How to Use

To make a cut, make sure the timber is butt up against the guide and held firmly using your hand or a clamp. Hold the safety lever while pushing the ‘on’ button (these are right next to each other). Pull the blade forward as necessary, drop and move the saw back to home. The angle of the blade can be adjusted by loosening the lower handle, and pinching the handle below it to slide along the angle-labelled axis. The depth of the cut can be adjusted using the smaller knob near the ‘you must be inducted to use this tool’ sign.
