NOTE: Use a dry cloth to wipe the dirt off the lens of
the lamp. Be careful not to scratch the lens of lamp, or
it may lower the illumination.
Adjusting the shoe
►Fig.5: 1. Hex wrench 2. Hex bolt 3. Loosen
When the blade loses its cutting efficiency in one place
along its cutting edge, reposition the shoe to utilize a
sharp, unused portion of its cutting edge. This will help
to lengthen the life of the blade.
To reposition the shoe, loosen the bolt with hex wrench.
Slide the shoe to the desired position and then tighten
the bolt firmly.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the recipro/jig
saw blade
CAUTION: Always clean out all chips or foreign
matter adhering to the blade, blade clamp and/or
slider. Failure to do so may cause insufficient tighten-
ing of the blade, resulting in a serious injury.
For Model JR103D
►Fig.6: 1. Recipro saw blade 2. Blade clamp sleeve
Insert the recipro saw blade into the blade clamp as far
as it will go. The blade clamp sleeve rotates and fixes
the recipro saw blade. Make sure that the recipro saw
blade cannot be extracted even though you try to pull
it out.
CAUTION: If you do not insert the recipro saw
blade deep enough, the recipro saw blade may be
ejected unexpectedly during operation. This can
be extremely dangerous.
NOTE: You can not use the jig saw blade with
JR103D.
►Fig.7: 1. Recipro saw blade 2. Blade clamp sleeve
To remove the recipro saw blade, rotate the blade
clamp sleeve in the direction of the arrow fully. The reci-
pro saw blade is removed and the blade clamp sleeve is
fixed at the released position.
NOTE: If you remove the recipro saw blade without
rotating the blade clamp sleeve fully, the sleeve
may not be fixed. In this case, rotate the blade
clamp sleeve fully, then make the sleeve fixed at the
released position.

3. Loosen
To install the recipro/jig saw blade, loosen the bolt by
hex wrench. When installing a recipro saw blade, press
the bolt with the hex wrench to open the slot during
inserting the blade.

►Fig.11
You can use both jig saw blades (B type) and recipro
saw blades according to your work. Insert the recipro/
jig saw blade straight into the blade clamp and tighten
it by hex wrench. Pull the recipro/jig saw blade lightly to
make sure that the recipro/jig saw blade does not fall off
during operation.
To remove the recipro/jig saw blade, follow the installa-
tion procedure in reverse.
Hex wrench storage
►Fig.12: 1. Hex wrench
When not in use, store the hex wrench as shown in the
figure to keep it from being lost.
OPERATION
CAUTION: Always press the shoe firmly
against the workpiece during operation. If the
shoe is held away from the workpiece during opera-
tion, strong vibration and/or twisting will be produced,
causing the blade to snap dangerously.
CAUTION: Always wear gloves to protect your
hands from hot flying chips when cutting metal.
CAUTION: Be sure to always wear suitable eye
protection which conforms with current national
standards.
CAUTION: Always use a suitable coolant (cut-
ting oil) when cutting metal. Failure to do so will
cause premature blade wear.
►Fig.13
Press the shoe firmly against the workpiece. Do not
allow the tool to bounce. Bring the recipro saw blade
into light contact with the workpiece. First, make a pilot
groove using a slower speed. Then use a faster speed
to continue cutting.
►Fig.14
►Fig.15
You can use the switch lever or trigger according to your
work.
NOTE: If the tool is operated continuously until the
battery cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest
for 15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
