HOW TO HOLD SAW MODEL 741 Hold saw as shown in Fig. 6. The

gear housing, intermediate plate, blade and pivoting guide shoe may be

made live if the blade cuts into live wiring within a wall.

TO PREVENT ACCIDENTAL ELECTRICAL SHOCK THE SAW

MUST BE HELD AS SHOWN IN FIG. 6, AND MUST HAVE THE RUBBER

FRONT HOUSING COVER PROPERLY INSTALLED AND NOT DAMAGED.

TO START AND STOP SAW

1. Make sure power circuit voltage is the same as shown on the

specification plate on the saw. Connect saw to power circuit.

2. Hold saw firmly. Squeeze trigger switch (A) Fig. 7, to start motor.

Release trigger to stop motor.

VARIABLE SPEED

The saw is equipped with a variable speed control (0 to 2600 SPM). As the

switch trigger is squeezed, the speed of the saw blade increases.

The lower speeds are recommended for most metal cutting, while the higher

speeds are recommended for wood. A few practice cuts at various speeds

(on scrap material), will aid you in choosing the best speed for obtaining the

desired results on your application.

PIVOTING GUIDE SHOE FEATURES
