Assembly
Inserting and Releasing
Battery Pack
Slide charged battery pack into the
housing until the battery pack locks into
position.
Your tool is equipped with a secondary
locking latch to prevent the battery pack
from completely falling out of the
handle, should it become loose due to
vibration.
To remove the battery pack, press the
battery pack release button and slide
the battery pack forward (Fig. 1).
Press the battery pack release button
again and slide the battery pack
completely out of tool housing.
Blade Installation And
Removal
To prevent damage,
do not turn blade
ejector lever when there is no blade in
the blade clamp or when inserting the
blade.
BLADE INSTALLATION
Insert the saw blade (teeth in cutting
direction) into the slot in the blade
clamp until the blade ejector lever
rotates to the LEFT, indicating that the
clamp has engaged. When inserting the
saw blade, the back of the blade must
rest in the groove of the guide roller
(Fig. 2.)
BLADE EJECTION
The tool should be held so that the
blade is safely ejected. To remove the
saw blade, rotate the blade ejector lever
to the RIGHT to the center stop; this
releases and ejects the saw blade (Fig.
3).
BLADE CLAMP RESET
There are two situations in which it is
necessary to reset the blade clamp:
RESET Type A: If the blade ejection
lever is rotated improperly, the “fingers”
within the clamp may slip into the blade
insert slot. To reset the clamp:
Step 1 – Using a a screwdriver, push
down on blade clamp fingers (as viewed
from the bottom of the jig saw), until
clamp can be rotated.
Step 2 – Rotate blade ejector lever to
the RIGHT until it locks into place.
The clamp is now ready for use.
RESET Type B: If the two fingers inside
the blade clamp accidentally get pushed
too far into the plunger, they will
prevent insertion of a blade. To bring
the fingers back to their correction
positions:
Step 1 – Turn the blade ejector lever to
Fig. 2
Fig. 3
Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or
off position before making any assembly, adjustments or changing
accessories. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool
accidentally.
