SCROLMNG/ORBITAL CONTROL LEVER
This jig saw is equipped with an orbital control lever that enables you to select
the type of orbital action best suited for your purpose and workpiece material.
Shift the lever to one of the positions described below prior to starting your cut.
1. SCROLLING- this mode allows 360 ° blade rotation using the scrolling knob.
In this mode, there is no orbital action. Use with a scroll blade (available
separately) to cut intricate scroll patterns in all materials with normal up and
down blade motion.
2. SMOOTH- for cutting all materials with normal up and down blade motion
with minimal splintering. In this mode, there is no orbital action. Use this
mode for cutting hardwoods, mild steel, soft and hard materials with fine
wood cutting and smooth metal cutting blades.
3. LOW - for cutting most metal, plastics and hardwoods, with a slightly
aggressive orbital action.
4. MEDIUM- for cutting most metal, plastics, and hardwoods with a more
aggressive orbital action than the LOW mode.
5. FAST- for maximum orbital action and the fastest cutting in plywood, soft
woods and softer materials.
Choose the SCROLLING or SMOOTH setting with the scrolling/orbital control
lever for normal up and down blade motion (position 1 and 2).
Choose the LOW or MEDIUM settings for the least aggressive orbital blade
actions (position 3 and 4).
Choose the FAST setting for the fastest, most aggressive cutting with maximum
orbital blade action (position 5).
NOTE: In order to reach full orbital action, the blade must be facing straight
forward and the back of the blade must rest in the groove of the guide roller.
