USE OF EXTENSION CORDS
Make sure the extension cord is in good condition before using. Always use the proper size extension cords with the tool – that
is, proper wire size for various lengths of cord and heavy enough to carry the current the tool will draw. Use of an undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. For proper size cords see chart.

Screwdriver Method
• Turn the slotted blade support adjustment screw (6) in direction A.
• Slide the blade support roller against the rear of the blade. The blade must locate in the central recess of the roller.
• Turn the blade support adjustment screw in direction B B to lock the blade support in place.
Tool Free Method
• The blade support roller can be adjusted in a "tool free" manner, by turning the scroll ing knob (8) so that the
adjustment screw is rotated around to the front of the unit where it can be turned by hand.
CONNECTING A VACUUM CLEANER TO THE TOOL (FIG. C & D)
• Align the dust extraction adaptor (14) with the saw shoe as shown.
• Insert the ribs (16) into the slots (17).
• Pull the adaptor towards the rear of the jigsaw to secure.
• Connect the vacuum cleaner hose (18) (not supplied) to the adaptor.
• Dust extraction is not possible when making bevel cuts.
WARNING: Fire Hazard. Do not use vacuum adapter when cutting metal. Metal filings will be hot and could cause a fire
in the vacuum container.
OPERATION
WARNING: Laceration Hazard. To prevent loss of control, never use the tool when the saw shoe is loose or removed.
Failure to do this could result in serious personal injury.
ADJUSTING THE SHOE PLATE FOR BEVEL CUTS (FIG. E)
The shoe plate can be set to a left or right bevel angle of up to 45°.
• Turn the locking knob (11) in direction A to release the shoe plate (10).
• Pull the shoe plate (10) backwards and set it to the required angle. You can use the scale or a protractor to check the angle.
• Turn the locking knob (11) in direction B to lock the shoe plate in place.
To reset the shoe plate for straight cuts:
• Turn the locking knob (11) in direction A to release the shoe plate (10).
• Pull the shoe plate backwards and set it to an angle of approximately 0º.
• Push the shoe plate forward.
• Turn the locking knob (11) in direction B to lock the shoe plate in place. Make sure that the shoe plate is supported
by the guide ribs.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL
• Set the variable speed control knob (3) to the required speed range. Use a high speed for wood, medium speed for
aluminum and PVC and low speed for metals other than aluminum.
SWITCHING ON AND OFF
• To switch the tool on, press the on/off switch (1).

• To switch the tool off, release the on/off switch. To switch the tool off, when in continuous operation, press the on/off
switch once more and release it.
USING THE MODE SELECTOR
The mode selector (9) can set in 3 positions
1. Scrolling position (FIG. F and G) - this position allows the scroller knob (8) to be rotated for intricate and accurate
sawing. (In this position there is no orbital action). It is recommended to use scroller blades when in this mode.
2. Straight cutting position (FIG. Ha, Hb and Hc ) this position turns off orbital action and locks the scroller knob to
prevent its rotation. The scroller knob can be locked in any of 4 positions for straight cutting.
Method of engagement:
a. Turn the Mode Selector to the scrolling position.
b. Rotate the scroller knob to the desired position (this can be any of 4 positions - the blade can point forwards,
reverse, left or right).
c. Turn the Mode Selector to the neutral position. (In this position the Scroller Knob cannot be turned).
3. Orbital Action Position ( ( F F I I G G . . L L a a , , L L b b a a n n d d L L c c ) ) - this position switches on the orbital action for fast and efficient straight
cuts. This mode can only be selected with the blade pointing forwards.
Method of engagement:
a. Turn the mode selector to the scrolling position.
b. Rotate the scroller knob to point the blade forwards.
c. Turn the Mode Selector to the orbital position. (In this position the Scroller Knob cannot be turned).
HOW TO USE THE SIGHTLINE
®
FEATURE (FIG. J)
• Use a pencil to mark the cutting line.
• Position the jigsaw over the line (19).
• Viewing from directly above the jigsaw the line of cut can be easily followed. Should this view be restricted for any reason,
the indent (20) can be used as an alternate cutting guide.

GENERAL
• Use a high speed for wood, a medium speed for aluminum and PVC and a low speed for metals other than aluminum.
SAWING LAMINATES
As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.
• Use a fine-tooth saw blade.
• Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
• To minimize splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood or hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw through
this sandwich.
SAWING METAL
• Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than sawing wood.
• Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal.
• When cutting thin metal, clamp a piece of scrap wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through this sandwich.
• Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.
