guide roller (9).
5. Check that the saw blade (10) is securely mount-
ed in the blade holder (13).
6. To remove the saw blade (10), follow the instruc-
tions above in reverse order.
INSTALLING THE PARALLEL STOP (Image C)
The parallel stop (11) enables you to saw parallel cuts.
1. Undo the two locking screws (12) on the sole-
plate (8).
2. Now slide the parallel stop (11) into the guides
(e) & (f) on the soleplate (8). You can fit the par-
allel stop (11) on either the left or right of the
equipment.
3. The guide strip must always face downwards. Set
the required distance using the measurement
scale on the parallel stop (11) and tighten the
locking screws (12) again.
IMPORTANT: The read-off point for the measure-
ment scale is at point (e) or (f), as shown in Image
C, depending on which side the parallel stop is in-
serted from.
SETTING THE SOLEPLATE FOR MITER CUTS
BEVEL ADJUSTMENT (Image E)
The soleplate can be tilted from 0° to 45° to per-
form bevel cuts.
1. First remove the adapter for dust extraction
system (5) by slightly lifting the back end while
pulling as shown in Image A.
2. With the 3mm hex. key (4) loosen the locking
bolt (7) which releases clamp plate (18).
3. Tilt the soleplate to the desired angle.
4. Tighten locking bolt (7) to secure.
NOTE: As the bevel increases, the blade length (10)
will effectively shorten. Ensure the blade (10) will
make the cut completely through the material prior
to beginning.
IMPORTANT: For miter cuts you must remove the
locking screws for the parallel stop (12) and the
splinter guard (16).
ADAPTER FOR DUST EXTRACTION SYSTEM
WARNING: DUST CREATED WHEN WORKING MAY
BE DANGEROUS.
Connect your jigsaw to a vacuum cleaner using the
adaptor for dust extraction (5). This will ensure
optimum dust extraction from the workpiece. The
benefits are that you will protect both the equip-
ment and your own health. Your work area will also
be cleaner and safer.
1. Fit the adapter (5) as shown in Image A. The
adapter (5) must audibly engage to ensure that
it is secure in the soleplate (8). The adapter for
chip extraction (5) cannot be used for miter cuts.
2. Fit the vacuum tube of the vacuum cleaner onto
the adaptor opening (5). Check that the connec-
tions are air-tight.
LINE GUIDE
Using the line mark (17) you can carry out exact cuts
following cutting lines marked on the workpiece.
IMPORTANT: Carry out a trial cuts in a piece of waste
wood.
The mark (17) in the center of the soleplate is only
provided for cutting along a line and not for reading
the measurement scale.
SPLINTER GUARD (Image 3)
The splinter guard (16) ensures that the material
you want to cut does not splinter or crack during
sawing. Insert it into the soleplate (8) from under-
neath as shown in Image D.
NOTE: The splinter guard can be used only for 0°
cuts and must be removed for miter cuts up to 47°!
OPERATION
ON/OFF SWITCH
To switch on:
Press the locking button (1) and the On/Off switch
ƒ
(2).
Infinitely variable stroke speed control is possible
ƒ
with the On/Off switch (2). The further you push
the switch, the higher the stroke speed.
To switch off:
Release the locking button (1) and the On/Off
ƒ
switch (2).
SETTING THE PENDULUM ACTION
The strength of the pendulum action of the saw blade
f
(10) can be adjusted using the selector switch for pen-
dulum action (8). You can adjust the cutting speed,
cutting performance and appearance of the cut to the
workpiece you want to saw.
Set the selector switch for pendulum action (15) to
f
one of the following positions
Pendulum
Position
Action
a -
b small
c medium
d large
NOTE: The best combination of speed and pendulum
action depends on the material you want to saw. We
recommend you to make a trial cut on a waste piece in
order to check the ideal settings.
MAKING CUTS
Make sure that the On/Off switch (2) is not depressed.

Only then should you connect the battery pack to the
equipment.
Do not switch on the jigsaw until you have fitted a saw
