WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifi cations provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes. c) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

2) Electrical safety

a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock. b) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded. c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock. d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock. e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock. f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. b) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as a dust mask, non- skid safety shoes, hard hat or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off -position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents. d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury. e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations. f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair and clothing away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair can be caught in moving parts. g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards. h) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe injury within a fraction of a second.

4) Power tool use and care

a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off . Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/ or remove the battery pack, if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users. e) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may aff ect the power toolʼs operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.

ADJUSTING THE GUIDE ROLLER

The guide roller, shown in Fig. 3, is employed to prevent the blade from snapping. Prior to use, adjust guide roller in accordance with the following procedures: (1) Loosen the holder set screw with the accessory hexagonal bar wrench. (2) Gently slide the guide roller until the roller groove lightly touches the back of the blade. NOTE On delivery from the factory, there is a gap of about 3 mm between the roller and blade. (3) Firmly tighten the holder set screw. CAUTION ○ The guide roller can be used only for Blades that have a straight line on the rear that is longer than 50 mm. (Fig. 4A and 4B) When using other types of blades (Fig. 4C), slide the guide roller in backwards so that the guide roller does not contact the blade. ○ When cutting thick boards or performing continuous cutting operations, use the blade shown in the Fig. 4A, 4B and be sure to set the guide roller.

Use the chip cover to reduce fl ying of cut particles and to easily operate the saw. Slide the chip cover while lightly pressing its front section. The chip cover can be set at three positions as shown in Fig. 5.

2. How to choose the position of the chip cover

Set the chip cover to the fi rst step when attaching or removing the blade. Set the chip cover to the second step when cutting wooden materials. Set the chip cover to the second or third step when cutting metal materials such as steel. CAUTION ○ Keep always the chip cover in the low position when operating the tool. ○ Wear protection glasses even if the chip cover is used.

ADJUSTING THE BLADE OPERATING SPEED

The blade operating speed can be adjusted within a range of 0 to 3,000 min

according to the degree that the trigger switch is depressed. Select the speed appropriate to the material being worked and/or the working conditions. To achieve continuous operation, pull the trigger switch all the way back and depress the stopper. Then, turn the speed adjustment knob to adjust the blade operating speed as desired. NOTE The speed adjustment knob rotates approximately 1.5 turns. To turn the switch OFF, pull the trigger switch again to disengage the stopper, and release the trigger switch. CUTTING CAUTION ○ While sawing, the base must be fi rmly in contact with the material surface, and the blade must be held at a right angle. If the base becomes separated from the material, it could cause the blade to break. ○ When cutting while holding the front surface, be careful of the moving blade and hold the upper part fi rmly.

1. Rectilinear cutting

(1) To ensure accurate rectilinear cutting, employ the optional accessory guide as shown in Fig. 6. (2) Use the splinter guard to reduce roughness of the cutting surface of wooden materials. Attach the splinter guard by inserting it from the front section of the base until it clicks into place. (Fig. 7) CAUTION Set the base in the front position when using the splinter guard.

2. Cutting a circle or a circular arc

To ensure effi cient cutting, employ the optional accessory guide and nail or wood screw as shown in Fig. 8. When mounting the guide, loosen the base bottom screw, and shift the base as far forward as it will go.

3. Sawing curved lines

When sawing a small circular arc, reduce the feeding speed of the machine. If the machine is fed too fast, it could cause the blade to break.

4. Cutting metallic materials

Always use an appropriate cutting agent (spindle oil, soapy water, etc.). When a liquid cutting agent is not available, apply grease to the back surface of the material to be cut.

(1) In lumber Aligning the blade direction with the grain of the wood, cut step by step until a window hole is cut in the center of the lumber. (Fig. 9) (2) In other materials When cutting a window hole in materials other than lumber, initially bore a hole with a drill or similar tool from which to start cutting.

Set the chip cover to the fi rst step. (Fig. 5) To adjust the angle of inclination; loosen the base bottom screw, shift the base position to the side groove of the semicircular portion, align the scale on the base semicircular portion (fi gures engraved on the scale indicate the angle of inclination) with the housing edge line, and thoroughly tighten the base bottom screw. (Fig. 10 and 11) CAUTION Set the screw to the opposite side of the inclining side when using the guide. (Fig. 12)

7. Dust produced in operation

CAUTION ○ To prevent accidents, turn the switch off and remove the plug from the power supply when not in use. ○ For instruction on using the dust collector and applicable cutting debris, please read the dust collector instruction manual. The dust produced in normal operation may aff ect the operator’s health. Either of following way is recommended. a) Wear a dust mask b) Use external dust collection equipment 000BookFCJ65V3WE.indb8000BookFCJ65V3WE.indb8 2022/02/0215:16:512022/02/0215:16:519 English When using the external dust collection equipment, connect the rubber adapter (accessory of external dust collection equipment) with end the of hose from external dust collection equipment. Then connect the another end of rubber adapter with the hose attachment part that positioned in rear end of jig saw. (See Fig. 13)

To ensure maximum operating effi ciency and results it is very important to select the appropriate blade best suited to the type and thickness of the material to be cut. One type of blade is provided as standard accessory. The blade number is engraved in the vicinity of the mounting portion of each blade. Select appropriate blades by referring to Table 1.

2. Acceptable commercial blades (Fig. 14)
