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 designatio

BROKEN BROKEN BLADE If the blade breaks leaving nothing to BLADE grasp (to pull it from the clamp), it may be necessary to use another blade as a tool to aid in removing the broken piece (see Fig. 4). While holding the release collar in the open position, use the tip of another blade to “hook” the Fig. 4 broken piece and pull it from the clamp. (A thin, fine-toothed, metal- cutting

DUAL BLADE MOTION (Model 737 only) Model 737 has dual blade motion: you have a choice of straight reciprocating motion, as shown in Fig. 10, or orbital motion as shown in Fig. 11. Straight reciprocating motion should be used for all metal cutting operations, and for wood cutting applications where finish is more important than speed. Orbital motion is used for fast cutting of wood. To set saw for straight reciprocating motion: rotate knob (A) Fig. 10, clockwise so that the bar is vertical (arrow

OPERATIONS BEFORE YOU START TO WORK Select the blade best suited for the material to be cut (see ACCESSORIES). For greatest economy, use the shortest blade suitable for the thickness of the material to be cut. 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. If the work is large eno

MAINTENANCE KEEP TOOL CLEAN Periodically blow out all air passages with dry compressed air. All plastic parts should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth. NEVER use solvents to clean plastic parts. They could possibly dissolve or otherwise damage the material. Wear safety glasses while using compressed air. FAILURE TO START Should your tool fail to start, check to make sure the prongs on the cord plug are making good contact in the outlet. Also, check for blown fuses or open circuit breakers in the
