ORBITAL ACTION MODELS
Orbital Action models, have a lever (Fig. 8)
that will regulate the orbital action from
"Smooth" position for normal up and down
motion to maximum orbital action for faster
cutting in softer materials.
To increase orbital action, turn the lever to a
higher setting. To decrease orbital action turn
lever to a lower setting. When minimal
splintering is desired we recommend using
"Smooth" position.
SMOOTH LOW / MED FAST
MILD STEEL / SOFT METALS METAL PLASTIC SOFT WOODS
ALL MATERIALS HARD WOODS PLYWOOD
ATTENTION: In order to achieve orbital
action, the blade must be facing STRAIGHT
FORWARD and the back of the blade must
rest in the groove of the guide roller, and the
foot must be all the way in the forward
position. To adjust foot, lift foot adjustment
lever and flip lever completely over, then
push foot forward as far as possible and
lower foot adjustment lever to maintain
adjustment (Fig. 9).
Orbital cut control is not observable when
jigsaw is free running. Jigsaw must be
cutting for orbital action to occur. The speed
of cut is much more apparent in thicker
materials such as 2 by lumber.
SITE-LIGHT™
Your tool is also equipped with a light that
turns on automatically when the control wheel
is rotated to setting number 3 and 4, for
better visibility when cutting (Fig. 7).

SCROLL MODELS
Scrolling saws permit 360˚ rotation of the
saw blade without turning the saw, so
intricate designs may be cut with minimum
effort. To permit rotation of plunger turn
lever, (Fig. 10) to scrolling. The plunger of
your scrolling saw can also be locked in (4)
positions, 90˚ apart.
ATTENTION: When scroll cutting the blade
must be moved away from the guide rollers.
(Always move foot completely back). To
adjust foot, lift foot adjustment lever and flip
lever completely over, then push foot
backwards as far as possible to engage
locking tab, then lower the foot adjustment
lever to maintain adjustment (Fig. 11).
Note: It may be necessary to turn scrolling
knob slightly back and forth to be sure the
plunger is locked in the desired position.
