, straight cuts first draw a line on the workpiece and
follow the line.
Make downward cuts only. Avoid cutting earth as this will blunt
the saw blades very quickly.
When using a saw horse always cut on the outside of the saw
horse arms.
1. Clamp the workpiece on one side only to prevent the bar
from jamming in the workpiece. Should this happen, ease
open the cut with wedges to relieve the strain on the blade.
Do not try to wrench the saw free.

care and regular cleaning.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal
injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power
source before making any adjustments or removing/
installing attachments or accessories. Be sure the
trigger switch is in the OFF position. An accidental start‑up
can cause injury.
Lubrication
• Lubricate the saw blades (if fitted with non‑painted blades),
the bar and the saw blade guide slot upon cleaning. Do not
lubricate painted blades.
• If the tool will not be used for a long period of time, coat the
non‑painted saw blades and fill the oil holes with a little oil
(e.g., machine oil) Do not oil painted blades.
Let the tool run for a few seconds to enable the oil to reach all
parts. This protects the tool from corrosion.
Cleaning

WARNING: Blow dirt and dust out of the main housing
with dry air as often as dirt is seen collecting in and around
the air vents. Wear approved eye protection and approved
4 and
dust mask when performing this procedure.

WARNING: Never use solvents or other harsh chemicals
for cleaning the non‑metallic parts of the tool. These
