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 and on both sides
and cut through the wood during cutting.
CIRCLE CUTTING
Do not use the pendulum (orbital) action when cutting tight circles or angles
POCKET CUTTING (SOFT MATERIALS ONLY)
To cut material out, either drill a hole large enough to
insert the jig saw blade or proceed as follows. Clearly
mark the area to be cut. Position the jigsaw over the
marked area with the rounded front edge of the base
plate resting on the surface (See Fig 12). Ensure the
blade is not touching but is close to the work surface.
Switch the jigsaw on and gently swing the blade down
into the material but maintain a pivoting force on the
front edge of the base. Only when the blade has fully
penetrated the material and the full length of the base
plate is firmly resting on the work surface, you move the
jigsaw forward for normal cutting.

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.
MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE
Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer
performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and
changing accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically
and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service
facility.
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
