ORBITAL MOTION

See Figure 6, page 12.
The blade of the saw cuts in an orbital motion. This feature
is adjustable and provides faster, more efficient cutting. With
orbital motion the blade cuts through the work on the upstroke
but does not drag across the work on the downstroke. To
adjust the orbital motion, rotate the orbital adjustment knob
to the desired setting. Refer to the chart to find the right
setting for your application.
NOTE: Setting the orbital position to a lower setting will
result in a smoother finish but slower cut. A higher setting
will result in a rougher finish but faster cut.
STRAIGHT CUTTING
See Figure 7, page 12.
A straight cut can be made by clamping a piece of wood or
straightedge to the workpiece and guiding the edge of the
saw base against it. Make the cut from one direction only.
Don't cut halfway and complete the cut from the opposite end.
SCROLL CUTTING
See Figure 8, page 13.
Scroll cuts can be made with the jig saw by guiding the
direction of the cut with applied pressure on the handle.
NOTE: Tighter tolerance scroll cutting may require the use
of a scroll cutting blade (not included).
WARNING:
Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in bro-
ken blades or damage to the material being cut.

PLUNGE CUTTING

See Figure 9, page 13.
Depending on the thickness of the material being cut, you
may need to drill a pilot hole before making plunge cuts.
To make plunge cuts using pilot holes:
 Mark the line of cut clearly on the workpiece.
 Drill a pilot hole inside the area marked by the line of cut.
 Slowly lower the blade through the pilot hole in the
 Do not move the base forward until the blade is entirely
 Move the saw forward to complete the opening.
To make plunge cuts without using pilot holes:
 Mark the line of cut clearly on the workpiece.
 Tilt the jig saw forward so that it rests on the front edge
 Make sure the blade is aligned with the area to be cut.

WARNING:
To avoid loss of control, broken blades, or damage to
the material being cut, always use extreme caution when
making plunge cuts. We do not recommend plunge cut-
ting on materials other than wood.
The pilot hole should be large enough to slide the blade
