Dust Extraction - Skil 4480 Consignes De Fonctionnement/Sécurité

BLADE STORAGE COMPARTMENT
Your Jigsaw is equipped with a blade storage
compartment in the dust port of your saw
(Fig. 5) . To remove, pull compartment out of
dust port in direction of arrow.
Always make sure the blade storage
compartment is securely in the dust port to
prevent blades from falling out.

DUST EXTRACTION

Your jigsaw is equipped with a dust port for
dust and chip extraction.
To use this feature, remove blade storage
compartment and move dust blower switch to
the "OFF" position "O" (Fig. 6).
Attach vacuum hose (optional accessory) to the
dust port, and connect opposite end of the hose
to a shop vacuum cleaner.
SITE-LIGHT™ (Model 4580 only)
Your tool is also equipped with a light that
turns on automatically when the switch is
activated, for better visibility when cutting
(Fig. 7).
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.

LEVER
To increase orbital action, turn the lever to a
higher setting. To decrease orbital action turn
ever to a lower setting. When minimal
splintering is desired we recommend using
"Smooth" position.

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.
