2. Release the blade change control and the blade will secure
firmly in place.
3. Replace the plug and run the jigsaw under no load to
check that it runs smoothly and the blade is secure before
using it to cut any materials.
Dust extraction adaptor
The dust extraction adaptor (13) allows a dust extraction
system or a household vacuum cleaner to be connected to
the tool in order to remove dust whilst the tool is in use.
Warning. Do not use a dust extraction system or a vacuum
cleaner when cutting metal. Sparks may ignite residual
wood dust.
Using the redeye laser line system
Laser light assembly
The laser light is powered from a transformer housed within
the assembly. The REDEYE® laser line can be used for
improved operator cutting vision, accuracy of cut, faster set-
up and increased safety of operation.
Laser light on/off switch
The laser beam can be switched on and off using the
switch (1).
Laser aperture
When the REDEYE® laser line is switched on, an intense
narrow beam of pure red light is emitted from the laser
aperture (14). The line shines along the work piece to guide
you as you cut. The line is clearly visible and will not be
obscured by sawdust.
Maintenance
WARNING. Always ensure that the tool is switched off and
the plug is removed from the power point before making
any adjustments or maintenance procedures.
1. Keep the tool’s air vents unclogged and clean at all
times.
2. Regularly check to see if any dust or foreign matter has
entered the grills near the motor and around the trigger
switch. Use a soft brush to remove any accumulated
dust. Wear safety glasses to protect your eyes whilst
cleaning.
3. Re-lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
4. If the body of the saw needs cleaning, wipe it with
a soft damp cloth. A mild detergent can be used but
nothing like alcohol, petrol or other cleaning agent.
5. Never use caustic agents to clean plastic parts.
CAUTION. Water must never come into contact with
the saw.
Power cord maintenance
If the supply cord needs replacing, the task must be carried
out by the manufacturer, the manufacturer’s agent, or an
authorised service centre in order to avoid a safety hazard.
General inspection
Regularly check that all the fixing screws are tight. They
may vibrate loose over time.
