6. BLADE FITTING (See Fig. E)
NOTE: Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or
maintenance.
To open the blade holder rotate the ring clockwise (Jigsaw upside down) and hold in position.
Then fully insert the blade into the blade holder slot with blade teeth facing forward and release
the ring, which will self rotate and clamp over the top of the blade. Push the blade into the blade
holder again to ensure it is locked in position. Ensure the edge of the blade is located in the
groove of the blade guide. To remove a blade, holds the blade and rotate the blade holder ring
clockwise then lift out the blade (blade could be spring ejected).
NOTE: For best cutting results, ensure that you use
a blade suited to the material and cut quality you
need.
WARNING: Blade teeth are very sharp.
- When the holder is rotated, the blade will be ejected.
- Aim the machine so that the blade is ejected away
from yourself and other people.
