CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.
Selecting the cutting action (Fig. 1)
This tool can be operated with an orbital or a straight line (up and down) cutting action. The orbital cutting action
thrusts the blade forward on the cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed.
To change the cutting action, just turn the cutting action changing lever to the desired cutting action position.
Refer to the table to select the appropriate cutting action.

Speed adjusting dial (Fig. 3)
The tool speed can be infinitely adjusted by turning the
speed adjusting dial. Higher speed is obtained when the
speed adjusting dial is turned in the direction of number
5; lower speed is obtained when it is turned in the direc-
tion of number 1.
Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the work-
piece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed may dif-
fer with the type or thickness of the workpiece. In
general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces
faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced.
