Insertion and Removal of Blades
Before performing any adjustments ensure
the tool has been switched off and is
disconnected from any power supply.
Turn the jigsaw upside down, and slide
The dust shield towards the shoe as far as
it will go. This will aid access to both
blade securing bolts. Remove the allen
key from the holder on the tool-end of the
power cord. Use the key to loosen the two
blade securing bolts which can be
accessed through the open slots in the
dust shield. Insert the shaft end of the
blade through the base of the shoe into
the blade holder. Ensure the teeth of the
blade face towards the front of the saw
and that the back edge (flat edge) of the
blade is secured with in the guide rollers groove. When the blade is
inserted as far as it will go secure it in place by tightening the bolts
clockwise. Return the dust shield into position prior to operating
the jigsaw.
Dust Extraction
With the adaptor supplied the tool can be attached to most portable
vacuum cleaners. To utilise this facility, connect the dust extraction
adaptor to the dust extraction port at the rear of the jigsaw. Fit the
vacuum hose in or over the adaptor, depending on the hose size.
Note: The dust extraction system will only work when a house hold
vacuum cleaner or dust extraction machine is connected to the tool as
described above.
