ASSEMBLY

WARNING To reduce the risk of injury,

always unplug tool before attaching or remov-

ing accessories or making adjustments. Use

only speciﬁ cally recommended accessories.

Others may be hazardous.

Selecting Blade

Always use sharp blades. Dull blades tend to

overload the tool and increase the chance of kick-

back (see “Preventing Kickback”). A combination

blade is included with your tool for general use in

wood. Select the right blade for your job. Read the

manufacturer’s instructions before use.

ting and mitering in hardwoods, softwoods,

smooth cross cut is not necessary.

Plywood-Veneer

Recommended for cutting plywood, compo-

sition materials and all types of wood where

a slightly smoother ﬁ nish is needed.

Finish & Trim

Especially designed for cross cutting and

mitering in materials where a very smooth

cut is necessary. Also cuts aluminum.
