Maximum cutting efficiency can be obtained

by adjusting the blade orbit selector lever to

suit the material being cut.

The following chart will help you determine

which setting to use for your application. This

chart is intended as a guideline only, and test

cuts in scrap material should be performed

first to determine the best setting.

)88-2+

Hard materials such as

metals or thin sheet

metals. This setting can

be used with knife

blades, grit edge

blades, rasp work and down cutting blades.

)88-2+

Soft materials where

cleaner cutting or

delicate scrolling work is

performed.

)88-2+

Medium density

materials such as

harder woods or particle

board.

)88-2+

Soft materials such as

wood, plastics, etc. and

when fast cutting is

more important than a

clean cut.

Your jigsaw is equipped with a two position

chip blower to help keep the cutting line clear

of chips.

By adjusting the chip blower lever the force

of the discharge air may be altered as

follows;

For working with wood, plastic

and similar materials that

produce large amounts of

sawdust.

The footplate may be tilted to allow angle

cuts up to 45° in either direction (Fig. 8).

To adjust footplate, remove dust shroud if

used, loosen the footplate screw and slide

the footplate slightly forward towards the

back of tool, then rotate to desired angle

(Fig. 8).

The detent slots will hold the footplate firmly

at 0°, and there are additional position marks

for 15°, 22.5° 30° and 45° angles.

Intermediate angles may be set with a

protractor (Fig. 8).

After positioning the footplate, securely

tighten the footplate screw (Fig. 8).

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.
