The detachable cord can be easily stored or replaced quickly
if damaged.
To detach:

Push cord lock button forward and hold.

Twist cord fully counterclockwise and pull away from the

saw.

To reattach:

Align notch in the saw cord receptacle with the ridge in

the cord head.

Insert cord head into cord receptacle and twist fully

clockwise.

NOTE: You will hear a click when the cord is securely

attached to the saw.

STARTING/STOPPING THE SAW

See Figure 11.
To start the saw: Depress the switch trigger.
Always let the blade reach full speed, then guide the saw
into the workpiece.

WARNING:

The blade coming in contact with the workpiece
before it reaches full speed could cause the saw to
“kickback” toward you, resulting in serious injury.

To stop the saw: Release the switch trigger.
After you release the switch trigger, allow the blade to
come to a complete stop. Do not remove the saw from the
workpiece while the blade is moving.
