Inserting the splinterguard

The splinterguard prevents the edges of the
material from splintering during the cut, even
at the end where the saw blade exits the mate­
rial.
► Switch off the machine and slide the splin­
terguard [6-1] onto the guide [6-2] and up
to the saw blade.
► Switch on the jigsaw.
► With the machine running, push the splin­
terguard in on a flat plane until it is flush
with the front edge of the saw table. This
cuts into the splinterguard.
To guarantee reliable operation of the
splinterguard, it must seal tightly on both
sides of the saw blade. A new splinter­
guard should therefore be fitted after ev­
ery saw blade change to guarantee splint­
er-free cuts.

and improves the efficiency of the chip extrac­
tion system.

table and the clamping lever.

gages.
