How to use

Secure the workpiece on a stable surface before starting. Fit an appropriate jigsaw blade for the material and cutting type, ensuring the blade is correctly tightened. Set the tool in position so the shoe rests flat on the work surface and align the blade with the intended cutting line. Start the jigsaw and allow the motor to reach operating speed before feeding the blade into the material; maintain a steady, controlled feed without forcing the tool. For curved cuts follow the marked line steadily, and for straight cuts use a guide or fence if higher precision is required. After finishing, switch off the tool and wait for the blade to stop before removing the jigsaw or changing the blade.

Recommendations

Use blades rated for the specific material and thickness to achieve cleaner cuts and longer blade life. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment such as eye protection and hearing protection, and clamp workpieces securely. Allow the motor to cool during extended use and inspect blades regularly for wear or damage to maintain cutting quality.
