Opsætning og montering

Udpakning

Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Retain packaging for future transport or storage.

Mounting the Jig Saw

The Atlas 24-inch Jig Saw should be securely mounted to a sturdy workbench. Use appropriate bolts and washers through the mounting holes provided in the base of the machine. Ensure the workbench is stable and level.

Montering af knive

  1. Ensure the power cord is disconnected.
  2. Loosen the blade tension knob.
  3. Insert the blade into the lower blade holder, ensuring it is seated correctly.
  4. Guide the blade through the table insert and into the upper blade holder.
  5. Tighten the upper blade holder screw.
  6. Adjust the blade tension until the blade is taut but not overly stressed. A slight deflection when pressed gently is ideal.

Justering af bordhældning

The saw table can be tilted for bevel cuts. Loosen the table locking knob, adjust the table to the desired angle using the angle scale, and then securely tighten the knob.

Betjeningsvejledning

Før start

  • Verify the blade is correctly installed and tensioned.
  • Sørg for, at emnet er fri for søm, skruer eller andre fremmedlegemer.
  • Adjust the hold-down foot to lightly rest on the workpiece.
  • Connect the saw to a grounded power outlet.

At lave et snit

  1. Placer emnet fast mod bordet.
  2. Turn on the jig saw using the power switch.
  3. Lad saven opnå fuld hastighed, før du begynder at save.

  5. Maintain a firm grip on the workpiece, keeping hands clear of the blade path.
  6. Upon completion of the cut, turn off the saw and wait for the blade to stop completely before removing the workpiece.

Internal Cuts

For internal cuts, drill a pilot hole in the workpiece large enough to insert the blade. Disconnect power, remove the blade, thread it through the pilot hole, and re-install it before proceeding with the cut.
