Selecting Blades
Selecting the correct blade type is important in order to obtain
the best performance of the saw. Select the blade based on
the application and on the material you wish to cut. Selecting
the right blade will give you a smoother, faster cut and prolong
the life of the blade.
Blades with fewer teeth are typically used for cutting wood,
while blades with more teeth are better for cutting metal or
plastic. We recommend 14 TPI for plastics and soft metals and
18 TPI for hard metals. Check the table below for details about
the included blades.
Starting and Stopping
1. Ensure the blade and the branch jaw clamp (if used)
are securely assembled. Insert the battery in the battery
compartment (Fig. 7).
2. To start the tool, rst press and hold the safety lock
button, then squeeze the On/O trigger (Fig. 8). When the
machine is running, release the safety lock button.
NOTE: The safety lock button, located on the handle
above the On/O trigger, reduces the possibility of
accidental starting.
3. To turn o the tool, release the On/O switch.
Using the Branch Jaw Clamp
The branch jaw clamp will grip the workpiece, providing cutting
of unsupported workpiece. When cutting wider branches
or timber, the branch jaw clamp can be removed to obtain
a deeper cutting capacity. In this case, use a clamp/vise to
secure the workpiece in place.
NOTE: When the branch jaw clamp is attached, the cutting
capacity with wood blade will be reduced to 1.65 inch (42 mm)
The cutting capacity with metal blade will not be aected by
the branch jaw clamp.
To use the branch jaw clamp, place the saw on the workpiece
as shown (Fig. 9). Switch on the saw and push it against
the workpiece. The branch jaw clamp will help to guide the
equipment in a straight line.
