7 – Installation and setting
Pendulum
The adjustable pendulum
movement (P) of the saw blade
(0 for hard materials, up to 3 for
soft materials) improves the adjustment
of the machine to the material being
processed. And at the same time, it
reduces wear on the saw blade,
improves the rejection of shavings and
considerably reduces the formation of
heat caused by friction.The activation of
the pendulum function may also be
carried out when the machine is already
running. Recommendations regarding
the machine settings can be found on
Figure 4.
Inserting the saw blade
CAUTION! Unplug from the
power source.
Loosen both of the holding screws
on the saw blade holder (12) using
the hexagonal wrench (11) (Figure 2).
Slot the saw blade into the groove and
push it in as far as it will go, ensuring
that the spine fits well into the groove of
the guide roll (9). Tighten the holding
screws up again.
Dust removal
The extraction hose of the
household vacuum should
be fitted to the extraction
opening (7) on the jigsaw or to the
supplied adapter (2). Push this, along
with the rubber seal, firmly into the
guide groove of the extraction opening
and fix with a gentle turn. The drawn
down cutting protection element (6) will
improve the efficiency of the dust
removal process.
Mitre/bevelled cuts
The saw shoe (10) is set to
the middle position (O°) when
the machine leaves the
factory. To set it for mitre or bevelled
cuts, loosen the holding screw of the
shoe with the adjustment wrench
(Figure 3) and push the shoe forwards
from the rest position. Set the cutting
angle (8) by turning the to the right or
left. The angles 0°, 15°, 30° and 45° are
marked but intermediate values may
also be selected. Tighten the holding
screw up again. When carrying out cuts
at an angle, push the cutting protection
element (6) up as far as it will go.
8 – Operation
Insert mains plug into an outlet
• ON: Press switch (1) and hold.
• OFF: Release switch (1).
• Continuous operation ON: Press
switch (1), actuate lock knob (2) and
lock in place.
• Continuous operation OFF: Press
switch (1) again - lock knob jumps out
of locking device and release.
9 – Mode of operation
Sawing
Do not force the saw; this causes the
saw blade to overheat and bend and/or
break. If material to be cut is thin, place
