OPERATION

ORBITAL MOTION

See Figure 7, page 11.

Orbital motion provides faster, more efficient cutting. The 
blade cuts through your work in the upstroke but does not 
drag across your work in the downstroke.

Choose from four orbital adjustment positions for fine to 
aggressive cutting. The higher settings should be used when 
fast cutting in soft material is desired. The lower settings 
should be used when cutting materials with more resistance.

OPTIONAL EDGE GUIDE 

(NOT INcLUDED)

See Figure 8, page 11.

An optional edge guide may be purchased separately. It can 
be used for making crosscuts and rip cuts.

  Remove the battery pack.

  Insert the edge guide through the two slots in the base 

of the saw. 

  Adjust to the desired width and lock in place with the 

edge guide screw.

  Replace the battery pack.

ScROLL cUTTING

See Figure 9, page 11.

Scroll cuts can be made with the jig saw by guiding the direc-
tion of the cut with applied pressure on the handle as shown.

NOTE:

 Using blades specifically designed for scroll cutting will 

reduce stress on the saw and produce better cutting results.

WARNING:

Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in 
broken blades or damage to the material being cut. 
Broken blades could result in serious personal injury.

PLUNGE cUTTING

See Figure 10, page 11.

WARNING:

To avoid loss of control, broken blades, or damage to 
the material being cut, always use extreme caution when 
making plunge cuts. We do not recommend plunge 
cutting on materials other than wood.

  Mark the line of cut clearly on the workpiece.

  Set the cutting angle at 0°. 

  Tilt the saw forward so that it rests on the front edge 

of the base and blade will not come in contact with the 
workpiece when the saw is turned on.

  Make sure the blade is inside the area to be cut.

  Using high speed, start the saw and slowly lower the 

blade into the workpiece until the blade cuts through the 
wood.

  Continue lowering the blade into the workpiece until the 

base rests flat on the work surface, then move the saw 
forward to complete the opening.

  Use only the 7 teeth per inch blade for this type of cut.
