Hex wrench storage
► Fig.7: 1. Hook 2. Hex wrench
When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the
figure to keep it from being lost.
First, insert the hex wrench into the hole. Then push it
into the hook until it locked.
Dust cover
CAUTION:
Always wear safety goggles even
when operating the tool with the dust cover
lowered.
Lower the dust cover to prevent chips from flying.
However, when making bevel cuts, raise it all the way.
► Fig.8: 1. Dust cover
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always hold the base flush with
the workpiece. Failure to do so may cause jig saw
blade breakage, resulting in a serious injury.
CAUTION:
Advance the tool very slowly when
cutting curves or scrolling. Forcing the tool may
cause a slanted cutting surface and jig saw blade
breakage.
► Fig.9: 1. Cutting line 2. Base
Turn the tool on without the jig saw blade making any
contact and wait until the blade attains full speed. Then
rest the base flat on the workpiece and gently move the
tool forward along the previously marked cutting line.
Bevel cutting
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before tilting the base.
CAUTION:
Raise the dust cover all the way
before making bevel cuts.
With the base tilted, you can make bevel cuts at any
angle between 0° and 45° (left or right).
► Fig.10
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench. Move the base so that the bolt is positioned in
the center of the cross-shaped slot in the base.
► Fig.11: 1. Hex wrench 2. Bolt 3. Base
Tilt the base until the desired bevel angle is obtained.
The edge of the motor housing indicates the bevel
angle by graduations. Then tighten the bolt to secure
the base.
► Fig.12: 1. Edge 2. Graduation
Front flush cuts
► Fig.13: 1. Hex wrench 2. Bolt 3. Base
Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex
wrench and slide the base all the way back. Then
tighten the bolt to secure the base.
Cutouts
Cutouts can be made with either of two methods
"Boring a starting hole" or "Plunge cutting".
Boring a starting hole
► Fig.14
For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an edge,
pre-drill a starting hole 12 mm or more in diameter.
Insert the jig saw blade into this hole to start your cut.
Plunge cutting
► Fig.15
You need not bore a starting hole or make a lead-in cut
if you carefully do as follows.
1.
Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base with
the jig saw blade point positioned just above the work-
piece surface.
2. Apply pressure to the tool so that the front edge of
the base will not move when you switch on the tool and
gently lower the back end of the tool slowly.
3.
As the jig saw blade pierces the workpiece, slowly
lower the base of the tool down onto the workpiece
surface.
4. Complete the cut in the normal manner.
Finishing edges
► Fig.16
To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the
jig saw blade lightly along the cut edges.
Metal cutting
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting
metal. Failure to do so will cause significant jig saw
blade wear. The underside of the workpiece can be
greased instead of using a coolant.
Dust extraction
► Fig.17: 1. Hose (optional accessory) 2. Dust cover
Clean cutting operations can be performed by connect-
ing this tool to a Makita vacuum cleaner.
Insert the hose of the vacuum cleaner into the hole at
the rear of the tool.
Lower the dust cover before operation.
NOTE: Dust extraction cannot be performed when
making bevel cuts.
