Cutting Action—Orbital or Straight (Fig. F)
This jig saw is equipped with four cutting actions, three
orbital and one straight. Orbital action has a more
aggressive blade motion and is designed for cutting in soft
materials like wood or plastic. Orbital action provides a faster
cut, but with a less smooth cut across the material. In orbital
action, the blade moves forward during the cutting stroke in
addition to the up and down motion.
nOTE: Metal or hardwoods should never be cut in
orbital action.
To adjust the cutting action, move the orbital action
lever

between the four cutting positions: 0, 1, 2, and 3.
Position 0 is straight cutting. Positions 1, 2, and 3 are orbital
cutting. The aggressiveness of the cut increases as the lever
is adjusted from one to three, with three being the most
aggressive cut.
