- Page 7 Straight line or orbital cutting action Conventional jig saws cut with line action, that is, the blade moves only up and down in a straight line. Your saw also cuts in this manner but, for softer workpieces, an orbital cutting action can be selected.
- Page 8 Speed change To adjust the tool speed, turn the speed change dial. The tool speed can be adjusted between 1,000 and 3,000 strokes per minute. The reference table on the right denotes the relationship between the number tings on the speed change dial and the approximate strokes per minute a t that setting.
