It is essential that you read the instructions in this manual before operating this machine. Subject to technical modifications. English 3. PERSONAL SAFETY a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g. If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards. GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS WARNING Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool. 1. WORK AREA a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c. Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. 2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f. If operating power tools in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock. 4. POWER TOOL USE AND CARE a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that can not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c. Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are 1 English dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools. f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from intended could result in a hazardous situation. responsible person must be provided to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Keep children and visitors away. Visitors should wear safety glasses and be kept a safe distance from work area. Do not let visitors contact tool or extension cord. Complies with AS/NZS 60745. Recommended for the use of a residual current device with a rated residual current of 30 mA or less. SAFETY RULES LASER GUIDE The laser guide radiation used in saw is Class 2M with maximum <5mW and 650nm wavelengths. These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause flash blindness. WARNING 5. SERVICE a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. DO NOT stare directly at the laser beam. A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam, please observe all safety rules as follows: The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. SPECIAL SAFETY RULES It is advised to wear a dusk mask. Never aim the beam at any person or an object other than the work piece. Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed cutter may engage the surface leading to possible loss of control and serious injury. The laser beam shall not be deliberately aimed at personnel and shall be prevented from being directed towards the eye of a person for longer than 0.25s. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy work piece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood or rough coated surfaces are acceptable. Bright shiny reflective sheet steel or the like is not suitable for laser use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator. If the replacement of the supply cord is necessary, this has to be done by the manufacturer or his agent in order to avoid a safety hazard. Do not change the laser guide assembly with a different type. Repair must only be carried out by the laser manufacturer or an authorised agent. This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may use this tool. If you loan someone this tool, loan them these instructions also. LASER RADIATION DO NOT STARE INTO THE BEAM OR VIEW DIRECTLY WITH OPTICAL INSTRUMENTS CLASS 2M LASER PRODUCT This appliance is not intended for use by young children or infirm persons.

Failure to do so could result in accidental starting of your saw resulting in possible serious injury. Also, do not lock the trigger on jobs where your saw may need to be stopped suddenly. Max cutting capacity Wood 85 mm Steel 8 mm TRANSPARENT GUARD See Figure 3. For your protection, a transparent guard has been included with the saw. It is used to shield wood particles from the eyes. The transparent guard is attached by placing it in front of the blade area of the base and snapping it into the tabs on the sides of the saw base. For removal, simply pull the tap of the transparent guard. Make sure the saw is unplugged before installation and removal. NOTE: The transparent guard can only be used for straight cutting. FEATURES KNOW YOUR SAW Before attempting to use your saw, familiarize yourself with all operating features and safety requirements. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION Your saw has a precision built electric motor. It should be connected only to a power supply of the type specified by its rating plate. Do not operate this tool on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause a loss of power and overheating. If your tool does not operate when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply. TO INSTALL BLADES See Figure 3 - 4. Unplug the tool. WARNING WARNING Do not allow familiarity with tools to make you careless. Remember that a careless fraction of a second is sufficient to inflict severe injury. Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious injury. Turn the tool upside down. OPERATION Pull the tap of the transparent guard. Rotate the quick release lever counter-clockwise and hold in position. SWITCH See Figure 1. Insert the saw blade into the groove in the roller guide, making sure the back of the saw blade is properly positioned in the groove. NOTE: Only T-shank saw blades can be used. To turn your saw ON, depress the switch. Release trigger switch to turn your saw OFF. LOCK-ON BUTTON Push the saw blade into the blade clamp as far as it will go. See Figure 1. Your saw is equipped with a lock-on feature, which is convenient when continuous cutting for extended periods of time is required. To lock-on, depress the trigger switch, push in and hold the lock-on button located on the side of the handle, then release trigger switch. Release lock-on button and your saw will continue running. To release the lock, depress the trigger switch and release. If you have the lock-on feature engaged during use and your saw becomes disconnected from power supply, Release the quick release lever. Install the transparent guard. 