ANTI-SPLINTER INSERT
To minimize splintering of the top surface of the
material being cut, place the anti-splinter insert
in the blade opening of the footplate (Fig. 6).
Note: This insert will only work with blades that
have ground sides such as T301CD, T101B,
T101D, and T101DP.
FLUSH CUTTING
To allow the saw to make a perpendicular cut
close to a vertical surface, the footplate may be

INSERT
Always be certain that smaller workpieces are
securely fastened to a bench or other support.
Larger panels may be held in place by clamps
on a bench or sawhorses.
To begin a cut, clearly mark the cutting line,
and rest the front of the footplate on the work.
Engage the switch, and move the blade into the
work using only enough forward pressure to
keep the blade cutting steadily. DO NOT
FORCE, as this will not make the saw cut
faster; let the blade do the work.
When cutting metal, it is often advisable to use
a lubricant to cool the blade and extend its life.
Choose blades carefully, as the ability of the
jigsaw to follow curves, provides smoother
finishes, or faster cutting is directly related to
the type of blade used.
BLADE SELECTION
• Choose blades carefully, as the ability of the
jigsaw to make the fastest cuts, to follow tight
curves, to achieve the smoothest finish and/or
to maximize the life of the blade are directly
related to the type of blade used.
• Always use a blade that is appropriate for the
cutting task.
• Always make a test cut in a piece of scrap material.

repositioned as follows. Remove screw, move
footplate to the front mounting slot, and be sure
the detent notch is aligned with the detent slot
in the footplate. Re-insert screw into the
threaded hole closest to the detent notch, and
securely tighten (Fig. 7). Note that when the
footplate is retracted in this manner, only
90˚cuts are possible, and optional cutting guide
may not be used.

SCREW
• Most jigsaw blades have upward-pointing
teeth, which helps to pull the jigsaw against the
workpiece and minimizes vibration. Blades with
upward-pointing teeth produce a clean cut on
the bottom of the workpiece.
• Blades with downward-pointing teeth
(reverse-tooth blade) can be used to produce a
clean cut on the top of the workpiece (that side
that faces the jigsaw's footplate), such as when
cutting an already-installed countertop from the
top. When using reverse-tooth blades,
downward force must be applied to the jigsaw.
• Blades with teeth that point straight out (rather
than up or down) allow splinter-free cutting on
both sides of the workpiece. When using such
blades, downward force must be applied to the
jigsaw.
• The following types of blades should only be
used with orbital Setting O:
1. Blades with teeth that point downward
(reverse-tooth blades).
2. Blades with teeth that point straight out
rather than up or down.
3. Carbide-tipped blades.
4. Grit-edge blades.
