Note:

The rip fence can also be used for circular cuts. For this purpose, position a nail at the

center point of the circle and use as axis for the stop. The scale for circled cuts is on

the back of the guide of the rip fence.

Working with the jig saw

Danger!

Injury hazard! Safe and precise operation is only possible if the work piece is securely

fastened.

Danger!

Injury hazard! Make sure the blade is not contacting the work piece before the switch is

turned on.

Important

Only sharp saw blades in good condition will result in optimal cutting performance and

prevent overloading of the tool.

Adjusting and selecting speed

1. Switch on the device at switch 2 (Fig. 5) and set the appropriate speed for the work

at knob (1). The speed of the saw blade can be adjusted up to approximately 4200

strokes per minute.

In general:

Soft materials = high stroke rate, coarse toothing

Hard materials = low stroke rate, fine toothing

The appropriate speed depends on the blade used, the material, the thickness of the

workpiece, the feed, etc. You may have to "experiment" a little to find the optimal result.

CAUTION:

•If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds for a long time, the motor will get

overloaded and heated up.

Cutting:

When sawing, ensure that the base plate makes firm contact with the work piece.

The jig saw can then be easily guided by hand. For the purpose of clean saw cuts and

optimal cutting performance, the feed rate must be adapted to the type of material

(e.g. slower feed rate when sawing metals).

When sawing metals, a small amount of oil should be applied to the cutting line.

Thin sheet metal should be clamped to a sufficiently stable base material (plywood

sheet).

Thus, vibrations of the sheet metal can be largely prevented.
