Place the tool with the front edge of the base plate on to the workpiece without
the saw blade touching the workpiece and switch on. For machines with stroke
rate control, select the maximum stroke rate. Firmly hold the machine against
the workpiece and by tilting the tool, slowly plunge the saw blade into the
workpiece.
When the base plate fully lays on the workpiece, continue sawing along the
desired cutting line.
2. Sawing in metal
Use a high speed setting for cutting soft metals (aluminum, copper, brass, mild
steel, galvanized. pipe, conduit sheet metal, etc.).
Use lower speed to cut plastics, tile, laminate, hard metals, and cast.
When sawing in thin sheet metal, a thin wooden board should be placed under
the metal and sawn together with the metal to prevent the metal from bending.
Note that the jigsaw must be able to move freely before it will cut into the
material. Do not push the jigsaw in the direction of the cut during the sawing. To
simplify the sawing and make the metal saw blade last longer, apply a little oil to
the cut.
Attention!
For the working of smaller or thin work pieces, use a stable foundation or a saw
table. Before sawing with saw blades in wood, particle board, building materials,
etc., check these for foreign objects such as nails, screws, or similar. If required,
remove foreign objects.
Maintenance and Clean
Attention! Always remove the battery before carrying out any work on the
machine.
To clean, always use a dry or moist, but not wet, towel. Many cleaning agents
contain chemical substances which may cause damage to the plastic parts of
the machine. Therefore do not use any strong or inflammable cleaners such as
petrol, paint thinner, turpentine or similar cleaning agents.
Always keep air ventilation holes free of dust deposits to prevent overheating.
