NOISE INFORMATION

VIBRATION INFORMATION

Cutting boards

| Vibration emission value ah,B=10.60m/s2
Uncertainty K=1.5m/s²

Cutting wooden beams

| Vibration emission value ah,WB=11.76m/s2
Uncertainty K=1.5m/s²

The declared vibration total value and the declared noise emission value have been measured in accordance with a standard test method and may be used for comparing one tool with another. The declared vibration total value and the declared noise emission value may also be used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

WARNING! The vibration and noise emissions during actual use of the power tool can differ from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled. The tool being in good condition and well maintained. The use of the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration and noise accessories are used. And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions. This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.
WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Helping to minimise your vibration and noise exposure risk. Always use sharp chisels, drills and blades. Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate). If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration and noise accessories. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days.

HOW TO GRASP YOUR WORX HANDY SAW
Grasp your Worx Handy saw as shown in Fig E, for best control of the tool and comfortable use as a reciprocating saw.

GENERAL CUTTING (See Fig. F1, F2) NOTE:

1. Always use a blade suited to the material and material thickness to be cut. The quality of cut will improve as the number of blade teeth increase.
2. Always ensure the workpiece is firmly held or clamped to prevent movement. Support large panels close to the cut line. Any movement of the material may affect the quality of the cut.
3. The blade cuts on the upward stroke and may chip the uppermost surface or edges of your work piece when cutting, ensure your uppermost surface is a non-visible surface when your work is finished.

OPERATION:

1. Mark the line of cut, clearly before your cutting.
2. Do not force the tool. Place the steel base (9) firmly on the workpiece while cutting. Use only enough steady pressure on the blade to keep the saw cutting.
3. Reduce the pressure as the blade comes to the end of the cut.
4. Allow the saw to come to a complete stop when before removing the blade from the workpiece.

TREE TRIMMING
Use wood blade when cutting tree branches. Hold steel base firmly against tree brance. Cut close to the branch of the tree to decrease movement of the branch being cut.

METAL CUTTING
Use a finer tooth blade for ferrous metals and a coarse tooth blade for non- ferrous metals.  When cutting thin sheet metals always clampsteel on both sides of the sheet to reduce vibration or tearing of the sheet metal. Do not force the cutting blade when cutting thin metal or sheet steel as they are harder materials and will take longer to cut. Excessive blade force may reduce the life of the blade or damage the motor. To reduce heat during metal cutting, add a little lubricant along the cutting line.

MAINTENANCE

Remove the battery pack from the tool before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance. Your tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in your tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust.
