OPERATION LOCK-ON BUTTON See Figure 4. The saw is equipped with a lock-on feature which is convenient when continuous cutting for extended periods of time is required. To lock-on: Depress the switch trigger. Push in and hold the lock-on button located on the side of the handle. Release switch trigger. Release lock-on button. To release: Depress the switch trigger to release. If you have the lock-on feature engaged during use and the saw becomes disconnected from power supply, disengage the lock-on feature immediately. LOCK-ON BUTTON switch trigger Fig. 4 WARNING: Before connecting the saw to power supply source, always check to be sure it is not in lock-on position (depress and release switch trigger). Failure to do so could result in accidental starting of the saw resulting in possible serious injury. Also, do not lock the trigger on jobs where the saw may need to be stopped suddenly. SPLINTER-FREE CUTTING See Figure 5. The anti-splintering insert is especially useful when cutting plywood. It should only be used when making straight cuts or circle cuts. It is not for bevel cutting or plunge cutting. NOTE: The non-orbital setting also helps reduce splintering when cutting plywood. To attach and remove the anti-splintering insert: Unplug the saw. Set the cutting angle at 0°. To attach, slide the insert back onto the tabs on the front of the base. Make sure it snaps securely into place. To remove, grasp the anti-splintering insert and pull straight out. anti-splintering insert VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL SELECTOR Variable SpEed Control selector See Figure 6.
