Anleitung Zusammenfassung
Push the on/off switch (2) forward and up over the latching ramp to lock the switch on (fig C). To turn off the tool, press the back of the switch and lift it over the latching ramp (fig D). CAUTION. Allow the blade to come to a complete standstill before setting the jigsaw down. Blade guard The blade guard (6) should always be in position when operating the jigsaw. It can be removed to allow easier access when changing blades (fig E). Blade guide The grooved disc blade guide (7) is spring loaded so that it can accomodate varying jigsaw blade widths. It supports the back edge of the blade, keeping it running straight and helping to prevent the blade from bending which improves the accuracy of the cut and reduces the chance of blade breakage (fig F). Note. Depending on the position of the pendulum lever, the blade guide remains stationary (non-pendulum) or oscillates backwards and forwards, causing the blade to cut with a pendulum action. Anti splintering insert Because jigsaws cut on the up stroke, the top layer of wood, particularly plywood, tends to tear and splinter thus obscuring the line of the cut and causing a rough edge. The splinter insert supports the wood fibres on the top layer of the workpiece and greatly reduces the splintering effect. 1. With the power off, slide the anti splinter insert (23) up to the jigsaw blade (fig Ga & Gb). Ensure the jigsaw’s pendulum lever (5) is switched to zero (ie. Position 1). E A F B C Ga D Gb 2. With a blade fitted move the variable speed dial (8) to number 3 (low speed). 3. Apply pressure to the front of the anti splinter guard on the edge of a work surface until it is flat with the front edge of the shoe plate (18) (fig Ha & Hb). Changing a blade Note. This jigsaw is fitted with a tool-free mechanism for fast and simple “T” and “U” shank blade removal and fitting. WARNING. Always ensure that the saw is switched off and plug is removed from the power point before changing blades or making any adjustments. Removing the blade Remove the blade guard (6) to afford better access to the blade clamp. Push the tool-free blade change control (17) upwards towards the top of the jigsaw, making sure that your fingers do not contact the teeth of the blade (fig I). With the blade change control (17) in its uppermost position, remove the blade by pulling it downwards towards the base of the jigsaw. Refitting a new blade Push the blade change control (17) to its uppermost position and slide the new blade into the locating groove in the blade clamp with the teeth pointing forward. Make sure that the back of the blade is located and supported by the blade guide (7) (fig I). Release the blade change control (17) to secure the blade firmly in place. Reposition the blade guard (6). Replace the plug and run the jigsaw under no load to check that it runs smoothly and the blade is secure before using it to cut any materials. Blade storage To gain access to the blade storage areas (24), open the release tabs (25) located at each corner of the rear of the shoe plate (18) (fig J). Pendulum adjustment Note. The blade can be set to produce a front to rear swinging (pendulum) action when cutting. This can increase the jigsaws cutting efficiency, depending on the material being cut. The pendulum action is functional on pendulum lever positions 1, 2 & 3 – the higher the setting the greater the pendulum action. Note.Increasing the swing of the pendulum action results in a rougher finish to the cutting edge. The scrolling control knob (4) must be positioned forward (with the arrow on the scrolling knob and jigsaw housing aligned) before the pendulum can be engaged (fig K). Rotate the pendulum lever (5) (fig L) to the position that best suits the job, as follows: Position S. SCROLLING – for the cutting of all materials and with manual 360° rotation of the blade using the scrolling controlling knob (4). Position 0. SMOOTH - for cutting mild steel / soft materials / all materials with normal up and down blade motion with minimal splintering. Hb Ha J K L I Position 1. LOW – Minimal pendulum action for cutting most metal. Position 2. MEDIUM – Medium pendulum action for cutting plastics, and hardwoods. Position 3. FAST – Maximum pendulum action for the highest orbital action and faster cutting in plywood and soft woods. Scrolling control Note. The scrolling feature allows the blade to be rotated 360° for maximum blade control when cutting curves and intricate work. Ensure you use a blade specifically intended for curve cutting (eg. scroll cutting blade). Do not place excess force when turning the blade as it may break. Set the pendulum lever (5) to Position “S” (fig M). Note. The scrolling feature will not operate if the lever is positioned at 0,1,2 or 3. During operation place one hand firmly on the hand grip, place your other hand on the scrolling control knob (4) and rotate it - using it to guide the blade along your cutting line (fig N). To disengage the scroll function, to enable standard or pen...
