JA1010 CIRCLE AND PARALLEL CUTTING GUIDE
The JA1010 is used for fast and accurate straight and circle cutting. It
includes the guide, two clamps for attaching it to the jig saw (A), and a
center pin for guiding cIrcle cuts (B). The clamps and the centering pin
can be stored on the guide.
One end of the clamp is used to attach the guide's bar to jig saws that
have narrow tops on their footplate mounting slots (C) and the other end
is used to attach the guide's bar to jig saws that have wide tops on their
footplate mounting slots (D) (Fig. 2).
When possible, attach the bar to the jig saw using both clamps for
enhanced grip and precision.
ATTACHING GUIDE TO JIG SAW
1. Orient the blade clamp so that the proper end is placed on the jig saw
foot from either side of the tool.
2. Insert guide' bar through a clamp, then through the slots provided in
foot, with the guide's fence orientated correctly for the intended
application, parallel cutting or circle cutting. (If possible, place second
clamp on bar from opposite side of jig saw.)
3. Place lock knob(s) on proper side of clamp(s) and securely tighten
lock knob(s) on the clamp(s) (Fig. 3).
PARALLEL CUTTING
Parallel cuts can be made from 5/8" to 6" in from the edge of the work-
piece.
1. The guide fence surface needs to be positioned ALONGSIDE the
workpiece (Fig. 4).
2. Hook clamp(s) onto footplate, adjust fence to desired width and place
lock knob(s) on proper side of clamp(s)
3. Securely tighten lock knob(s) on the clamp(s) (Fig. 3).
4. Insert jig saw's plug into power source, hold the saw firmly, squeeze
trigger and slowly push the saw forward (Fig. 4).
Circle cuts can be made from 5" to 16-1/2" in diameter
1. Determine the center point of the desired circle.

2. Drill a 3/16" (5 mm) center hole 7/8" (23 mm) deep in workpiece. (For
enhanced precision, drill the hole using a drill press, if possible).
3. Drill or plunge cut near the circle's edge, turn saw off, and disconnect
the plug from power source.
4. Insert guide bar through a clamp, then through the slots provided in
foot, from either side of foot (Fig. 5). (If possible, place second clamp
on bar from opposite side of jig saw).
5. Remove guide pin from end of guide, push pin through proper hole
provided in guide, then into center hole of workpiece. (When used
with a Bosch JS572 jig saw --- or the JS180 cordless jig saw --- the
holes labeled for the JS572 should be used.) For other jig saws, one
of the other holes should be used.
6. Measure the distance from the center of the hole to the desired circle
radius. Adjust that measurement as necessary to account for the
width of the blade:
- When cutting a hole, cut from inside the intended radius.
- When cutting wheels or discs, cut from the outside the intended
radius.
7. Hook clamp(s) onto footplate, and position the guide to that adjusted
radius measurement.
8. Place lock knob(s) on proper side of clamp(s) and securely tighten
lock knob(s) on the clamp(s) (Fig. 3).
9. Insert jig saw's plug into power source, hold the saw firmly, squeeze
trigger and slowly push the saw forward.
CIRCLE-CUTTING TIPS:
• Place small wedges in the cut as shown in Fig. 6, to keep the inner
circle from spreading when near the end of the cut.
• Use a thick jig saw blade, such as the Bosh T101TP or T144DP
whenever possible.
• Make sure that the jig saw's orbital setting is at 0 (zero)
• Cut slowly so the blade will stay straight in the cut.
