2
required range of speed.
Turn the electronic speed control dial to the required level. The
required setting depends on the thickness and kind of material.
Use high speeds for sawing soft materials such as wood. Use
low speeds for sawing metal.

WARNING: After using the tool for an extended period
on low speed settings, run it for approx. 3 minutes on
maximum no-load speed.
Cutting Wood
1. Clamp the workpiece securely and remove all nails and
metal objects.
2. Holding the tool with both hands, work with the saw shoe
pressed against the workpiece.
Plunge Cutting in Wood (Fig. E)
1. Rest the saw shoe on the workpiece in such a position that
the blade forms an appropriate angle for the plunge cut.
2. Switch the tool on and slowly feed in the blade. Make sure
that the saw shoe remains in contact with the workpiece at
all times.
Pocket Cuts
1. Measure and mark the required pocket cut.
2. Using a narrow saw blade rest the bottom of the saw shoe
on the workpiece and make sure that the blade is positioned
on the cutting line. If necessary, e.g. in confined spaces, use
the outer edge of the saw shoe as your guideline.
3. Switch on the tool and feed the blade into the material at
full speed, holding the tool firmly against the workpiece.

Cutting Metal

When cutting thin metal always stabilize the workpiece with
wood on both sides. This guarantees clean cuts and prevents
damaging of the material.
For long, straight cuts draw a line on the workpiece.
Apply a thin film of lubricant along the cutting line, switch on
the tool and follow the cutting line.
Cutting Plastics
Always work at reduced speed. Carry out a test cut to check
whether the material is sensitive to heat.
