How to use

Connect the jigsaw to a 230 V mains supply and ensure the power cord and plug are undamaged. Fit a suitable jigsaw blade for the material to be cut and secure it according to the tool’s blade retention system. Mark the cut line on the workpiece, clamp the material to prevent movement, and position the baseplate flat on the surface. Start the jigsaw at idle, then smoothly increase speed while guiding the tool along the cut line without forcing it. Allow the blade to complete the cut before setting the tool down and switch off and unplug before changing blades or making adjustments.

Usage recommendations

Use blades matched to the material and thickness for best results, keep the workpiece clamped firmly, and wear appropriate eye and hearing protection. For aluminium cuts, use a blade with fine to medium tooth pitch and moderate feed rate to avoid overheating. Ensure adequate ventilation and clean the tool after use to maintain performance.
