SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Always keep your Jigsaw clean and free from oil and grease.
Do not use caustic cleaning agents to clean the plastic housing.
Always keep the motor vent holes in the casing free of dirt, dust or
other obstructions.
Only use recommended blades. Never try and adapt and use the
machine for a purpose it was not intended.
Use the vacuum cleaner dust extraction outlet at all times. MDF particle
board gives off dangerous dust which should not be inhaled.
Wear an approved dust mask and eye protection at all times.
Water must never come into contact with the machine or cables.
Do not use the Jigsaw as wet cutter, ie immersing the blade in water.
A fatal shock will occur.
When using an extension cable unreel fully (minimum wire diameter of
2
extension lead to be 1mm ). If in doubt consult a qualified electrician.
Clamp work in a suitable work bench which allows both hands to
operate the power tool.
COMPONENTS AND CONTROLS (PIC 1)
1 On/Off trigger
2 Continuous operation button
3 Handle
4 Rating plate
5 Base plate
6 Blade guard
7 Blade roller guide
OPERATION (PIC.2)
This machine is fitted with a "continuous running switch". To start the
machine squeeze the ON / OFF switch. When the machine starts press
in the"continuous running switch" located on the side of the handle,
release the ON / OFF trigger. The machine will now run continuously
without the need to maintain pressure on the ON / OFF trigger. To
stop the machine briefly squeeze then release the ON / OFF trigger.
Press the machine firmly down onto the work piece and push slowly
forward letting the blade cut freely. Increasing the pressure will not
result in a faster cut.
Note: if the Jigsaw base is not held firmly into the work piece the blade
will snag and break.
Electronic speed control (pic.3)
The motor speed is electronically controlled, by rotating the thumb
wheel (Fig 3). Turning to - decreases the speed, 0 being the slowest
speed. Turning to + increases the motor speed, 6 being the fastest
speed.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR JIGSAW
In order to avoid cutting in to any nails, please check the workpiece
and pull out all nails before operation.
Do not cut any workpiece which size is beyond the saws capacity.
Before cutting please check that the workpiece has a suitable gap
below it, in order to prevent the saw touching the floor, table, etc.
Grip the tool firmly.
Ensure the saw is clear of the workpiece before turning on.
Never touch the moving blade by hand.
Check the position of power cables when cutting into walls or wall
panels.
Do not remove the saw from the workpiece until the saw has
completely stopped.
Do not touch the blade of the saw after operation, it will be very hot.
Keep Jigsaw cable away from blade. Clamp down if possible before
cutting begins.
Keep hands from under work piece.

Angle cutting (pic.4-5)
To set the cutting angle to one of the preset angles of 15°, 30°or 45°.
Loosen the two hexagon screws (Pic.4) located on the underside of
the machine usingthe hexagon key provided, slightly raise the base
until the base can be moved to one of the preset cutting angles shown
on the angle scale. (Pic.5). Finally re-tighten the hex screws.
Pendulum action (pic.6)
The Jigsaw is equipped with an adjustable pendulum action roller
(Pic.6). This roller moves back and forth to make the blade cut with
a pendulum motion. As the adjustment lever is moved from numbers
0-2, the degree of pendulum motion increases (Pic.6).
(MPK500) Blade fi tting (pic.7)
To fit the blade, loosen the 2 hex screws (Pic.6) through the guard
on the front of the machine. Slide the blade (fig 7) into the locating
groove with teeth pointing forward, tighten the hex screws with hex
