How to use

Select a blade from the Makita A-86898 pack that matches the material and cut type; install it securely in the tool according to the jigsaw, scroll saw or reciprocating saw manufacturer's blade-change procedure. Set the machine speed and stroke length as recommended for the material being cut, and make steady, controlled passes—avoiding excessive feed pressure to reduce premature wear. Replace blades when cutting performance or edge quality declines.

Usage recommendations

For best results, clamp workpieces firmly, use appropriate speed settings for the material, and allow the blade to cut without forcing. Wear suitable eye and hearing protection and follow the safety instructions of the power tool. Store spare blades dry and free from corrosive environments to maintain performance.
