How to use

To operate the saw, ensure a compatible 20 V battery is securely attached to the base. Select the appropriate blade for your material and insert it into the tool-free clamp until it locks firmly. Adjust the speed setting according to the density of the material you are cutting. Position the shoe of the saw firmly against the workpiece before activating the trigger to maintain stability and control throughout the cut.

What to consider before purchase

• Check if you already own compatible 20 V batteries from the same brand ecosystem
• Ensure you have the correct blades for the specific materials you intend to cut
• Consider the weight and balance if you plan to use the tool overhead

Usage recommendations

Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including safety glasses and gloves, when operating the saw. Ensure the workpiece is properly clamped or secured before starting any cut to prevent movement and ensure safety.
