manual abstract
Failure to do so could result in possible serious personal injury. BLADE WRENCH HOLDER A blade wrench (5 mm hex key) is packed with your saw. A convenient feature on your saw is the wrench holder. This is a slot located on the bottom portion of the saw handle. It is convenient for storing the wrench when it is not being used. BLADE SELECTION Your saw is equipped with a "lock-off" button which reduces the possibility of accidental starting. The lock-off button is located on the handle above the switch trigger. You must depress the lock-off button in order to pull the switch trigger. The lock resets each time the trigger is released. Note: You can depress the lock-off button from either the left or right side. SWITCH To turn your saw ON, depress the lock-off button and pull switch trigger. Release switch trigger to turn your saw OFF. VARIABLE SPEED This tool has a variable speed switch that delivers higher speed with increased trigger pressure. Speed is controlled by the amount of switch trigger depression. APPLICATIONS (Use only for the purposes listed below) ¦ Cutting all types of wood products (lumber, plywood, paneling, composition board, and hard wood). ¦ Cutting masonite and plastic. ¦ Cutting drywall. ¦ Cutting metals such as sheet steel, pipe, steel rods, aluminum, brass, and copper. WARNING: Do not allow familiarity with your saw to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury. To obtain the best performance from your saw it is important to select a specific blade for the particular application and type of material you wish to cut. By doing this you will get a smoother faster cut and prolong blade life. Replacement blades for this saw are available from your nearest Ryobi dealer. WARNING: The operation of any power tool can result in foreign objects being thrown into your eyes, which can result in severe eye damage. Before beginning power tool operation, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields and a full face shield when needed. We recommend Wide Vision Safety Mask for use over eyeglasses or standard safety glasses with side shields. Always use eye protection which is marked to comply with ANSI Z87.1.
