Making Bevel Cuts; Dust Extraction; Guide Bar - Westfalia M1Q-80 Bedienungsanleitung

blade does not execute any pendulum movement; the biggest pendulum
movement is at level II. When moving downwards, the saw
blade is pushed backwards to ease the throw-off of the splints.
Because of this the cutting speed for longitudinal sections rises
and less power is needed while sawing. Furthermore, the
lifetime of a saw blade is increased.
For cutting metal or dense particle board set the
pendulum to 0,
for plastics and plywood use setting I,
and for chipboard hard- and softwood use setting II.
Note: Because of the additional vertical movement, the cutting edges will be torn
out more as if working without pendulum. The surface coatings of wood plate
especially tend to fray because of their refractory structure when working with
additional pendulum.

Making Bevel Cuts

You can make bevel cuts to 45° with this saw if you angle
the base plate.
1. First, loosen the two Allen Head screws (12) which
can be seen in the central opening of the base plate.
2. After loosening, push the base plate slightly back
until the metal pin in the housing disengages from the
base plate. Now you can adjust the base plate to the
angle desired and you can fix it in that position by
pushing forward and tightening the Allen head
screws.

Dust Extraction

The jig saw can be connected with a dust extractor or a
vacuum cleaner via the included adaptor pipe. The suction
shows the best results when the Perspex cap (11) is put on.
Always use a dust removal, if possible, or at least a dust
mask for your own safety.

Guide Bar

Use the bar delivered for a cutting guide parallel to a wood edge.
