3. Extension cord
When the work area is far away from the power source, use an extension cord of sufficient
thickness and rated capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.
WARNING:
4. Check the receptacle
If the receptacle only loosely accepts the plug, the receptacle must be repaired. Contact
a licensed electrician to make appropriate repairs.
If such a fautly receptacle is used, it may cause overheating, resulting in a serious hazard.
5. Confirming condition of the environment:
Confirm that the work site is placed under appropriate conditions conforming to
prescribed precautions.
6. Mounting the blade
(1) Open the chip cover. (Fig. 2)
(2) Use the accessory hexagonal bar wrench
to loosen the blade set screw on the set
ring, as shown in Fig. 3.
(3) Fully insert the blade mounting portion
into the set ring with the rear face of the
blade engaged with the groove and tighten
the set screw. (Fig. 3)
(4) Close the chip cover. (Fig. 2)
NOTES:
Loosened set screw may cause the blade
to be damaged.
Always ensure that the set screw is securely
tightened.
Always ensure that the mounting portion
of the set ring is clean and clear of sawdust
to ensure proper blade mounting and set
screw clamping.
7. Adjusting the blade operating speed
The jig saw is equipped with the electric
control circuit which enables stepless
speed control. To adjust the speed, turn
the dial shown in Fig. 4. When the dial is set
to "1", the jig saw operates at the mini-
mum speed (700 /min.). When the dial set
to "5", the jig saw operates at the maxi-
mum speed (3200/min.). Adjust the speed
according to the material to be cut and
working efficiency.
