  • Elektriese veiligheid: Kraggereedskapproppe moet by die aansluiting pas. Moet nooit die prop op enige manier verander nie. Vermy liggaamskontak met geaarde oppervlaktes soos pype, verkoelers, stowe en yskaste.
  • Persoonlike veiligheid: Dra altyd oogbeskerming. Gebruik gehoorbeskerming wanneer u vir lang tye werk. Trek behoorlik aan; vermy los klere of juweliersware. Maak lang hare vas.
  • Gereedskap gebruik en versorging: Moenie die kraggereedskap forseer nie. Gebruik die korrekte kraggereedskap vir u toepassing. Ontkoppel die prop van die kragbron voordat u enige aanpassings maak, bykomstighede verander of kraggereedskap bêre.

  4. Insert the saw blade into the blade holder with the teeth facing forward. Ensure the blade is fully seated.
  5. Los die lem clamp lever/button to secure the blade. Gently pull on the blade to confirm it is firmly locked in place.

2. Aanpassing van die basisplaat vir skuins snitte

  1. Ontkoppel die gereedskap van die kragtoevoer.
  2. Loosen the screws or lever that secure the base plate.
  3. Tilt the base plate to the desired angle for bevel cuts (up to 45 degrees). Use the angle scale for precision.
  4. Tighten the screws or lever firmly to secure the base plate in position.
  5. Always perform a test cut on scrap material to verify the angle before cutting your main workpiece.

  • To stop the jigsaw, release the power switch. Note: Some models may have a lock-on button for continuous operation, which must be disengaged to turn off the tool.

2. Selecting Pendulum Action

Die twee-stage pendulum action allows for faster cutting in softer materials and cleaner cuts in harder materials.

  • Higher Pendulum Setting: For faster, more aggressive cuts in wood and softer materials. This setting may result in a rougher cut edge.
  • Lower/No Pendulum Setting: For finer, cleaner cuts in wood, plastics, and metals. This setting is slower but provides better control and finish.
  • Adjust the pendulum setting using the dedicated lever or dial on the tool.

3. Sny tegnieke

  • Begin van 'n sny: Place the front edge of the base plate flat on the workpiece. Start the tool and allow the blade to reach full speed before slowly guiding it into the material along your marked line.
  • Reguit Snitte: Maintain steady pressure and guide the tool smoothly along the cutting line. For long straight cuts, consider using a straight edge guide (not included).
  • Kromsnitte: Use a narrower blade for tighter curves. Guide the tool slowly, allowing the blade to follow the curve without forcing it.
  • Skuins snitte: After adjusting the base plate angle (as described in Setup), proceed with cutting as usual, ensuring the base plate remains flat on the workpiece.
  • Duiksnitte: For internal cuts without a pilot hole, tilt the tool forward so the front edge of the base plate rests on the workpiece. Start the tool, then slowly lower the rear of the base plate until the blade plunges through the material.

Onderhoud

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your jigsaw. Always disconnect the tool from the power supply before performing any maintenance.

  • Skoonmaak: Regularly clean the ventilation openings and the blade area to prevent dust buildup. Use a soft brush or compressed air. Do not use water or solvents.
  • Lem vervanging: Replace dull or damaged blades promptly. Refer to the "Installing the Saw Blade" section for proper procedure.
  • Kragkabel: Inspect the power cord for any damage before each use. If damaged, have it repaired by a qualified service technician.
  • Berging: Bêre die figuursaag op 'n droë, veilige plek, buite bereik van kinders.
