APPLICATIONS
䡬Cutting various lumber and pocket cutting
䡬Cutting mild steel plate, aluminum plate, and copper
plate
䡬Cutting synthetic resins, such as phenol resin and
vinyl chloride
䡬Cutting thin and soft construction materials
䡬Cutting stainless steel plate (with No. 97 blade)
PRIOR TO OPPERATION
1. Power source
Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms
to the power requirements specified on the product
nameplate.
2. Power switch
Ensure that the power switch is in the OFF position.
If the plug is connected to a receptacle while the
power switch is in the ON position, the power tool
will start operating immediately, which could cause
a serious accident.
3. Extension cord
When the work area is removed from the power
source, use an extension cord of sufficient thickness
and rated capacity. The extension cord should be
kept as short as practicable.
4. Changing blades
(1) Open the lever up to the stop. (Fig. 1-I)
(2) Remove fitted blade.
(3) Insert new blade up to the stop in the balde holder.
(Fig. 1-II)
(4) Close the lever. (Fig. 1-III)
CAUTION:
䡬Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the
plug from the receptacle when changing blades.
䡬Do not open the lever when plunger is moving.
NOTE:
䡬Confirm the protrusions of blade inserted to the
blade holder surely. (Fig. 2)
䡬Confirm the blade located between the groove of
roller. (Fig. 3)
5. Adjusting the blade operating speed
This Jig Saw is equipped with the electric control
circuit which enables stepless speed control. To
adjust the speed, turn the dial shown in Fig. 4.
When the dial is set to “1”, the jig saw operates
at the minimum speed (850 min–1). When the dial
set to “5”, the jig saw operates at the maximum
speed (3000 min–1). Adjust the speed according to
the material to be cut and working efficiency.
CAUTION:
At low speed (dial setting: 1 or 2) do not cut a wood
with a thickness of more than 10 mm or metal with
a thickness of more than 1 mm.
6. 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. 5 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 efficiency. To cut the
material accurately, decrease the orbital operation.
7. 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.
8. Splinter guard
Using the splinter guard when cutting wood
materials will reduce splintering of cut surfaces.
Insert the splinter guard in the space on the base,
and push it completely. (See Fig. 6)
