5. To start the jigsaw, squeeze the
trigger. Wait until the blade is
running at speed before
attempting to cut the workpiece.
6. Maintain the saw at constant
speed by pressing in the lock-on
button.
• You can then release your
finger pressure on the trigger.
7. To stop the jigsaw if the lock-on
button is used, squeeze the trigger fully in, then release it and the motor will
stop.
USING THE JIGSAW
1. Place the sole-plate on the workpiece and squeeze the trigger to run the
jigsaw up to its working speed before letting the blade touch the cut line.
To make your cut, move the saw slowly forward along the cutting line.
2. Adjust the speed controller to suit the material being cut using the following
suggested settings as a starting point. However, the optimum speed will be
determined with practice.
• Plastic
• Steel
• Hardboard
• Ceramic, aluminium, non-ferrous metals
• Timber, plywood & chipboard
3. Take extra care when cutting curves - move the blade slowly to avoid stress
on the blade.
4. When sawing, hold the jigsaw in front of you but do not put unnecessary
pressure on the blade and avoid applying lateral pressure.
5. Let the blade work through the workpiece, ensuring the sole plate is flush
with the workpiece.
ADJUSTING THE PENDULUM
The pendulum moves the blade away from the cut on the down (non-cutting)
stroke. The pendulum can be particularly useful when cutting thicker, denser
materials.
1. Adjust the control to suit the material being worked, and try to balance its
use with adjustments to the speed of the saw to achieve the optimum
setting for the job.
