Adjusting the orbital operation
(1)
This Jig Saw employs orbital operation which
moves the blade back and forth, as well as up and
down. Set the change knob shown in Fig. 11 to
“0” to eliminate the orbital operation (the blade
moves only up and down). The orbital operation
can be selected in 4 steps from “0” to “
III
”.
(2)
For the hard material, such as a steel plate, etc.,
decrease the orbital operation. For the soft
material, such as lumber, plastic, etc., increase the
orbital operation to increase work efficiency. To
cut the material accurately, decrease the orbital
operation.
7.
Cutting stainless steel plates
This Jig Saw can cut stainless steel plates by using
No. 97 blade. Carefully read “Concerning cutting
of stainless steel plates” for proper operation.
