VACUUM CHIP EXTRACTOR
Caution!: Only use the equipment with a compatible vacuum chip extractor.
The vacuum chip extraction nozzle
» has a standard internal diameter of 35 mm.
Connect a household vacuum cleaner or a wet and dry vacuum cleaner to the nozzle as follows:
1. Rotate the vacuum hose on to the extraction nozzle and test whether it is securely held in place.
2. Slide the clear-view cover
´ downwards for optimum chip extraction.
MAINTENANCE OF THE JIGSAW
1. Clean the jigsaw regularly (remove chips and bits of wood etc.). For the best results do this straight after the work has been completed.
2. Do not allow liquids to get inside the jigsaw. Use a soft cloth for cleaning the housing. Do not use petrol, solvents or cleaners
that may attack the plastic.
3. Air vents must always be clear and clean.
ADVICE ON WORKING METHODS, TIPS AND TRICKS
࡯ Here is some advice on adjustment of the clear-view cover ´ to give you optimum chip extraction: the chip blower blows the chips away
from the cut. This is particularly effective when sawing along a marked line. The distribution of vibration makes operation smoother because of
weights moving in opposite directions on the foot.
࡯ The base plate ² can be set at an angle of up to 45° in both directions. For plunging cuts and sawing near an edge, the base plate can be
set towards the rear.
࡯ Here is some advice on the pendulum action control º : the saw blade is only pressed against the material on the return stroke / working
stroke. It is moved away from the material on the forward stroke. The result is better removal of chips, less friction and therefore a higher output.
࡯ To avoid the jigsaw springing up and down when sawing sheets, support the sheet on timbers. When sawing metal, apply a coolant like oil
or kerosene along the cutting line.
࡯ Adjust the speed and the pendulum action settings to suit the material to be sawn. We always recommend that you carry out a test cut first.
࡯ To use the jig saw put the front end of the base plate on the material and turn the machine on. Press the machine from above on to the
material and guide the jigsaw along the cutting line.
࡯ Do not use too much pressure; to achieve the best progress when sawing, use light pressure on the saw blade.
࡯ When sawing along a marked line use the marking on the splitting guard as a guide.
࡯ For exact cutting, clamp a timber batten on to the material as an aid or use the parallel guide µ .
࡯ For mitres / bevels, set the base plate ² in the required position.
࡯ Set the base plate ² to its rearmost position for cutting close to an edge.
࡯ The PPHSS 670 pendulum action jigsaw features HIGH TECHNOLOGY FIXING.
This allows you to work simply and easily adjusting the jigsaw without any tools.
All you need are your hands.
࡯ The PPHSS 670 pendulum action jigsaw is equipped with INTELLIGENT POWER CONTROL
This automatic power control ensures that within a certain oscillation range the output
from the jigsaw remains constant even when cutting harder and more resistant materials.
Further practical tips for power tools can be found in the accompanying booklet on safety advice.
We reserve the right to make technical modifications in the course of further development.
