BLADE INSTALLATION
Caution: Before installing or changing a blade, be sure the saw is unplugged from the power supply.
1. Loosen the two blade lock bolts (use hex key supplied) enough
for a blade to be removed or inserted. Note: there is a position
notch in the blade cover and the back plate to which the blade
clip is screwed.
2. Insert blade in slot with teeth facing forward. The blade’s top
should be inserted far enough to touch blade clip.
3. While blade is in fitted slot and touching blade clip top, tighten
the blade lock bolts securely.
OPERATING YOUR JIG SAW
BLADE GUIDE USAGE
The blade guide is a part of the base plate and has a metal roller guide to support the saw blade. When the
back of the blade being used is straight, the blade guide metal roller should be positioned to slightly touch the
blade. If the back of the blade is slanted, the guide should be position slightly behind the slide the base plate
forward or backward until the guide is in the desired position. Now, tighten the two base plate bolts.
Note: the roller should be lubricated frequently when cutting metals.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROL
The variable speed control is a 6-position roll switch located on the top front of the handle. By rotating the
switch from one to six, the blade speed can be set from 500 to 3000 SPM. Stroke rate should set for specific
material being cut.
WARNING: Before plugging your saw into a power source, press the trigger to ensure the trigger
has not been locked in the on position.
After checking that blade will not contact anything, press the trigger and hold it until the blade
reaches the desired speed. Then put the base plate on the material to be cut and align it on the mark of the
desired starting point. Push the saw slowly into the area to be cut. Continue to follow your cut lines until the
task is complete. Note: Be sure the base plate of your jig saw is in contact with the material being cut through
the operation.
Failure to keep the plate in contact with the work can result in broken blades.
