GENERAL CUTTING
– cont’d
WARNING
: Keep hands and
fingers away from between the motor
housing and blade holder. Do not reach
underneath workpiece while jigsaw is
running.
3. Rest the front of the jigsaw base on
the workpiece and align cutting edge
of the blade with the cutting line on
your workpiece (Fig. 12). Make sure
the power cord is out of your way and
not in the path the blade will follow.
4. While firmly gripping the jigsaw, and
with the blade NOT in contact with the
surface to be cut, start the jigsaw by
pressing the lock-off button and
squeezing the trigger switch.
5. Once the jigsaw has reached the
desired speed, gradually bring the
moving blade into contact with the
workpiece at the appropriate location.
NOTE:
Apply enough downward pressure
to keep the jigsaw steady and only enough
forward pressure to keep the blade cutting
freely.
CAUTION:
Do not force the
jigsaw. Use only enough force to keep
the blade cutting. Excessive pressure
on the blade will cause it to bend and
twist, which may result in breaking the
blade.
BEVEL CUTTING
Bevel cutting angles may be adjusted from
0° to 45° either left or right. To adjust the
bevel angle, refer to Fig. 5.
