Selecting the saw blade
The jigsaw is supplied with 4 saw blades, each with different teeth. the
profile and the teeth vary according to the material that you want to saw. A
fine tooth will give you a smooth and precise saw cut. Use a narrow profile if
you want to saw curves or figures.
The maximum saw capacity in wood varies to approximately 85 mm with the
enclosed saw blades. With special saw blades, this machine can saw pieces up
to 100 mm in thickness.
To select the right saw, proceed as follows:
•
First of all try a saw blade with coarse teeth.
•
If you don't get a smooth and precise saw cut, try a saw blade with a finer
tooth.
•
For plastic, aluminium and steel always use a saw blade with a very fine
tooth.
In general you will work faster but less precisely with a coarse tooth than
with a fine tooth.
For an optimum result always make sure the saw blade is sharp. The jigsaw is
suitable for all commercially available saw blades.
