DUST-COLLECTION
.
To keep the work surface clean, the jigsaw is equipped
with a connection for dust extraction. You can connect
.
your vacuum cleaner to this. Use the vacuum cleaner
adapter supplied for this.
GUARD
The jigsaw is fitted with a guard. Make sure that this
guard is closed as much as possible while the jigsaw is in
use. This gives the best protection against splinters and
ensures optimum dust extraction.

PUTTING INTO OPERATION
SAWING
•
Switch on the jigsaw.
•
Place the bottom plate of the appliance on the
workpiece.
•
Move slowly towards the previously drawn sawing
line and press the jigsaw forward slowly.
Press the bottom plate firmly against the workpiece.
If you do not do this the jigsaw is likely to vibrate and
the saw will break.
Let the saw do the work. Do not press too hard on
the jigsaw.

PARALLEL SAW GUIDE
Fig.6
.
If you want to make a saw cut that runs parallel to the
edge of the plank, use the parallel saw guide supplied.
You do this as follows:
•
Loosen the socket head screws on the front of the
.
bottom plate.
2
.
•
Slide the parallel saw guide through the openings at
,
the side of the bottom plate.
•
Determine the distance between the saw cut and the
side of the workpiece.
•
Secure the guide at this distance with the socket head
screws. If the required distance between saw cut and
side is 5 cm, set the indicator '5' on the guide exactly
above the saw blade.
,
•
Tighten the socket head screws again.
CUTTING IN
).
Fig.7
If the starting position of the workpiece to be sawn is not
the side, or if no hole has been drilled, you must cut in. To
do this, proceed as follows:
,
•
Put the saw on the rounded front of the bottom
plate.
•
Switch on the appliance and slowly lower the saw
until it touches the workpiece.
•
Let the saw cut into the workpiece gently without
forcing it.
,
•
When you are through the workpiece, take the saw
out of the hole.
.
•
Place the appliance in the normal position in the sawn
hole and continue the saw cut.

You can also cut in by first drilling a hole in the
workpiece. To do this, use a bit that makes a hole big
enough for the saw blade. Now you can carry out the
steps described under 'Sawing'.
MALFUNCTIONS
1. The electric motor is getting hot.
•
The motor is being overloaded by workpieces that
are too big.
Saw at a lower speed so that the motor can cool down.
•
The motor is defective.
Give the appliance to your Ferm dealer for checking
and/or repair.
2. The appliance does not work.
•
The mains connection has been broken.
Check the mains connection for faults.
•
The switch is damaged.
Give the appliance to your Ferm dealer for checking
and/or repair.
3. It is very difficult to move the workpiece along
the saw blade in a straight line and the saw cut
is uneven.
•
The saw blade is warped or blunt.
Replace the saw blade.
4. The workpiece is starting to vibrate violently
during sawing.
•
The saw blade is overheated or distorted.
Replace the saw blade.
5. The appliance runs noisily and/or very
unevenly.
•
The carbon brushes are worn.
Give the appliance to your Ferm dealer for
replacement of the carbon brushes.
MAINTENANCE
During maintenance and cleaning always remove
the mains plug from the socket. Never use liquids
when cleaning electrical parts of the jigsaw.
Maintain the jigsaw regularly to prevent unnecessary
problems. This will ensure that your appliance remains in
optimum condition
•
Keep the bottom plate clean so that no inaccuracies
occur during sawing.
•
Keep the outside of the jigsaw clean so that all
moving parts can move accurately and without wear.
•
Keep the ventilation slots of the motor clean so that
these do not overheat.
•
If the carbon brushes are worn the saw will run
noisily and unevenly. In the end the saw will no longer
work. Have the carbon brushes replaced by your
Ferm dealer.
•
Lubricate the saw blade guide regularly.
CLEANING
Keep the ventilation slots of the machine clean to
prevent overheating of the motor.
