OPERATION
SCROLL CUTTING
See Figure 9, page 10.
Scroll cuts can be made with the jig saw by guiding the
direction of the cut with applied pressure on the handle as
shown.
WARNING:
Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in
broken blades or damage to the material being cut.
ANGLE CUTTING (BEVEL CUTTING)
See Figures 10 - 11, page 10.
With the tool-free shoe adjustment, you can make quick
changes to the bevel setting. The shoe can be angled
45˚ left or right for bevel cutting, with positive stops in 15˚
increments. A protractor is recommended when accurate
cuts are required.
 Remove the battery pack from the tool.
 Push the shoe adjustment lever forward to loosen the
shoe.
 Slide the shoe forward and to the left or right. Select the
desired degree of bevel by aligning the tab on the motor
housing with the appropriate notch on the rear of the
shoe.
 Slide the shoe back (toward the rear of the tool) to fit the
tab into the notch.
 Push the shoe adjustment lever firmly back into place.
Make sure that the shoe is properly set before starting
the jig saw.
 Reinstall the battery pack.
NOTE: When making a set-up for accurate cuts with
a protractor, or for angles other than the preset 15°
increments, the positive stop notches on the rear of the
shoe are not used.
NOTE: Maintenance information begins on page 8 after French and Spanish language setions.

PLUNGE CUTTING
See Figures 12 - 13, page 10.
WARNING:
To avoid loss of control, broken blades, or damage
to the material being cut, always use extreme
caution when making plunge cuts. We do not
recommend plunge cutting on materials other
than wood.
 Mark the line of cut clearly on the workpiece.
 Set the cutting angle at 0° and the orbital adjustment
knob to 0.
 Drill a pilot hole though any point on the line of cut.
 Using high speed, start the saw and slowly lower the
blade through the pilot hole into the workpiece until the
blade cuts through the wood.
 Do not move the base forward until the blade cuts entirely
through the workpiece and the base is in complete
contact with the workpiece.
 Move the saw forward to complete the opening.
 Use only blades with seven teeth per inch for this type of
cut.
