BOOST Mode
1. The BOOST Button is used to activate the high-power
cutting mode.
Notes:
1. Keep the Blade sharp for cleaner, faster cuts and
reduced motor load during operation.
2. When cutting materials with adhesive backing, clean the
Blade regularly. Adhesive residue can accumulate,
reducing cutting quality and overloading the motor.
3. When cutting curves, avoid tilting the tool; keep the
Blade perpendicular to the workpiece.
4. Do not apply excessive forward pressure when pushing
the tool. With practice, you will learn how to achieve
smoother and easier cuts.
5. In low-battery protection mode (battery level ≤ 5%),
the device cannot operate in normal mode.

Sharpening Mode
1. Sharpening Mode is used to sharpen the Blade to
maintain its cutting efficiency. Activate this mode by
turning the Sharpen Switch in the direction of the arrow.
2. In normal mode, turn and hold the Sharpen Switch to
enter Sharpening Mode. The Display Screen will show the
sharpening mode with a 10-second countdown.
3. Operate the device to allow the sharpening stone to
grind the Blade until the countdown ends. Release the
Sharpen Switch to complete the sharpening process.
2. When encountering materials that are too hard or thick,
or if the blade gets stuck during cutting, press the BOOST
Button to increase cutting power for the next 10 seconds.
The Display Screen will show a 10-second countdown.
3. After 10 seconds, the device will return to normal
cutting mode, and the display will revert to showing the
battery percentage and icon.
4. During normal operation, press and hold the BOOST
Button to activate BOOST Mode.
5. If the device enters a stall state in normal mode while
the ON/OFF Switch is still pressed, simultaneously press
and hold the BOOST Button to activate BOOST Mode.
Note:
BOOST Mode cannot be activated in low-battery
protection state (battery level ≤ 5%).

Notes:
1. Sharpening Mode lasts for 10 seconds by default. If the
user does not release the knob after the countdown, the
display will show "00" with the "SHARPEN" indicator
flashing.
2. BOOST Mode and Sharpening Mode are mutually
exclusive. If the Sharpen Switch is turned during BOOST
Mode, the device will exit BOOST Mode and switch to
normal speed for sharpening.
3. Turning the Sharpen Switch while the device is powered
off will not activate Sharpening Mode.

Information:
The declared vibration total value(s) and the declared noise
emission value(s) have been measured in accordance with a
standard test method and may be used for comparing one
tool with another; The declared vibration total value(s) and
the declared noise emission value(s) may also be used in a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
The vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the
power tool can differ from the declared values depending on
the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of
workpiece is processed; and It is necessary to identify safety
measures to protect the operator that are based on an
estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use
(taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the
times when the tool is switched off and when it is running
idle in addition to the trigger time).
