VARIABLE SPEED DIAL
Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
dial. The blade stroke rate may be adjusted
during cutting operation by presetting the dial
on or between any one of the six numbers
(Fig. 5).
Setting SPM rating (strokes per minute)
1-2 Low stroke
3-4 Medium stroke
5-6 High stroke
Higher speed settings are generally used for
fast cutting or when softer cutting materials
such as wood, composite materials, and
plastics. Slower speed settings are generally
used when precision is required or when
cutting harder materials. Materials typically cut
using slower speeds include sheet metal,
conduit, and pipe.