3 English finger. WARNING Place blades in blade storage area. To avoid possible serious injury, always wear safety goggles or safety glasses with side shields. Keep hands and fingers away, from the motor housing and blade clamp and do not reach underneath work while blade is cutting. To close: Push the door up with your thumb or finger. WARNING Do not insert saw blade into air vents. They could come in contact with electrically live internal parts and cause electric shock, resulting in serious injury. WARNING To avoid serious personal injury, do not use saw without safety guard properly in place. WARNING Your saw should never be connected to power supply when you are assembling parts, making adjustments, installing or removing blades or when not in use. Disconnecting your saw will prevent accidental starting which could cause serious injury. VARIABLE SPEED See Figure 9. Your saw has a variable speed control selector designed to allow operator control and adjustment of speed and power limits. The speed and power of your saw can be increased or decreased by rotating the variable speed control selector in the direction of the arrows. NOTE: Hold your saw in normal operating position and turn the variable speed control selector counterclockwise to increase speed and power. Turn clockwise to decrease speed and power. If you wish to lock the switch on at a given speed, depress the trigger switch, push in and hold the lock-on button, and release the trigger switch. Next, adjust the variable speed control selector until the desired speed is reached. Avoid running your saw at low speeds for extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause your saw to become overheated. If this occurs, cool your saw by running it without a load and at full speed. GENERAL CUTTING See Figure 5. Rest the front of the saw base on the workpiece and align cutting edge of the blade with the line on your workpiece. Make sure the power cord is out of the way of saw blade and not in the line of cut. Start your saw and move it forward on the work surface. Apply downward pressure to keep the saw steady and only enough forward pressure to keep the blade cutting. WARNING Do not force your saw. Forcing your saw may overheat the motor and break saw blades. ORBITAL MOTION See Figure 5. The blade of your saw cuts in orbital motion. This feature is adjustable and provides faster and more efficient cutting. With orbital motion the blade cuts through your work in the upstroke but does not drag across your work in the downstroke. The following guidelines may be used in determining correct speed for various applications. LOW speed is ideal when minimum speed and power is required, for example starting cuts. MEDIUM speed is suitable for cutting hard metals, plastics and laminates. HIGH speed produces best results when maximum power is required, for example cutting wood. Soft metals such as aluminum, brass and copper also require high speeds. Higher settings (H) should be used when fast cutting in soft material. BLADE STORAGE STRAIGHT CUT See Figure 2. A convenient feature on your saw is the blade storage. The blade storage area is located on the back of dust port. It is convenient for storing extra blades when not in use. See Figure 5. A straight cut can be made by clamping a piece of wood or straightedge to the workpiece and guiding the edge of your saw against it. Make the cut from one direction only, do not cut halfway to complete the cut from the opposite end. Lower (L) settings should be used when cutting materials with more resistance. To open: Pull the door down with your thumb or 4 English SCROLL CUTTING Make sure the blade is inside the area to be cut. See Figure 6. Scroll cuts can be made with your saw by guiding the direction of the cut with applied pressure on the handle. Start your saw by using high speed and slowly lower the blade into the workpiece until the blade cuts through the wood. Continue lowering the blade into the workpiece until the base rests flat on the work surface, then move the saw forward to complete the cut. WARNING Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in broken blades or damage to the material being cut. Use only the 7 teeth per inch blade for this type of cut. METAL CUTTING Many kinds of metals can be cut with your saw. Be careful not to twist or bend the blades. Do not force. If the blade chatters or vibrates excessively, use a finer tooth blade or higher speed. If blade heats excessively, use lower speed. If blade teeth become filled or clogged when cutting soft metals, such as aluminum, use a coarsertooth blade or lower speed. We recommend the use of oil when cutting metals to keep blades cool, increase cutting action, and prolong blade life. Clamp the work firmly and cut close to the clamping point to eliminate any vibration of the workpiece being cut. When cutting conduit, pipe or angle iron, clamp work in a vice if possible and saw close to the vice. To cut thin sheet