Motor
Your D
E
WALT tool is powered by a D
E
WALT-built motor. Be sure your
power supply agrees with the nameplate markings.
Voltage decrease of more than 10% will cause loss of power and
overheating. All D
E
WALT tools are factory tested; if this tool does not
operate, check the power supply.
Variable Speed Switch (Fig. 1)
(a) The trigger switch (A) governs the speed of the saw. (the further
the trigger is depressed, the higher the S.P.M.).
(b) The safety lock button (B) should be depressed whenever the tool
is not in use to eliminate the chance of accidental starting.
Straight Line or Orbital Cutting Action
(Fig. 2)
For cutting softer materials your jig saw features orbital cutting action.
Soft materials, like wood and plastic, permit deep penetration of
individual saw teeth. The orbital action thrusts the blade forward on the
cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed over conventional jig
saws. Harder materials like metal should be cut using the straight line
cutting action or a very low orbital setting. To select straight line or
orbital cutting adjust the lever (A) on the saw as shown in Figure 2.
Bevel Cutting Adjustment (Fig. 3)
Bevel cuts may be made at any angle between 0° and 45°.
TO ADJUST THE SHOE:
a. Lift the shoe lever on the bottom of the tool (A).
b. Align the arrow on the housing and the shoe.
c. Rotate the shoe to the desired angle.
