How to use

Before use, ensure the correct battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Fit the appropriate jigsaw blade for the material and cutting profile; secure the blade according to the tool’s blade-change mechanism. Mark the cutting line on the workpiece and clamp the workpiece securely to prevent movement. Start the jigsaw and allow the blade to reach operating speed before engaging the cut; guide the tool steadily along the marked line without forcing it, letting the blade do the work. After completing the cut, switch off the tool and wait for the blade to stop before setting the jigsaw down. Remove the battery for storage or transport.

Usage recommendations

Use blades matched to the material for optimal cutting quality and tool life; coarse-tooth blades for fast rough cuts in wood and fine-tooth blades for clean finishes or work in plastics. Secure the workpiece and wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye and hearing protection. For extended cutting sessions, use a spare charged battery to maintain consistent performance.
