CUTTING METAL
When cutting any metal a suitable cutting
lubricant/coolant should be used. Cast Iron and
Brass can be cut without a cutting lubricant.
Always use a blade that is capable of cutting
metal, and secure the workpiece securely, if
practicable, in a vice or similar clamping device.
WARNING: When cutting metal the Cutting Action
Selection Lever must be set to the ‘0’ position.
CUTTING CIRCLES OR CURVES
When cutting curves, particularly tight curves,
start with a reasonably slow speed, and gradually
increase the speed until the optimum performance
is achieved. Do not force the blade, as in curved
cutting this can lead to the blade deection, and
possible blade breakage.
To cut a circle from a workpiece:
• Mark out the circle in the required postion.
• Drill a Ø12 mm hole near the centre of the circle.
• Insert the jigsaw blade into the ø12 mm hole.
Ensure that there is clearance between the
blade and the workpiece.
• Begin cutting towards the outside of the circle,
slowly in a spiral fashion, until the blade is
following the required cutting line.
• Advance the jigsaw slowly to avoid cutting a
slanted surface or experiencing blade deection.
ANGLED CUTTING
Angled cutting, whatever the material, is always
more difcult than general straight cutting. With
angled cutting it is very important to allow the saw
blade to do the work. Do not ‘force’ the blade. A
trial run on unwanted material to determine the
best combination of blade feed and speed is
recommended.
Return to the factory setting when angled cutting
is completed. Recheck the security of the blade.
BLADES
Choose blades carefully. Use only a blade that is
suitable for this machine and for the material to
be cut.
The ability of any jigsaw to follow curves, provide
smooth nishes or faster cutting is directly related
to the type of blade employed.
MAINTENANCE
Your Evolution Jigsaw requires no major additional
lubrication or maintenance. Occasionally apply
a drop of light machine oil to the blade guide
spindle. There are no user serviceable parts in
your Evolution Jigsaw.
Keep the tool clean, but do not use chemical
cleaners which may damage the plastic parts.
Clean with a dry cloth. Ensure that the motor
ventilation slots are kept clean.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Waste electrical products should not be disposed
of with household waste. Please recycle where
facilities exist. Check with your Local Authority or
retailer for recycling advice.
