Do not touch the blade or the workpiece
•
immediately
extremely hot and could burn your skin.
Always secure the blade firmly. Insufficient
•
tightening of the blade may cause blade breakage
or serious personal injury.
Use only B type blades. Using blades other than B
•
type blades causes insufficient tightening of the
blade, resulting in a serious personal injury.
To install the blade, loosen the bolt counterclockwise on
the blade holder with the hex wrench.
With the blade teeth facing forward, insert the blade into
the blade holder as far as it will go. Make sure that the
back edge of the blade fits into the roller. Then tighten
the bolt clockwise to secure the blade.

To remove the blade, follow the installation procedure in
reverse.
NOTE:
Occasionally lubricate the roller.

Hex wrench storage
Fig.6
When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the
figure to keep it from being lost.
Adjusting roller (For models 4326/4327)
Fig.7
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench. Move the retainer so that the roller contacts the
blade lightly. Then tighten the bolt to secure the base
and the retainer.
NOTE:
Occasionally lubricate the roller.

Dust cover

CAUTION:
Always wear safety goggles even when operating
•
the tool with the dust cover lowered.
Lower the dust cover to prevent chips from flying.
However, when making bevel cuts, raise it all the way.

OPERATION

CAUTION:
Always hold the base flush with the workpiece.
•
Failure to do so may cause blade breakage,
resulting in a serious injury.
Advance the tool very slowly when cutting curves
•
or scrolling. Forcing the tool may cause a slanted
cutting surface and blade breakage.
Turn the tool on without the blade making any contact
and wait until the blade attains full speed. Then rest the
base flat on the workpiece and gently move the tool

Bevel cutting

Fig.10
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and
•
unplugged before tilting the base.
Raise the dust cover all the way before making
•
bevel cuts.
With the base tilted, you can make bevel cuts at any
angle between 0° and 45° (left or right).
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench. Move the base so that the bolt is positioned in
the center of the cross-shaped slot in the base.
Fig.11
Tilt the base until the desired bevel angle is obtained.
The edge of the motor housing indicates the bevel angle
by graduations. Then tighten the bolt to secure the base.

Front flush cuts
Fig.13
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench and slide the base all the way back. Then
tighten the bolt to secure the base.
Cutouts
Cutouts can be made with either of two methods A or B.
A) Boring a starting hole
Fig.14
For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an
edge, pre-drill a starting hole 12 mm or more in
diameter. Insert the blade into this hole to start
your cut.
B) Plunge cutting
Fig.15
You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-
in cut if you carefully do as follows.
(1) Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base
with the blade point positioned just above the
workpiece surface.
(2) Apply pressure to the tool so that the front
edge of the base will not move when you
switch on the tool and gently lower the back
end of the tool slowly.
(3) As the blade pierces the workpiece, slowly
lower the base of the tool down onto the
workpiece surface.
(4) Complete the cut in the normal manner.

Finishing edges

To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the
blade lightly along the cut edges.
