[_ Keep hands away from cutting area and blade. Keep both
hands on the saw (rear handle and front boot grip). If both hands are holding
the saw, the blade cannot cut them,
iZ?x_CAUTION: Blades coast after saw is switched off+
1, Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces, (rear handle and front boot grip), when
performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its
own cord. Contact with a 'live" wire wilt make the exposed metal parts of the tool "live"
and shock the operator,
[ _ CAUTION: DO NOT saw into existing walls or other blind s where J....
electrical wiring may exist. If the situation is unavoidable, DISCONNECT ALL

9. ALWAYS inspect and remove all nails from lumber before sawing. Following
this rule wilt reduce the risk of counter'-force (a jumping or kickback action)
that could cause loss of control that can cause serious personal injury.
If this is unavoidable, such as when pedorrning demoJit on o_ renovation jobs,
MAKE 9URE to use bi-melal blades that are [flicker with 4 to 6 teeth p'-:r i_ch
and .£peciflcaliy des;g_!ao ia c[;t w.'_od with imbedded n_._its. EXERCISE EXTREME
CAUTION when performing this type of cutting operation.
_ WARNING: To reduce the risk of explosion, electric shock, property
damage and serious bodily injury, ALWAYS check the work area for hidden gas
pipes, electrical wires, water pipes, and nail and cleat imbedded 2 x 4's when
making blind or plunge cuts into walls during demolition or renovation work.
1G. Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration caused by the
operating action of this tool may cause permanent injury to fingers, hands and
arms. Use gloves to provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, end limit
daily time of use.
11. AVOID awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could
cause your hand to move into the blade.

ALWAYS choose a blade ien§th long enough to extend beyond the shoe and your
workplace, througho_ the cutting stroke (see page 18).
SAW BLADES
All saw blades need to be kept clean, sharp and properly set in order to cut efficiently.
Using a d_l( blade hlaces a heavy load on the saw and increases the d_r_ger of
counter force (a jumping or kickback action). Keep extra blades on hand. so sharp blades
are always available. Gum and wood pitch hardened on the blade slows the saw down.
_Jsegum and pitcl] remover, hot water or kerosene to remove them.
DO NOT use gasoline.
BLADE INSTALLATION AND REMOVAL
This saw is designed to use all f/2-in, universal shank blades.
_WARNING: Br. SUnE to wear protective work gloves while handling a ]
saw blade. The blade can injure unprotected hands, j
TO INSTALL BLADE (Figure 3)
1. Unplug the saw.
