Jigsaw
6. CUTTING ACTION SELECTION SWITCH
This jigsaw has a 4 position switch (0-3)
located on the Left Hand side of the machine
just behind the blade. Only operate this
switch when the machine is switched ‘Off’
and the blade is stationary.
Position ‘0’ Straight cutting action
Positions ‘1 – 3’ Orbital cutting actions
Orbital cutting action has an aggressive
blade cutting motion and is especially suited
for cutting soft materials.
During orbital cutting the blade moves
forwards as well as up and down. Position 1
is the least aggressive of the orbital cutting
actions, with position 3 being the most
aggressive.
The Table below gives some typical
examples of the use of the orbital cutting
facility. We recommend that the operator
always practices on a piece of unwanted
material to determine the most suitable
selection for the task at hand.
CUTTING ADVICE
Note: Always ensure that the footplate of the
jigsaw is in close contact with the workpiece
throughout the cutting procedure. If the
footplate is allowed to ‘lift’ away from the
workpiece operator control and accuracy will
be compromised.
1. Clearly mark out the cutting line to be
followed on the workpiece (use a pencil or
other suitable marking device).
2. Small workpieces should be secured
in a vice or clamped to a workbench. Check
that the passage of the blade
is not obstructed.
3. Larger workpieces should be clamped to
sawhorses or similar. Check that the passage
of the blade is not obstructed.
4. Set the Cutting Action Selection Lever
to the desired position.
5. Align the saw with the cutting line and rest
the front of the footplate on the workpiece.
Note: Ensure that the blade is not in contact
with the workpiece at this stage.
6. Switch the machine ‘On’ and gently feed
the jigsaw into the workpiece. Be careful to
hold the jigsaw rmly and keep full control as
the blade contacts the workpiece.
7. Adjust the speed of the blade as
necessary to achieve optimum cutting
performance.
8. Use the Laser guide if necessary,
but only on non-reective materials.
Note: Do not force the blade. Let the blade
do the work by adjusting the speed and feed
rates to achieve best performance.
Position Typical Application