materials, "sandwich" the material between hardboard or plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration and material tearing. By doing this, the material will be cut smoothly. Lay out your pattern or line of cut on top of the "sandwich". ANGLE CUTTING (BEVEL CUTTING) See Figure 7. Bevel cutting angles may be adjusted from 0° to 45° right or left. Angles for cuts from 0° to 45° in 15° increments are marked on a scale on both the left and right side of the base. The use of a protractor is recommended when accurate cuts are required. ADJUSTING THE ANGLE See Figure 3 and 7. Release the transparent guard. Release the bevel lock lever until the base can be moved. Slide base forward slightly to release the base from the tab on the motor housing. Align the mark on the base of the desired angle with the edge of the motor housing. Once the desired angle is reached, slide the base back until the tab on the motor housing aligns with the appropriate notch on the rear of the base. IMPORTANT When cutting metal, keep exposed portion of saw bar clean and free of metal chips by wiping frequently with an oily cloth. Use extreme caution in disposing of oily cloth after completion of job to prevent potential fire hazard. Push the bevel lock lever back to secure the base. Install the transparent guard. TO MAKE A PLUNGE CUT DUSTLESS FEATURE See Figure 8. See Figure 10. For dustless operation, a dust port has been provided with your saw. It attaches to the saw base. This allows the air to flow out around the blade blowing sawdust and chips away from the operators view of the line of cut. WARNING To avoid loss of control, broken blades, or damage to the material being cut, always use extreme caution when making plunge cuts. We do not recommend plunge cutting on materials other than wood. TO INSTALL: Mark the line of cut clearly on the workpiece. Unplug your saw. Set the cutting angle at 0°. Tilt your saw forward so that it rests on the front edge of the base and blade will not come in contact with the workpiece when the saw is turned on. 5 English Depress the trigger switch to generate a red laser beam on the work surface in front of the saw. Use the laser to guide the saw along the line of cut. WARNING Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious injury. LED WORKLIGHT See Figure 12. The jigsaw has a built-in LED worklight. This feature is convenient when working in close or tight areas where additional light is needed. Whenever the trigger switch is depressed, the LED worklight will illuminate. Attach the dust port to the back of the base. You can hear a click sound when it is locked securely. Connect exhaust opening to dust collection system. TO REMOVE: Unplug your saw. LIVE TOOL INDICATOR Directly pull the dust port out. This tool features a live tool indicator which illuminates as soon as the tool is connected to the supply. This warns the user that the tool is connected and will operate when the switch is pressed. TO CONNECT DUST EXTRACTION SYSTEM (NOT INCLUDED) Unplug the tool. MAINTENANCE WARNING GENERAL All other parts represent an important part of the class II insulation system and should be serviced only by a qualified service technician. Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of commercial solvents. Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc. Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious injury. Connect the nozzle of the dust collection system to the dust port. EDGE GUIDE See Figure 11. An edge guide is available for use with your saw. It can be used for making crosscuts and rip cuts. WARNING Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleumbased products, penetrating oils, etc. come in contact with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can damage, weaken or destroy plastic. TO INSTALL: Unplug your saw. WARNING It has been found that electric tools are subject to accelerated wear and possible premature failure when they are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars, wallboard or plaster. The chips and grindings from these materials are highly abrasive to electric tool parts such as bearings, brushes, commutators, etc. Consequently, it is not recommended that this tool be used for extended work on any fiberglass material, wallboard or plaster. During any use on these materials it is extremely important that the tool is cleaned frequently by blowing with an air jet. Failure to unplug your saw could result in accidental starting causing possible serious injury. Insert arm of the edge guide through the two slots in the base of your saw. Adjust edge guide to the desired width and lock in place with the edge guide screw. WARNING When servicing, use only identical replacement parts. Use of any other part may create a hazard or cause product damage. LUBRICATION All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under normal operating conditions. Therefore, no further lubrication is required. LASER GUIDE See Figure 12. 6 English CAUTION 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. Keep extension cords away from the cutting area and position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber, tools, etc., during cutting operation. WARNING Check extension cords before each use, if damaged replace immediately. Never use tool with a damaged cord as touching the damaged area could cause electrical shock resulting in serious injury.
