WARNING: Failure to remove the battery pack from the saw could result in the saw starting accidentally and cause serious personal injury. Loosen the set screw in the gear housing using the Allen key supplied with the saw. Small workpieces should be securely clamped in a vice or clamped to a work bench or table. Press the shoe onto the workpiece and then move the blade into the workpiece. Use of excessive pressure bending or twisting the blade may break the blade. Choose a convenient starting point inside the area to be cut out and position the tip of the blade over that point. Rest the front edge of the shoe on the workpiece and hold the saw firmly in that position. WARNING: Make sure that the blade does not come in contact with the workpiece until the motor reaches full speed, as this could cause loss of control resulting in serious injury. When the saw blade is at full cutting speed, slowly tilt the saw until the tip of blade starts cutting into the workpiece. When the blade has cut into the workpiece, continue tilting until the saw blade is perpendicular to the workpiece. Metals such as thin sheet steel, steel rods, aluminium, brass and copper may be cut with your saw.
