• Specifications may differ from country to country. • Weight according to EPTA-Procedure 01/2003 Intended use ENE021-1 The tool is intended for sawing wood, plastic, metal and building materials with a strong impact. It is suitable for straight and curved cutting. ENF002-1 Power supply The tool should be connected only to a power supply of the same voltage as indicated on the nameplate, and can only be operated on single-phase AC supply. They are double-insulated in accordance with European Standard and can, therefore, also be used from sockets without earth wire.

RECIPRO SAW SAFETY WARNINGS GEB008-6

1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

2. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control. 3. Always use safety glasses or goggles. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. 4. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect workpiece for any nails and remove them before operation. 5. Do not cut oversize workpiece.

6. Check for the proper clearance beyond the workpiece before cutting so that the blade will not strike the floor, workbench, etc.

7. Hold the tool firmly. 8. Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on. 9. Keep hands away from moving parts. 10. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held. 11. Always switch off and wait for the blade to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from the workpiece. 12. Do not touch the blade or the workpiece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin. 13. Do not operate the tool at no-load unnecessarily. 14. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator for the material and application you are working with. 15. Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow material supplier safety data.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION CAUTION:

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

Adjusting the shoe (Fig. 1 & 2)

When the blade loses its cutting efficiency in one place along its cutting edge, reposition the shoe to utilize a sharp, unused portion of its cutting edge. This will help to lengthen the life of the blade. To reposition the shoe, push the shoe button in the “A” direction with a click and reposition as shown in the figure which allows you to make fiveway adjustment. To secure the shoe, push the shoe button in the “B” direction with a click.

Speed adjusting dial (For JR3070CT)

(Fig. 5) The strokes per minute can be adjusted just by turning the adjusting dial. This can be done even while the tool is running. The dial is marked 1 (lowest speed) to 6 (full speed). Turn the adjusting dial without positive stops between 1 and 6 according to your work. Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed may differ with the type or thickness of the workpiece. In general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced. Number on adjusting dial

Selecting the cutting action (Fig. 3)

This tool can be operated with an orbital or a straight line cutting action. The orbital cutting action thrusts the blade forward on the cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed.

To change the cutting action, press the stopper and turn the lever to the desired cutting action position. Then, release the stopper to lock the lever. Refer to the table to select the appropriate cutting action.

Number on adjusting dial

• Orbital action means that the saw blade moves up and down, and back and forth at the same time. This increases the efficiency of cutting. Position

Straight line cutting action

For cutting mild steel, stainless steel and plastics.

For clean cuts in wood and plywood.

I Small orbit cutting action

For cutting mild steel, aluminum and hard wood.

II Medium orbit cutting action

For cutting wood and plywood.

For fast cutting in aluminum and mild steel.

III Large orbit cutting action

For fast cutting in wood and plywood.

Switch action (Fig. 4)

CAUTION: • Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when released. To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop. For continuous operation, pull the switch trigger and then push in the lock button. To stop the tool from the locked position, pull the switch trigger fully, then release it.

Autoclaved lightweight concrete

• If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds for a long period of time, the operation life of the motor will be reduced. • The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far as 6 and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or the speed adjusting function may no longer work. The tools equipped with electronic function are easy to operate because of the following features. Constant speed control Electronic speed control for obtaining constant speed. Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is kept constant even under load condition. Soft start feature Safety and soft start because of suppressed starting shock.

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

Installing or removing the saw blade

CAUTION: • Always clean out all chips or foreign matter adhering to the blade, blade clamp and/or slider. Failure to do so 5

may cause insufficient tightening of the blade, resulting in a serious injury.

To install the saw blade, always make sure that the blade clamp lever is in released position on the insulation cover before inserting the saw blade. If the blade clamp lever is in fixed position, rotate the blade clamp lever in the direction of the arrow so that it can be locked at the released position . (Fig. 6) Insert the saw blade into the blade clamp as far as it will go. The blade clamp lever rotates and the saw blade is fixed. Make sure that the saw blade cannot be extracted even though you try to pull it out. (Fig. 7) NOTE: • If you do not insert the saw blade deep enough, the saw blade may be ejected unexpectedly during operation. This can be extremely dangerous. If the lever is positioned inside the tool, switch on the tool just a second to let the blade out as shown in the figure. Switch off and unplug the tool from the mains. To remove the saw blade, rotate the blade clamp lever in the direction of the arrow fully. The saw blade is removed and the blade clamp lever is fixed at the released position . (Fig. 8) NOTE: • Keep hands and fingers away from the lever during the switching operation. Failure to do so may cause personal injuries. • If you remove the saw blade without rotating the blade clamp lever fully, the lever may not be locked in the released position . In this case, rotate the blade clamp lever fully again, then make sure that the blade clamp lever locked at the released position .

CAUTION: • Always press the shoe firmly against the workpiece during operation. If the shoe is held away from the workpiece during operation, strong vibration and/or twisting will be produced, causing the blade to snap dangerously. • Always wear gloves to protect your hands from hot flying chips when cutting metal. • Be sure to always wear suitable eye protection which conforms with current national standards. • Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting metal. Failure to do so will cause premature blade wear. Press the shoe firmly against the workpiece. Do not allow the tool to bounce. Bring the blade into light contact with the workpiece. First, make a pilot groove using a slower speed. Then use a faster speed to continue cutting.

• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 10)

Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes. Use a screwdriver to remove the brush holder caps. Take out the worn carbon brushes, insert the new ones and secure the brush holder caps. (Fig. 11) To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, any other maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
