● Push the shoe beveling lever back (6) towards the saw to
lock the shoe plate (5).
Cutting action (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.
Warning! Metal or hardwoods should never be cut in
orbital action.
● Move the cutting action lever (7) 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.
Sawing
● Always hold the tool with both hands.
● Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting
the cut.
● Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while performing
the cut.
● If possible, work with the shoe plate (5) pressed against
the workpiece. This will improve tool control and
reduce tool vibration, as well as prevent the blade from
being damaged.
Hints for optimum use:
General
● Use a high speed for wood, a medium speed for
aluminium and PVC and a low speed for metals other
than aluminium.
Sawing laminates
As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may
occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.
● Use a fine-tooth saw blade.
● Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
● To minimise splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood or
hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw through
this sandwich.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
sawing wood.
(original instructions)
● Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal. Use a fine-
tooth saw blade for ferrous metals and a coarser saw
blade for non-ferrous metals.
● When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap
wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut
through this sandwich.
● Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.
