Assembly
Warning! Before attempting any of the following operations,
make sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged and
that the saw blade has stopped. Used saw blades may be
hot.
Fitting the saw blade (fig. B)
Hold the saw blade (10) as shown, with the teeth facing
forward.
Push and hold the blade clamp (9) down.
Insert the shank of the saw blade into the blade holder
(11) as far as it will go.
Release the blade clamp (9).
Saw blade storage (fig. C)
Saw blades (10) can be stored in the storage compartment
located on the side of the tool.
Open the cover (3) of the saw blade storage
compartment by holding the tab on the top of the cover
(3) and pulling it outward.
The blades are retained in the compartment by a
magnetic strip. To remove a blade, press down on one
end of the blade to raise the other end, and remove.
Close the cover (3) of the saw blade storage
compartment and make sure that it is latched closed.
Warning! Close the compartment door securely before
operating the saw.
Connecting a vacuum cleaner to the tool (fig. D)
An adaptor is required to connect a vacuum cleaner or dust
extractor to the tool. The dust extraction adaptor (6) can be
purchased from your local Black & Decker retailer.
Push the adaptor (6) into the dust extraction outlet (5).
Connect the vacuum cleaner hose to the adaptor (6).
Use
Adjusting the shoe plate for bevel cuts (fig. E and F)
Warning! Never use the tool when the shoe plate is loose or
removed.
The shoe plate (7) can be set to a left or right bevel angle of
up to 45°.
Pull the shoe plate locking lever (4) outwards to unlock
the shoe plate (7) from the 0 degree position (fig. F).
Pull the shoe plate (7) forward and set the required
bevel 15°, 30° and 45° indicated in the bevel angle
window.
Push the shoe plate locking lever (4) back towards the
saw to lock the shoe plate (7).
To reset the shoe plate (7) for straight cuts:
Pull the shoe plate locking lever (4) outwards to unlock
the shoe plate (7).
8
Set the shoe plate (7) to an angle of 0° and push the
shoe plate backwards.
Push the shoe plate locking lever (4) back towards the
saw to lock the shoe plate (7).
Switching on and off
To switch the tool on, press the variable speed on/off
switch (2).
To switch the tool off, release the variable speed on/off
switch (2).
For continuous operation, press the lock-on button (1)
and release the on/off switch (2).
To switch the tool off when in continuous operation,
press the on/off switch (2) and release it.
Sawing
Hold the tool firmly with both hands while cutting.
The shoe plate (7) should be held firmly against the material
being cut. This will help prevent the saw from jumping,
reduce vibration and minimise blade breakage.
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.
Operating the laser (fig. G - I) ('L' units only)
Installing the batteries (fig. G)
Detach the laser module (13) from the jigsaw by removing
the screw (12) and pulling the laser module forward. Insert
two new 1.5 Volt AAA alkaline batteries, making sure to
match the (+) and (-) terminals correctly. Re-attach the laser
module (13).
Adjusting the laser side-to-side (fig. H)
Note: The laser is intended as a cutting aid and does not
guarantee a precise cut.
Warning! Do not adjust the laser with the jigsaw plugged in.
Use the laser adjustment screw (14) to align the laser
line with the saw blade if needed.
The laser visibility (power) will be reduced if the jigsaw is
overheated. The laser may not be visible when the saw is
overloaded for a prolonged period of time. The laser visibility
will gradually return to normal when the tool cools down even
when the tool is unplugged.
Warning! Do not leave the overheated laser switched ON.
Make sure that the switch is in the OFF position and remove
the batteries to remove power from the laser.
Using the laser (fig. I and J)
The laser projects the line of cut (17) on to the surface of the
workpiece.
To switch the laser on, press the button (15).
