Selecting the cutting action
►
Fig.3:

Cutting action changing lever
This tool can be operated with an orbital or a straight
line (up and down) cutting action. The orbital cutting
action thrusts the jig saw blade forward on the cutting
stroke and greatly increases cutting speed.
To change the cutting action, just turn the cutting action
changing lever to the desired cutting action position. Refer
to the table to select the appropriate cutting action.

Speed adjusting dial
►
Fig.5:
1.
Speed adjusting dial
The tool speed can be adjusted by turning the speed
adjusting dial. You can get the highest speed at 5 and
the lowest speed at 1.
Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the
workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed
may differ with the type or thickness of the workpiece. In
general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces
faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced.
Workpiece
Number
Wood
4 - 5
Mild steel
3 - 5
Stainless steel
3 - 4
Aluminum
3 - 5
Plastics
1 - 4
NOTICE:
When changing the speed dial from "5"
to "1", turn the dial counterclockwise. Do not turn
the dial clockwise forcibly.
Electronic function
The tool is equipped with the electronic functions for
easy operation.
•
Soft start
The soft-start function minimizes start-up shock,
and makes the tool start smoothly.
•
Soft no-load rotation
To reduce the vibration and align the jig saw blade
with the cutting line easily, the tool automatically
reduces the rotation speed until the tool starts cut-
ting the workpiece when the speed adjusting dial
is set at 2 or higher. Once the tool starts cutting
the workpiece, the tool speed reaches the preset
speed and keeps the speed until the tool stops.
NOTE:
When the temperature is low, this function
may not be available.
