for longitudinal sections rises and less power is needed while sawing. Further-
more, the lifetime of a saw blade is increased.
For Cutting
Metal set the pendulum stroke to 0 or 1.
Core board, plywood and plastics set the pendulum stroke to 1 or 2.
Hard- and softwood and particle and flake boards set the pendulum
stroke to 1, 2 or 3.
The harder the material to be cut is the smaller the pendulum stroke can be and
the softer the material is the larger the pendulum stroke should be set.
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 internal hex 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 teeth 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 internal hex head screws.
Dust Extraction
The jig saw can be connected with a dust extractor or a vacuum cleaner via the
included adaptor pipe. Insert the adaptor and secure it by turning counter-
clockwise. Always use a dust removal, if possible, or at least a dust mask for your
own safety.
Parallel Guide
Use the parallel guide (9) delivered for a cutting guide parallel to a wood edge.
1. To install the parallel bar, slide it through the mounting latches (10) in the
base plate. With the centimetre scale on the guide bar you can precisely set
the distance between the edge and the saw blade.
2. With the screws in the base plate the guide bar can now be secured.
