Note:
Angled cutting, whatever the material,
is always more difficult than general straight
cutting. With angled cutting it is very
important to allow the saw blade to do the
work. Do not ‘force’ the blade. A trial run on
unwanted material to determine the best
combination of blade feed and speed is
recommended.
Return to the factory setting when angled
cutting is completed. Recheck the security of
the blade.
CUTTING CIRCLES OR CURVES
When cutting curves, particularly tight
curves, start with a reasonably slow speed,
and gradually increase the speed until the
optimum performance is achieved. Do not
force the blade, as in curved cutting this can
lead to the blade deflection, and possible
blade breakage.
To cut a circle from a workpiece:
1. Mark out the circle in the required postion.
2. Drill a ø12 mm hole near the centre of the
hole.
3. Insert the jigsaw blade into the ø12 mm
hole. Ensure that there is clearance between
the blade and the workpiece.
4. Begin cutting towards the outside of the
circle, slowly in a spiral fashion, until the
blade is following the required cutting line.
5. Advance the jigsaw slowly to avoid cutting
a slanted surface or experiencing blade
deflection.
BLADES
Choose blades carefully. Use only a blade
that is suitable for this machine and for the
material to be cut.
The ability of the jigsaw to follow curves,
provide smooth finishes or faster cutting is
directly related to the type of blade employed.
