3.4 Attaching Dust Port and Parallel Guide

• Dust Port: Slide the dust port onto the designated opening at the rear of the jigsaw. An adapter is included for connecting to various vacuum hose sizes.
• Parallel Guide: Insert the parallel guide rod into the slots on the front of the base. Adjust the guide to the desired cutting width and tighten its locking screw.

4. Operating Instructions

Before operating, ensure the battery is charged and securely installed, and the correct blade is fitted for your material.

4.1 Power On/Off

• To start the jigsaw, press the trigger switch.
• To stop, release the trigger switch.

4.2 Selecting Speed

• The jigsaw features a 6-speed variable control dial.
• Rotate the dial to select the desired speed setting (1-6).
• Use lower speeds for harder materials, delicate cuts, or when more control is needed (e.g., PVC, thin metal).
• Use higher speeds for faster cuts in softer materials (e.g., wood).

4.3 Setting Orbital Action

• The orbital action selector has 4 positions (0-3).
• Position 0 (No Orbital Action): For fine, clean cuts in all materials, especially metal and plastics.
• Positions 1-3 (Increasing Orbital Action): For faster, more aggressive cuts in wood and softer materials. Higher settings remove material more quickly but may result in a rougher cut.

4.4 Cutting Techniques

• General Cutting: Hold the tool firmly with both hands. Ensure the base plate rests flat on the workpiece. Guide the tool along the cutting line without forcing it.
• Straight Cuts: Use the parallel guide for accurate straight cuts.
• Curved Cuts: The barrel grip design enhances control for intricate curved cuts. Use a slower speed and appropriate orbital setting.
• Bevel Cuts: Adjust the base to the desired angle as described in Section 3.3.
