Variable Speed Trigger Switch (Fig. A, E)
Lock-Off Button and Trigger Switch
Your saw is equipped with a lock-off button
To lock the trigger switch, press the lock-off button on
the left. Always lock the trigger switch
storing the tool to eliminate unintentional starting.
To unlock the trigger switch, press the lock-off button
on the right. Pull the trigger switch to turn the motor ON.
Releasing the trigger switch turns the motor OFF.
WARNING: This tool has no provision to lock the
switch in the ON position, and should never be locked
ON by any other means.
The variable speed trigger switch will give you added
versatility. The further the trigger is depressed the higher
the speed of the saw.
CAUTION: Use of very slow speed is recommended
only for beginning a cut. Prolonged use at very slow
speed may damage your saw.

Cutting (Fig. A, B, D)
The blade
should extend past the shoe
10
thickness of the workpiece throughout the cut. Select the
blade best suitable for the material to be cut and use the
shortest blade suitable for the thickness of the material. Do
not use jigsaw blades with this tool.
nOTE: Before cutting any type of material, be sure it is firmly
anchored or clamped to prevent slipping.

Switch on saw motor and allow it to obtain maximum
speed before applying pressure.
•
Always hold saw as shown in Figure D. Whenever
possible, the shoe must be held firmly against the
material being cut. This will prevent the saw from
jumping or vibrating and will minimize blade breakage.

Flush Cutting (Fig. F)
The compact design of the recipro cating saw motor
housing and shoe permit close cutting to floors, corners and
other difficult areas.
1. To maximize flush cutting capabilities, insert the blade
shaft into the blade clamp with the teeth of the blade
facing up.
2. Turn the saw upside down so you are as close to the
work surface as possible.

Wood Cutting (Fig. D, G)
1. Before cutting any type of wood, be sure the workpiece
is firmly anchored or clamped to prevent slipping.
2. Place blade and shoe firmly against work to be cut.
3. Switch on saw motor before starting the cut.
4. Always hold saw as shown in Figure D while cutting.
Whenever possible, the shoe must be held firmly against
the material being cut. This will prevent the saw from
jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage.

Metal Cutting (Fig. H)
1. Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a coarse blade
for non-ferrous materials.
2. In thin gauge sheet metals it is best to clamp wood to
the underside of the sheet. This will ensure a clean cut
without excess vibration or tearing of metal.
3. Avoid forcing cutting blade as this reduces blade life
and causes costly blade breakage.
