• Comezando un corte: 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.
• Cortes rectos: Maintain steady pressure and guide the tool smoothly along the cutting line. For long straight cuts, consider using a straight edge guide (not included).
• Cortes de curva: Emprega unha lámina máis estreita para curvas máis pechadas. Guía a ferramenta lentamente, permitindo que a lámina siga a curva sen forzala.
• Cortes en bisel: After adjusting the base plate angle (as described in Setup), proceed with cutting as usual, ensuring the base plate remains flat on the workpiece.
• Cortes de inmersión: 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.

Mantemento

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

• Limpeza: 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.
