Specific Safety Rules
Only use blades in perfect condition.
Keep the shoe flat on the work piece.
Do not put pressure on the saw so that it will slow down.
Always switch off before you put the jig saw down.
Disconnect the saw from the power supply when it is not in use, before cleaning and changing saw blades.
The unit should only be used as a hand-held tool and must never be fixed in an inverted position for use as a
bench saw.
Advice to wear a dust mask.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock.

the support and move slowly in cutting direction.
Parallel guide
Use the supplied parallel guide to saw parallel to the edge of the workpiece.
1. Loose the finger screws on the front of the base plate.
2. Insert the parallel guide from the side in the slot in the base plate.
3. Lock the parallel guide in the required position with the finger screws.
4. Adjust the required cutting width in centimeter by putting the corresponding value on the scale by the
laser on the base plate.
5. Tighten the finger screws with your finger.
Blow button (Fig.5)
The blow button, it marked “off↔on” under the button.
Fig.5
The tool is in blow mode when the blow button is in the “on” position. The blow function is activated by

Maintenance and Service
WARNING:
Before any work on the machine, pull the mains plug from the power source.
Only use accessories and spare parts recommended by the manufacturer. If the equipment should fail some
day in spite of our quality controls and your maintenance, only have it repaired by an authorised electrician.
If the carbon brushes need to be replaced, have this done by a qualified repair person (always replace the
two brushes at the same time.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service anent in order to avoid
a hazard. Disconnect from the power supply immediately if the supply cord is damaged.
Clean
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine and ventilation slots clean.
Clean dust and debris from vents, Keep the tool handles clean and free of oil or grease, Use only mild soap
and a damp cloth to clean your tool since certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and
other insulated parts. Never use flammable or combustible solvents around tools.
Speed adjustment
The speed can be set with the knob up on the tool. There are six different speeds. Position 1 sets the lowest
speed, and position 6 the highest. Hold the handle and turn the speed control to the required position with
your thumb.
Setting the Pendulum
For soft materials (wood, plastic etc.) set the oscillation to position 2 or 3.
For sharp-edged cuts, set the oscillation to position 0 or 1.
For medium-hard materials (hard wood, aluminum etc.) set the oscillation to a suitable position for the
application.
For thin workpiece, set the oscillation to position 0 or 1.
For hard materials (steel etc.) set the oscillation to position 0.
For round cuts, set the oscillation to position 0.
Mounting the saw blade (Fig.2)
Disconnect the tool from the mains. A special handle ensures quick
mounting.
Mount the saw blade
1. Push the handle and keep the holder in open position.
2. Insert the saw blade up to the end into the saw blade holder and
release the handle. Make sure the saw blade is touching the guide
roller.
3. Slightly pull the saw blade to ensure firm fit.
Remove the saw blade
Push the handle and keep the holder in open position, then pull out
the saw blade.
Attention: The saw blade will become very hot during cutting due to friction. Pay attention for that when
removing the saw blade.
Protect yourself with protective gloves if necessary.
Adjusting the base (Fig.3)
For mitering and sawing near edges.
For miter and bevel cuts you can swivel the base by up to 450 in either direction after undoing the two screws
on the bottom. The angles 15°, 30° and 45° are marked but you can adjust the saw to any angle between
these markings as required.
Fig.3
To adjust the cutting angle, loose the two screws until you can just about move the base and adjust to the
required angle, then re-tighten the two screws.
To enable you to saw right up to the edge, the base can be pushed backward. Loose the two
screws underneath and push the base back. Then re-tighten the two screws.
It is prohibited to use the machine on asbestos materials. Please note the accident prevention regulations in
force in you country.
