LOCK-ON BUTTON

Your jigsaw is equipped with a lock-on

feature, which is convenient when

continuous cutting for extended periods of

time is required. To lock the switch ON,

depress the trigger switch (1), push in and

hold the lock-on button (2), then release

the trigger (Fig. 3). Release the lock-on

button and your jigsaw will continue

running. Depress and release the trigger

switch to release lock.

NOTE: The lock-on button can be

accessed from either side of the handle.

GENERAL CUTTING

WARNING

: Keep hands and

fingers away from the space between

the motor housing and the blade clamp.

Do not reach underneath workpiece

while the saw is running.

Rest the front of the sole plate on the

workpiece and align the cutting edge of

the blade with the cutting line on your

workpiece (Fig. 4). Make sure the power

cord is out of your way and not in the

path the blade will follow. Start your

saw and move it toward the workpiece.

Apply enough downward pressure to

keep the saw steady and only enough

forward pressure to keep the blade

cutting freely.

ASSEMBLY & OPERATION

SPEED CONTROLLER

Adjusting the speed to suit the application

enhances cutting performance and saves

the blade from undue wear.

To determine optimum cutting speed first

perform test cuts on offcuts of the

workpiece to be cut.

Rotate the speed controller, located at

the back of the jigsaw to set the blade

speed.

Position "1" denotes the lowest speed.

Position "6" denotes the highest speed.

WARNING:

Forcing the saw may overheat the

motor and break saw blades.

DUST EXTRACTION

The dust extraction outlet allows a dust

extraction system to be fitted to the jigsaw

permitting the efficient removal of dust

whilst the tool is in use. The adaptor allows

a standard household vacuum cleaner to

be connected to the outlet.

WARNING: Do not use a dust

extraction system or a vacuum

cleaner when cutting metal. Sparks may

ignite residual wood dust.
