WARNING! In case the sound pressure level exceeds the value of 85.0 dB(A), wear
adequate hearing protection to avoid damage to your hearing!
7. OPERATION
Laser beam adjustment
Transport, handling and heavy use can affect the precision of the laser beam. The laser beam
itself can be easily adjusted.
Loosen the lower Philips screws on the front or at the side of the machine by a few turns.
Hold the jig saw, fitted with a saw blade, against a straightedge or perfectly straight plank.
Check whether the laser beam runs dead straight along the edge of the straightedge or plank.
If this is not case, then adjust the laser beam by slightly turning the laser holder.
Once the correct adjustment has been made, retighten the Philips screws.
Note: When sawing a bevel, the cut will no longer be aligned with the notch in the sole
plate.
Note: Whatever the bevel angle, the saw cut will always follow the laser beam.
Working with a jig saw
WARNING! The saw is exclusively dedicated to home or hobby use. The manufacturer and
importer do not recommend using this tool in extreme conditions and excessive loads. Any
kind of further requests must be the subject of agreement between the manufacturer and
customer.
The tool is an electronic speed controlled, pendulum action jig saw. The adjustable speed and
3-stage pendulum action gives an enhanced cutting performance and optimum curve-cutting
action, saving the blade from wear. Before using the jig saw, read the instructions thoroughly
and acquaint yourselves with its features.
Make sure that the working area is clear of all obstacles particularly on the reverse side of the
cut. If you use the saw with one hand always ensure your free hand is away from the cutting
area.
Note: It is recommended that the mains plug is removed from any socket or extension lead
prior to ANY adjustment or service being undertaken to avoid accidental start up of the
product.
