This jigsaw has a 4 position switch (0-3) located on the Left Hand
side of the machine just behind the blade. Only operate this switch
when the machine is switched ‘Off’ and the blade is stationary.
Position ‘0’ Straight cutting action
Positions ‘1 – 3’ Orbital cutting actions
Orbital cutting action has an aggressive blade cutting motion and is
especially suited for cutting soft materials.
During orbital cutting the blade moves forwards as well as up and
down. Position 1 is the least aggressive of the orbital cutting actions,
with position 3 being the most aggressive.
The Table below gives some typical examples of the use of the
orbital cutting facility. We recommend that the operator always
practices on a piece of unwanted material to determine the most
suitable selection for the task at hand.
POSITION TYPICAL APPLICATION
0 Thin materials. Fine cuts. Tight curves. All metals.
1 Hard materials such as chipboard, MDF, Plywood etc.
2 Thick materials such as constructional timber and plastic.
3 Fast cuts when cutting with the grain in softwood material.
