OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: The orbital setting button will "click" at each of the four positions. Slide the
orbital button slightly forward or backward until it locks into place.
INSTALLING THE VACUUM ADAPTOR
To reduce the amount of loose sawdust produced
while cutting; a workshop vacuum can be attached to
the jigsaw.
• To install the vacuum into the adapter (9), slide a
workshop vacuum nozzle into the vacuum adapter
(Fig. H)
NOTE: The vacuum adapter is slightly tapered. If the
adapter is too large to be inserted into the vacuum
port, insert the opposite end of the adaptor into the
vacuum port
NOTE: Twist the adapter slightly as it is pressed into the vacuum port to ensure it
is fully inserted.
HINTS FOR OPTIMUM USE
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
•
Spread a fil of oil along the intended line of cut for easier operation and
longer blade life. For cutting aluminium, kerosene is preferred.
RIP / CIRCLE CUTTING (FIGURE I, J)
Ripping and circle cutting without a pencil line are easily
done with the rip /fence circle guide (not included –
available at extra cost). Using the screw supplied with
the accessory guide, position as shown in figure I and
thread the screw into the shoe to clamp the fence
securely.
When ripping, position as shown in figure I and slide the
rip fence under the screw from either side to the saw.
Set the cross bar at desired distance from blade and
tighten screw. For ripping, the cross bar should be down
and against the straight edge of the workpiece as
shown.
