How to use

Secure the workpiece firmly before starting and select an appropriate blade for the material and cut type. Connect the jigsaw to a suitable mains outlet and set the speed or stroke setting according to the material thickness. Guide the saw along the cutting line using a steady, even feed pressure; avoid forcing the tool. For straight cuts, use a guide or fence; for curves, follow the marked contour slowly to maintain accuracy. After cutting, switch off and unplug the tool before changing blades or performing maintenance.

Recommendations

Wear appropriate eye and hearing protection and use a dust extraction or mask when cutting wood or metal. Choose blades rated for the targeted material and replace dull blades to preserve cut quality. When working on metal, secure the sheet and use lubricant if needed to reduce heat and prolong blade life. Store the jigsaw in a dry place and inspect the power cord periodically for damage.
