6. DUST COVER
When operating your jigsaw the dust cover must be
closed to allow the dust extraction system to work ef-
ficiently. The dust cover can be lifted to improve access
for cleaning, blade fitting, etc. (See Fig 3).
7. BLADE FITTING
You can only use the blade type shown in Fig 4.To open
the blade holder (6) rotate the ring counter-clockwise
(Jigsaw upside down) and hold in position (See Fig 5).
Then fully insert the blade into the blade holder slot with
blade teeth facing forward and release the ring, which
will self rotate and clamp over the top of the blade. Push
the blade into the blade holder again to ensure it is locked
in position. Ensure the edge of the blade is located in the
groove of the blade guide (See Fig 6).To remove a blade,
hold the blade and rotate the blade holder ring counter-
clockwise then lift out the blade (blade could be spring
ejected).

For best cutting results ensure you use a blade
suited to the material and cut quality you need.
Blade is spring ejected. Protect your eyes when
removing blade.
8. PARALLEL GUIDE ADJUSTMENT
The parallel guide is used for making cuts parallel to a
work-piece edge at a chosen distance. Slide the paral-
lel guide (16) arm through both fixtures to achieve the
required cutting distance and tighten screw to lock into
position. It can be used from both sides of the base plate
(10). The cutting distance is shown on the guide scale.
Always make a trial cut to check the setting.
the 0°(normal) position.
9. BLADE GUIDE
Ensure the blade is located and runs smoothly in the
groove (See Fig 6) otherwise the pendulum function will
not work correctly and the blade will not be supported
during cutting.
10. PENDULUM ACTION CONTROL
The pendulum action varies the forward cutting angle of
the blade for increased cutting efficiency. This can also
be adjusted during no load running. Refer to the chart
for more details. Do not use excessive blade force when
cutting with the pendulum action. The blade cuts on the

gloves when changing blades.
