Grip secrets: Hold your reciprocating saw with both hands, just like holding the secret of victory. Stand firm and guide it with the strength of your hands, let the saw become a dancer in your hands.

The art of starting and stopping: Imagine you are painting a masterpiece, gently touch the canvas (that is, your material), and then start your reciprocating saw with passion. When you’re done, close it gracefully and slowly pull the saw blade back from the material, as if leaving space for the next creation.

Stay safe and enjoy cutting: When dealing with hard materials or close to the edge, be careful of the saw blade kicking back. Make sure you hold the saw firmly and push the saw blade gently to avoid forceful cutting.
