BLADE ORBIT SELECTOR LEVER
Maximum cutting efficiency can be obtained
by adjusting the blade orbit selector lever to
suit the material being cut.
The following chart will help you determine
which setting to use for your application. This
chart is intended as a guideline only, and test
cuts in scrap material should be performed
first to determine the best setting.

CHIP BLOWER
Your jigsaw is equipped with a two position
chip blower to help keep the cutting line clear
of chips.
By adjusting the chip blower lever the force
of the discharge air may be altered as
follows;
BLOWER SWITCHED ON
For working with wood, plastic
and similar materials that
produce large amounts of
sawdust.
BLOWER SWITCHED OFF
For working with metals and
when cooling agents are used,

FOOTPLATE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT
The footplate may be tilted to allow angle
cuts up to 45° in either direction (Fig. 8).
To adjust footplate, remove dust shroud if
used, loosen the footplate screw and slide
the footplate slightly forward towards the
back of tool, then rotate to desired angle
(Fig. 8).
The detent slots will hold the footplate firmly
at 0°, and there are additional position marks
for 15°, 22.5° 30° and 45° angles.
Intermediate angles may be set with a
protractor (Fig. 8).
After positioning the footplate, securely
tighten the footplate screw (Fig. 8).

TOOL TIPS
Always be certain that smaller workpieces
are securely fastened to a bench or other
support. Larger panels may be held in place
by clamps on a bench or sawhorses.
To begin a cut, clearly mark the cutting line,
and rest the front of the footplate on the work.
Engage the switch, and move the blade into
the work using only enough forward pressure
to keep the blade cutting steadily. Do not
force, as this will not make the saw cut faster;
let the blade do the work.
