BASIC RECIPROCATING SAW OPERATION
9.3 FLUSH CUTTING - FIG. 6
With the use of flexible bimetal saw blades,
projecting items (i.e. water pipes, etc.) can be sawn
off flush to the wall. Pay attention that the saw blade
always extends beyond the diameter of the pipe
being sawn. Danger of kickback.
Position the saw blade side wards against the wall
and apply some lateral pressure via the tool so that
the edge of the pivoting footplate 2 faces against the
wall. Switch the tool on and make the cut, applying
constant lateral pressure.
