CAUTION

Do not exert heavy pressure or put the blade in a bind. This can

cause the blade to bend or break.

The saw has a wire saw blade with two finger grip rings for using and has finger

screws to adjust the saw blade. When using the saw, keep the blade taut by pulling

on one arm as the other arm pulls the blade for cutting. Then reverse the arm action.

Use short strokes. If the blade breaks, unscrew the finger grip on the shortest piece

and insert the longest piece in the slot. Tighten the thumb screw and continue

sawing.
