JA1010 Circle and Parallel Cutting
Guide (Sold separately)
(Fig. 12, 13, 14, 15)
The JA1010 is used for fast and accurate
straight and circle cutting. It includes the guide,
two clamps for attaching it to the jig saw, and
a center pin for guiding circle cuts. The clamps
and the centering pin can be stored on the guide
(Fig. 12).
One end of the clamp is used to attach the
guide's bar to jig saws that have narrow tops on
their footplate mounting slots (Fig. 13).
When possible, attach the bar to the jig saw
using both clamps for enhanced grip and preci-
sion.
ATTACHING GUIDE TO JIG SAW
1. Orient the clamp so that the proper end is
placed on the jig saw foot from either side
of the tool.
2. Insert Guide Bar 24 through a clamp, then
through the slots provided in Footplate 6,
with the Guide 26 orientated correctly for
the intended application, parallel cutting
or circle cutting. (If possible, place second
clamp on bar from opposite side of jig saw.)
3. Place Lock Knob(s) 25 on proper side of
clamp(s) and securely tighten Lock Knob(s)
25 on the clamp(s) (Fig. 14).
PARALLEL CUTTING
Parallel cuts can be made from 5/8" to 6" in
from the edge of the workpiece.

tioned ALONGSIDE the workpiece (Fig. 14).
2. Hook clamp(s) onto footplate, adjust fence
to desired width and place lock knob(s) on
proper side of clamp(s).
3. Securely tighten Lock Knob(s) 25 on the
clamp(s) (Fig. 14).

ward into the "on" position (GST18V-60BC
