feedback system provides a "soft start",
which will reduce the stresses that
occur from a high torque start. With
both JS470EB and JS470E, the system
also maintains the selected speed under
load for maximum efficiency.

application. This chart is intended as a
guideline only, and test cuts in scrap
material should be performed first to
determine the best setting.

Chip Blower
Your jig saw is equipped with a two
position chip blower to help keep the
cutting line clear of chips.
By adjusting the chip blower lever the
force of the discharge air may be altered
as follows;

Footplate Angle Adjustment
The footplate may be tilted to allow
angle cuts up to 45° in either direction
(Fig. 6).
To adjust footplate, remove dust shroud
if used, loosen the footplate screw with
5mm hex key and slide the footplate
slightly forward towards the back of tool,
then rotate to desired angle (Fig. 6).
The detent slots will hold the footplate
f i r m l y a t 0 ° o r 4 5 ° , a n d t h e r e a r e
additional position marks for 15°, 22.5°
and 30° angles. Intermediate angles may
be set with a protractor (Fig. 6).
After positioning the footplate, securely
tighten the footplate screw (Fig. 6).
