Connecting With Cleaner; Concerning Cutting Of Stainless Steel Plates; Selection Of Blades - HIKOKI CJ 90VST Instrucciones De Manejo

(2) For the hard material, such as a steel plate, etc., decrease
the orbital operation. For the soft material, such as lumber,
plastic, etc., increase the orbital operation to increase
work effi ciency. To cut the material accurately, decrease
the orbital operation.
8. Cutting stainless steel plates
This Jig Saw can cut stainless steel plates by using
No. 97 blade. Carefully read "Concerning cutting of
stainless steel plates" for proper operation.
9. Splinter guard
Using the splinter guard when cutting wood materials will
reduce splintering of cut surfaces.
Insert the splinter guard in the space on the base, and
push it completely. (see Fig. 6)
10. Sub base
Using the sub base (made from steel) will reduce abrasion
of aluminium base especially in cutting metals.
Using the sub base (made from resin) will reduce
scratching of cut surface. Attach the sub base to the
bottom surface of base by attached 4 screws.
CUTTING
CAUTION
○ In order to prevent blade dislodging, damage or excessive
wear on the Plunger, please make sure to have surface of
the base plate attached to the work piece while sawing.
1. Rectilinear cutting
When cutting on a straight line, fi rst draw a marking gauge
line and advance the saw along that line. Using the guide
(sold separately) will make it possible to cut accurately on
a straight line.
(1) Loosen the base bolt hexagonal bar wrench attached on
base. (Fig. 7)
(2) Move the base fully forward (Fig. 8), and tighten the base
bolt again.
(3) Attach the guide by passing it through the attachment
hole on the base and tighten the M5 bolt. (Fig. 9)
(4) Set the orbital position to "0".
NOTE
To ensure accurate cutting when using the Guide
(Fig. 9), always set the orbital position to "0".
2. Sawing curved lines
When sawing a small circular arc, reduce the feeding
speed of the machine. If the machine is fed too fast, it
could cause the blade to break.
3. Cutting a circle or a circular arc
The guide also will be helpful for circular cutting.
After attaching the guide by same way noted as above,
drive the nail or screw into the material through the
hole on the guide, then use it for an axis when cutting.
(Fig. 10)
NOTE
Circular cutting must be done with the blade approximately
vertical to the bottom surface of the base.
4. Cutting metallic materials
(1) Adjust the speed Dial between scales "3" and "4".
(2) Set the orbital position to "0" or "I".
(3) Always use an appropriate cutting fl uid (spindle oil, soapy
water, etc.). When a liquid cutting fl uid is not available,
apply grease to the back surface of the material to be
cut.
5. Pocket cutting
(1) In lumber
Aligning the blade direction with the grain of the wood,
cut step by step until a window hole is cut in the center of
the lumber. (Fig. 11)
(2) In other materials
When cutting a window hole in materials other than
lumber, initially bore a hole with a drill or similar tool from
which to start cutting.
6. Angular cutting
The base can be swiveled to both sides by up to 45° for
angular cutting. (Fig. 12)
(1) Loosen the base bolt by hexagonal bar wrench attached
on base and move the base fully forward. (Fig. 7, 8)
(2) Align the scale (from 0 degrees to 45 degrees by
15-degree increments) of the semi-circular part of the
base with the [▽] mark on the gear cover. (Fig. 13)
(3) Tighten the M5 bolt again. (Fig. 7)
(4) Set the orbital position to "0".
NOTE
Angular cutting can not be done when adopting dust
collector.

CONNECTING WITH CLEANER

By connecting with cleaner (sold separately) through dust
collector and adapter (sold separately), most of dust can be
collected.
(1) Remove the hexagonal bar wrench from the base.
(2) Move the base fully forward. (Fig. 7, 8)
(3) Connect the dust collector with adapter. (Fig. 14)
(4) Connect the adapter with the nose of cleaner. (Fig. 14)
(5) Insert dust collector into the rear hole of the base until the
hook catches in the notch. (Fig. 15)
(6) Press the hook to remove the dust collector.
NOTE
Wear the dust mask additionally, if available.
CONCERNING CUTTING OF STAINLESS STEEL
PLATES
CAUTION
In order to prevent blade dislodging, damage or excessive
wear on the Plunger, please make sure to have surface of
the base plate attached to the work piece while sawing.
When cutting stainless steel plates, adjust the unit as
described below:
1. Adjust the speed
Blade Thickness of material
No. 97 1.5 – 2.5 mm
NOTE
Dial scale reading is for reference only. The higher the
speed is, the quicker the material is cut. But the service
life of the blade will be reduced in this case. When the
speed is too low, cutting will take longer, although the
service life will be prolonged. Make adjustments as
desired.
2. Set the orbital position to "0"
NOTE
○ When cutting use cutting fl uid (oil base cutting fl uid) to
prolong the blade's service life.

SELECTION OF BLADES

○ Accessory blades
To ensure maximum operating effi ciency and results,
it is very important to select the appropriate blade best
suited to the type and thickness of the material to be
cut. Three types of blades are provided as standard
accessories. The blade number is engraved in the vicinity
of the mounting portion of each blade. Select appropriate
blades by referring to Table 1.
