ADJUSTING THE CUTTING SPEED
The variable speed feature of this jigsaw enhances the сutting performance and saves the
blade from undue wear.
•
The variable speed control (14) is used to programme the speed of the blade. The
speed should be adapted to the material being cut.
•
To increase the speed turn the knob counterclockwise. To decrease the speed turn the
knob clockwise..
•
Determine the optimum speed by making a trial cut in a scrap piece of material.
Note: using the correct speed for the job increases the life of the blade.
CHANGING A BLADE
Warning: Always ensure that the saw is switched off and plug is removed from the power
point before making any adjustments.
•
Remove the blade guard (8) .
•
Turn the quick-release chuck (15) and hold it in this position.
•
Push the required saw blade into the quickrelease chuck (15) as far as the limit stop.
•
Release the quick-release chuck so that it returns to its initial position. The saw blade is
now locked.
•
Replace the guard (8) back onto the appliance.
PENDULUM ADJUSTMENT
•
The pendulum lever (12) has 4 positions.
•
Position "0" selects normal cutting without pendulum action.
•
The next three positions "1, 2 & 3" cause the blade to swing slightly backwards and
forwards as it cuts. This pendulum actions increases the efficiency of cutting.
•
Set the pendulum lever (12) to one of the three settings "1, 2 or 3" according to degree
of pendulum action required. Experiment on a piece of scrap material to determine the
optimum pendulum action setting for the material of the work piece.
LASER LINE SYSTEM
Warning: Do not stare directly at the laser beam.
Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than the work piece.
