cause a kickback.
Ensure that the teeth on the saw blade 7point
downwards before you mount it in the device.
DANGER OF INJURY! Keep your hands
away from the area of the saw blade.
Before sawing, check the workpiece for foreign
bodies such as nails etc. and remove them. In-
jury and/or damage to property may result from
the saw blade striking nails etc. embedded in
the workpiece.

Q
Advice on use
Push the workpiece slowly and with minimum
pressure on to the saw blade.
Reduce the rate of advance when you are
cutting thicker material.
Hold the workpiece firmly on the table with
both hands and push it slowly towards the saw
blade. Otherwise the saw blade may twist or
break.
Avoid making any sharp changes in direction
during sawing to prevent the saw blade from
twisting or tearing.
Before starting the saw cut, drill a hole at a
corner or internal cut-out in the workpiece and
start sawing from the hole.
Use the correct saw blade. The choice of saw
blade depends on the thickness and type of
material and the intended cut.
Select a saw blade with fine teeth to saw thin,
hard materials.
Use a narrow saw blade to saw small radius c
uts.
