OPERATING PROCEDURES
INSTALLING A SAW BLADE
 Your jigsaw is designed to accept standard "Universal" style jigsaw blades.
Note the shape of the upper end of the blades supplied with your tool.
 Check to ensure that any blades you use on this machine are designed for the
task. Specific jigsaw blades are made to cut different materials of differing
thicknesses and to provide different rates of cut and different qualities of fin-
ish. Large teeth will provide a faster, coarser cut than the higher quality finish
you get from fine-toothed blades. Blades that are shorter in section, from the
front of the teeth to the back edge will allow turns of a smaller radius than long
(front-to-back) blades. Blades that are longer in length will obviously allow the
cutting of thicker materials.
1. IMPORTANT: Unplug the saw.
2. Select a saw blade appropriate to the material to be cut.
3. Use the hex key provided to loosen the two saw blade clamp screws, accessing
them through the slots in the clear blade guard.
4. Insert the saw blade, teeth forward, into the blade clamp, and slide it in as
deeply as it will go.
5. Be sure the blade is well seated firmly in the slot in the guide roller
6. Retighten the screws in the saw blade clamp.
7. Before you plug in the power cord, always pull on the blade sharply to ensure it
is firmly held in the blade clamp. Failure to do so may result in injury.
ORBITAL CUTTING
The orbital cutting action can be adjusted with the selector knob on the left side of
the tool near the blade. The settings are:
0: no orbital action. The blade goes up and down only.
I: mild orbital action. The blade describes a slight arc as it moves up, pulling the
blade backward out of the material slightly on the upstroke. This allows you to
move the tool forward more during that upstroke and at the same time unload-
ing sawdust, increasing cooling on the blade, lengthening blade life.
II: moderate orbital action. The blade describes a larger arc as it moves up and
down. This allows you to move the tool forward more aggressively during that
upstroke while cooling the blade, lengthening blade life.
III: maximum orbital action. The blade describes a yet larger arc as it moves up
and down. This allows the most forward movement (faster cutting) during the
upstroke while prolonging the blade life.
Recommended settings:
Sheet metal: 0
Steel: 0-I
Plywood: 0-I
Aluminum: I – II
Plastics: I – III
Wood: I - III

DUST EXTRACTION

1. Insert the dust tube into the dust extraction port at the rear of the tool.
2. Twist the tube clockwise to secure it.
3. Attach a 1-1/4" I.D. vacuum cleaner hose.
4. Turn on the vacuum.
5. Allow the vacuum to collect the sawdust generated as you cut.
RUNNING THE ITC 011353
1. Plug in the tool.
2. Hold the tool firmly. Check to make sure that saw blade travel is not obstruct-
ed. Squeeze the trigger switch. The speed is adjustable by rotating the speed
