6. Changing blades

(1) Pull the lever up to the stop. (Fig. 2-I)

(2) Remove fitted blade

(3) Insert new blade up to the stop in the balde holder. (Fig. 2-II)

(4) Release the lever. (Fig. 2-III)

CAUTION

○ Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug from the receptacle when changing blades.

○ Do not touch the lever when plunger is moving.

NOTE:

Confirm the protrusions of blade inserted to the blade holder surely. (Fig. 3)

Confirm the blade located between the groove of roller. (Fig. 4)

7.Adjusting the blade operating speed

The jig saw is equipped with the electric control circuit which enables stepless speed control. To adjust the speed, turn the dial shown in Fig. 5. When the dial is set to “1”, the jig saw operates at the minimum speed (850 /min.). When the dial set to “5”, the jig saw operates at the maximum speed (3,000/min.). Adjust the speed according to the material to be cut and working eciency.

CAUTION

● At low speed (dial setting: 1 or 2) do not cut a wood with a thickness of more than 5/16" (8 mm) or metal with a thickness of more than 1/32" (1 mm).

8. Adjusting the orbital operation

(1) This Jig Saw employs orbital operation which moves the blade back and forth, as well as up and down. Set the change knob shown in Fig. 6 to “0” to eliminate the orbital operation (the blade moves only up and down). The orbital operation can be selected in 4 steps from “0” to “III”.

(2) For the hard material, such as a steel plate, etc., decrease the orbital operation. For the soft material, such as lumber, plastic, etc., increase the orbital operation to increase work eciency. To cut the material accurately, decrease the orbital operation.

9.Cutting stainless steel plates

This Jig Saw can cut stainless steel plates by using No. 97 blade. Carefully read “Concerning cutting of stainless steel plates” for proper operation.
