Straight line or orbital cutting action
Conventional jig saws cut with a straight line action, that is, the blade moves only up and down in a straight line. Your saw also cuts in this manner but, for softer workpieces, an orbital cutting action can be selected. Soft workpieces like wood and plastic permit deep penetration of indivi- dual saw teeth. The orbital action thrusts the blade forward on the cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed over conventional jig saws. Harder workpieces like metal should be cut using the straight line cutting action or a very low orbital setting. To select straight line or orbital cutting, adjust the number on the saw.
