ADJUSTING THE CUTTING SPEED USING THE VARIABLE-SPEED DIAL
NOTE: Determine
the optimum
speed for cutting your workpiece
by making
a trial cut in a scrap piece of the same material. Experience
will help you to
determine
the best results for a )articular
application.
However,
as a general
rule, use slower speeds for
harder, denser materials,
and faster speeds for softer
material.
The variable speed feature of
this jigsaw enhances
the cutting
performance,
and saves the
blade from undue wear.
1.
Use the variable speed dial
to adjust the speed of the
blade.
2.
Turn the dial to increase or
decrease
the speed (Fig3).
