position, the cleaner will imbibe the sawdust
through the vacuum adapter.
As a suction mechanism for the suction
of cutting dust.
NOTE: You should connect the vacuum
adapter to the cleaner when you use the
sawdust vacuum function.
As a blower for blowing cutting dust
away from the holes of the blade guard
and into the area during cutting operation.
16. LASER GUIDE (ONLY FOR WX474)
Depress the laser on/off switch button (20), the
laser device can provide a beam in the same
plane as the blade, which projects onto the
work piece to generate a line. The saw blade
can be directed to follow the line in order
to align the cut with the line. Either straight
cutting or bevel cutting, it will make more
precise movement during cutting.
WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
JIGSAW
If your power tool becomes too hot, especially
when used at low speed, set the speed to
maximum and run no Load for 2-3 minutes to
cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very
low speeds.
GENERAL
Always use a blade suited to the material and
material thickness to be cut. Always ensure the
work–piece is firmly held or clamped to prevent
movement. For easier control, use low speed to
start cutting, then increase to correct speed.
Any movement of the material may affect
the quality of the cut. The blade cuts on the
upward stroke and may chip the uppermost.
Ensure your uppermost surface is a non-
visible surface when your work is finished.
CUTTING LAMINATES
Use a fine tooth blade when cutting most
laminates and thin wood materials. To reduce
edge chipping, clamp pieces of waste wood at
both ends on both sides and cut through the
wood during cutting.
Jigsaw
CIRCLE CUTTING
Do not use the pendulum action when cutting
tight circles or angles.
PLUNGE SAWING
Plunge cutting may be used only on soft
materials such as wood, aerated concrete,
gypsum plaster boards, etc.!
Use only short saw blades.
Place the front edge of the base plate on the
workpiece and switch on. Press the machine
firmly against the workpiece and plunge the
saw blade slowly into the workpiece.
As soon as the complete surface of the base
plate rests on the work piece, continue to saw
along the cutting line. (See Fig. M,N)
METAL CUTTING
Use a finer tooth blade for ferrous metals and
a coarse tooth blade for non-ferrous metals.
When cutting thin sheet metals always clamp
wood on both sides of the sheet to reduce
vibration or tearing of the sheet metal. Both
wood and sheet metal must be cut. Do not
force the cutting blade when cutting thin metal
or sheet steel, as they are harder materials and
will take longer to cut. Excessive blade force
may reduce the life of the blade or damage the
motor. To reduce heat during metal cutting, add
a little lubricant along the cutting line.
MAINTENANCE
Remove the plug from the socket before
carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
Your power tool requires no additional
lubrication or maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in your
power tool. Never use water or chemical
cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean
with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool
in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots
clean. Keep all working controls free of dust.
Occasionally you may see sparks through the
ventilation slots. This is normal and will not
damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
