1- Minimal orbital action
2- Medium orbital action
3- Maximum orbital action for the most
aggressive cutting:for quickly cutting
plywood and soft material.
Experiment on a piece of scrap
material to determine the optimum orbit
action setting.
SWITCHING LASER/WORK LIGHT ON
AND OFF
This jigsaw is fitted with two forms of
lighting to assist in maintaining accurate
alignment with the cut line. Both can
be switched on and off using combined
laser and work light on/off switch (17).
(Fig.8)
TURN ON THE LED WORK LIGHT
Move the combined switch to the top position to activate the work light.
The LED work light produces broader lighting and is better used in lower lit
conditions.
The mid position switches off the work light.
TURN ON THE LASER
Move the combined switch to the bottom position to activate the laser.
Use the laser to assist in aligning the blade with the cut line during operation
The mid position switches it off.
USING THE LASER SYSTEM
WARNING!
Before proceeding to use the laser line system, ensure that the
Additional Safety Rules for Laser Lights section is read and fully understood.
1. Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without
reflective surfaces, wood or rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright
shiny reflective sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as the
reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator.
2. Mark the line of the cut on the workpiece.
3. Adjust the orbit control level, bevel angle and speed as required.
4. Rest the front edge of the base on the workpiece.
5. Switch on the laser beam using the laser/work light on/off switch.
6. Align the beam with the line on the workpiece.
7. Start the motor by squeezing the trigger switch.
8. Always allow the blade to reach full speed before you begin to cut into the
work piece.
9. Slowly push the saw forward, keeping the red laser light beam on the line
of cut.
10. After completing your cut, release the trigger switch and allow the blade
to come to a complete stop. Do not
remove the saw from the workpiece
while the blade is moving.
11. Switch off the laser beam on
completion of the cut.
LIVE TOOL INDICATOR LIGHT (Fig.9)
The tool has a “POWER ON INDICATOR”
light. This light is always on when the
tool is plugged into a power source.
BLADE STORAGE (Fig.10)
A convenient feature on the saw is the
blade storage compartment (11) located
on the shoe of the saw.
To open: pull the blade storage cover
out. To close: push the cover in with your
thumb or finger.
OPERATION
SWITCHING ON AND OFF (Fig.11)
