INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE HANDLING
1. Make sure that the tool is only connected to the voltage marked on
the name plate.
2. Never use the tool if its cover or any bolts are missing. If the cover or
bolts have been removed, replace them prior to use. Maintain all
parts in good working order.
3. Always secure tools when working in elevated positions.
4. Never touch the blade, drill bit, grinding wheel or other moving parts
during use.
5. Never start a tool when its rotating component is in contact with the
work piece.
6. Never lay a tool down before its moving parts have come to a
complete stop.
7. ACCESSORIES : The use of accessories or attachments other than
those recommended in these instructions might present a hazard.
8. REPLACEMENT PARTS : When servicing use only identical

JIG SAW SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Use blades suitable for the material to be cut for efficient and safe
operation.
Make sure the saw blade is tightly secured, as described in the
operation instructions.
2. Excessive pressure and bending while cutting may break the blade.
3. Cutting with the body of the tool fixed in a vice is very dangerous.
4. It is extremely dangerous to point the cutting surface towards any
person.
5. Use safety equipment. Always wear a dust mask.

NOISE BUILD-UP
Noise (sound pressure level) in the workplace can exceed 85 dB (A). in
this case, sound insulation and hearing protection measures must be
taken by the operator.
The noise level of this power tool is measured in accordance with IEC
59 CO11,IEC 704,DIN 45 635 Part 21,NFS 31-031 (84/537/EWG).
BLADE INSTALLATION (Fig. 1)
BE SURE TO DISCONNECT THE PLUG FROM THE POWER
SOURCE BEFORE INSTALLING THE BLADE.
1. Loosen the set screw(1) by using the Hex. wrench key (2).
2. Insert the blade(3) completely into the spindle slot.
3. Tighten the set screw securely.
NOTE!
Check that the back of saw blade enters the groove of the roller
guide (4).
ORBITAL ACTION (Fig. 2)
T o obtain the best cutting action in various types of material, it is
necessary to be able to adjust the orbital action of the saw blade. This
tool has a selector dial on the side of the housing.
Selections range from 0 for straight reciprocating blade action to 3 for
largest orbit of blade.
When cutting into wood and plastic or other soft materials, a large swing
is required, i.e. position 1, 2 or 3.
For steel and similar hard materials, the cutting action should not be as
great, so position 0 should be used.
However, if a sharp and precise cutting surface is required for soft
materials, then position 0 may also be used.
It is also intended for thin materials, as well as for knife or rasp work.
SWITCH (Fig. 3)
This tool is started and stopped by depressing and releasing the switch
(5).
For continuous operation, press the lock button (6) on the side of the
switch while switch is depressed. Depress again to release the lock.
(JSE-60A)
With the use of the electronic control circuit,the speed can be freely
adjusted within the range of 1,000 to 3,000min
selected from the six-step speed adjusting dial(7).
(JS-60AV)
This tool permits speeds of 0-3,000 min
adjustments while running.
Allows operation at desired speed.
The general rules for cutting speed apply: the harder the material, the
lower the speed :the softer the material, the higher the speed.
OPERATINGS
NEVER COVER THE AIR VENTS SINCE THEY MUST ALWAYS BE
OPEN FOR PROPER MOTOR COOLING.
STARTING
For accurate cutting, hold the tool at a right angles to the work.
-1
Hold the base of the tool in firm contact with the work.
ARC CUTTING (Fig. 4)
In cases of small circle or arc cutting, use a lower cutting speed than for
ordinary straight cutting.
(NOTE)
Too much pressure may break the blade when cutting in a circular motion.
METAL CUTTING
A cutting oil or emulsion should be used when cutting steel, and a turbine
oil should be used for non-metallic materials like aluminum.
