Installing Makita jig saw blade CAUTION : Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before installing or removing the blade. Use the hex wrench to loosen the bolt. With the blade teeth facing forward, insert the blade into the blade holder as far as it will go.
Installing universal shank jig saw blade CAUTION : Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before installing or removing the blade. If the universal blade clamp is used, you can use blades of other makes which have a universal shank like the one shown in the figure, with a blade width of 6.
Straight line or orbital cutting action I Conventional jig saws cut with a straight 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.
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. Number 1 The reference table on the right denotes the relationship between the number set- tings on the speed change dial and the approximate strokes per minute at that setting.
Operation Turn the tool on and wait until the blade attains full speed. Then rest the base flat on the workpiece and gently move the tool forward along the previously marked cut- ting line. When cutting curves, advance the tool very slowly. I . I CAUTION : Failure to hold the tool base flush with the workpiece may cause blade breakage.
I I Front flush cuts Loosen the bolt on the back of the base with the hex wrench, then slide the base backwards. Check the contact between the back edge of the blade and the roller, then secure the bolt. Plunge cutting Starting a cut at other than the edge of the workpiece without first drilling a starting hole requires a "plunge cut".
Using guide rule (Rip fence) When cutting widths of under 150 mm (6") repeatedly, use of the guide rule will assure fast, clean, straight cuts. ~ I To attach the guide rule (rip fence), secure the rule holder to the base with the screw (do not tighten).
To attach the circular guide, use the pin, inserting it in the center hole (arrow) and secure it with the threaded knob. Then slide the base of the tool forwards. The circular guide attaches to the base of the tool in the same manner as the guide rule (rip fence).
MAINTENANCE CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, carbon brus.
