Preparation For Work; Using The Tool - YATO YT-82272 Bedienungsanleitung

GB
If the tool is equipped with a dust extractor, it must be installed as shown in the picture (III). Make sure it will not be disconnected
accidentally during work. The outlet of the connection must be connected to the dust extraction system, provided with the jigsaw.

PREPARATION FOR WORK

Attention! All activities related to installation and replacement of the blade, adjustments and maintenance of the electric
tool must be realised when the tool is not powered, so before such tasks: Remove the plug of the cord of the glaze cutter
from the mains socket!
Installation and replacement of the blade
Make sure the installed circular blade is not damaged or broken, and the cutting teeth are not broken, etc. In case any damage is
detected, it is required to replace the blade with a new one.
The jigsaw is supplied along with two blades. The blade for wood and wood derivatives has wider spaced teeth, and the blade for
metal and plastics has smaller teeth. Select an adequate blade for the planned work. The blade must be installed with the teeth
directed forward.
Placing the blade in the slot of the spindle, make sure its edge is positioned against the recess in the roll.
Attention! Installation of the blade must be realised wearing protective gloves, which will reduce the risk of injuries.
Lift the protection of the blade.
Turn the clamp of the spindle and insert the fixture of the blade into the slot of the spindle (IV). Turn the clamp in the opposite
direction and make sure the blade has been installed properly: the clamp has returned to the original position and the blade cannot
be removed from the spindle.
Lower the protection of the blade.
The blade is removed in a reverse order.
Adjustments of the oscillation of the blade (V)
The jigsaw permits gradual adjustments of the oscillation of the blade. Adjustments are realised with a lever. The lower the setting,
the lower oscillation of the blade. In case of adjustment „0", the oscillation of the blade is off.
The oscillation of the blade facilitates cutting, and its grade must be selected experimentally, for example cutting waste material.
However, the operator should follow the indications below:
- in order to obtain a smooth kerf, it is recommended to set the lowest possible oscillation or even turn it off,
- cutting thin materials (e.g. sheet metal plate), the oscillation should be turned off,
- cutting hard materials (e.g. steel), low oscillation should be selected,
- cutting soft materials, the maximum oscillation should be selected.
Adjustments of the velocity of the blade (VI)
The jigsaw is equipped with a potentiometer, which permits adjustments of the velocity of the blade. Turning the ring of the poten-
tiometer, it is possible to select an adequate velocity of the blade for the given task. The lower the setting, the lower the velocity
of the blade.
The velocity must be selected experimentally, for example cutting waste material. Lower velocity should be used while cutting
plastics or aluminium. The velocity must be reduced also in case the blade is seized during cutting.
Adjustments of the cutting angle (VII)
The jig saw permits adjustments of the transversal cutting angle within the range between 0 and 45 grades, while inclination may
be towards the left and towards the right. If necessary, before you proceed to realise adjustments, the dust exhaust connection
must be removed. Loosen the bolts fixing the base of the jigsaw, but do not remove them completely. Then move the base back
or forward and incline it, setting the required cutting angle. The base may have catches or a scale which facilitate adjustments of
the most common cutting angles. Once the adjustments have been completed, tighten the bolts of the base and make sure the
angle of the base will not change accidentally during work.
Installation of the guide (VIII)
In case of cutting along a straight line, it is required to use the guide, which permits to move the jig saw along the edge of the
material to be cut. In case of cutting along a straight line, avoid moving the jig saw only with hands and whenever possible use the
guide or other accessories which permit to guide the tool.
Insert the guide in the slots of the base and lock it with a bolt. Always insert the guide in both the slots of the base, since only in
this way it is guaranteed the base of the guide is parallel to the base of the jigsaw.

USING THE TOOL

Before work make sure the protection of the blade is installed correctly and lowered. Wear eye and hearing protection, as well as
