ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES 1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the operator. 2. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control. 3. Keep blades sharp. Sharp bla

EXTENSION CORD SELECTION If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found in this section. This table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts for 230 volts) at 150% of rated amperes. If an extension cord is to be used outdoors, it must be marked with the suffix W- A or W following the cord type desi

Be sure the material to be cut is rigid. Small work pieces should be securely clamped in a bench vise or with clamps to the work table. As the work progresses in scroll or curved cut-out pieces, the material may be readjusted to accommodate the movement of the saw. The saw cuts freely with only slight feed pressure. Forcing the saw will not make it cut faster. SAWING WOOD ® The TIGER SAW is used much the same as a hand saw in that it is moved toward the operator during the cutting operation
