3. To clear dust from accumulating along
the cut line, use the Dust Blower to
blow a stream of air onto workpiece.
4. To activate, turn the Dust Blower switch
to the on (horizontal) position. To turn
it off, turn the switch back to the off
(vertical) position. See Figure 7, below.
Bevel and Metal Cutting
1. Use the included Hex Key to loosen the
Cap Screw (24) on the bottom of the
Base Plate (22). Tilt the base, allowing
for bevel cuts between 0 and 45°.
2. Retighten the Cap Screw once the
desired angle is reached.
3. For metal cutting, be sure to use a coolant
such as cutting oil during use. Failure
to add coolant will lead to greater blade
wear. If desired, grease the underside of
the workpiece in place of adding coolant.
4. When finished with the Jigsaw, unlock and
release the Trigger to stop the Jigsaw. Wait
until the Saw Blade stops completely. Turn
the Laser Switch to its "OFF" position. Then,
remove the Jigsaw from the workpiece.
5. To prevent accidents disconnect the
power cord after use. Clean, then store
the tool indoors out of children's reach.
