OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

VARIABLE-SPEED DIAL (

fig 6

)

Your jigsaw is equipped with a variable-
speed dial. The optimal jigsaw cutting 
speed or stroke rate depends on the 
material being cut, the type of blade 
being used, and the feed rate preferred 
by the operator. At the “0” position, there 
is no blade action. The “5” position results 
in the highest speed. Select the speed 
that is appropriate for the material and 
the project at hand.

The best speed for a particular application is largely determined by experience, 
though, as a general rule, slower speeds are for denser materials and faster 
speeds for softer materials.

TRIGGER SWITCH AND LOCK-ON 
BUTTON (

fig 7

)

1.  Connect the power cord of your jigsaw 

to a standard household power outlet.

2.  To turn the saw ON, depress the on/off 

trigger switch.

3.  To turn the tool OFF, release the 

trigger switch.

4.  To lock the on/off trigger switch in the 

“on” position, press the trigger switch and hold it on, then press in the lock-on 
button. Release the trigger switch and then release the lock-on button. The lock-
on button allows the operator to keep the jigsaw running without squeezing the 
trigger switch. This feature is convenient for continuous sawing applications.

5.  To release the lock-on button, press and release the trigger switch.

6.  The speed can be adjusted from the minimum to maximum SPM as set on 

the variable speed dial and the pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply 
more pressure to increase the speed and release pressure to decrease speed. 
Regardless of the pressure applied on the trigger, the tool speed will not 
exceed the maximum speed setting selected on the variable-speed dial.

NOTICE:

 When the jigsaw is used at low speed settings for an extended 

length of time, the motor temperature will rise due to slower speeds of the 
internal cooling fan. In such cases, it is necessary to occasionally run the tool at 
full speed for a few minutes to keep the motor running at high efficiency.
