6.3 Electric speed selector (Fig. 6/Item 1)
You can pre-select the required speed with the speed
selector. Turn the speed selector in PLUS director to
increase the speed and turn the speed selector in
MINUS direction to reduce the speed. The suitable
stroke speed is dependent on the relevant material
and working conditions.
General rules for cutting speeds for metal cutting
work must be complied with here as well.
You can generally use a higher speed with fine saw
blades whilst coarser saw blades require lower
speeds.
low stroke speed (for steel)
medium stroke speed (for steel, soft metal,
plastic)
high stroke speed (for softwood, hardwood, soft
metal, plastic)
6.4 Making cuts
Ensure that the ON/OFF switch (3) is not
depressed. Only then should you connect the
mains plug to a suitable socket.
Do not switch on the jigsaw until you have fitted a
saw blade.
Use only saw blades that are in perfect condition.
Replace blunt, bent or cracked saw blades
immediately.
Place the saw foot flat on the workpiece you wish
to saw. Switch on the jigsaw.
Allow the saw blade to accelerate until it reaches
full speed. Then slowly move the saw blade along
the cutting line. Only exert gentle pressure on the
saw blade as you do so.
When cutting metal, apply a suitable coolant
along the line you wish to cut.
