Jigsaw

Please always read manual where provided before use to avoid damage to yourself or items.

ABOUT THIS ITEM

This is a cabled jigsaw. It is great for cutting curved lines through sheets of plywood or similar materials. Because the blade is thin, it is able to turn around sweeping corners and is a great way to cut wholes in the middle of pieces of wood.
  • Power: 750W

WHAT IT DOES

Used for curved or detail cutting across pieces of flat timber, and along wide pieces of timber, and for cutting up boards (plywood, MDF, laminates etc). If you want to do longer, straighter cuts, you’ll need a circular saw instead. You may prefer the jigsaw for straight cuts too if you aren’t familiar with power tools and if the cut doesn’t have to be dead straight. It’s harder to get a straight cut with a jigsaw, but it’s less scary than the circular saw.

HOW TO USE IT

If you aren’t experienced with jigsaws, look at these resources. A lot can go wrong with a jigsaw, particularly if you clamp/support the workpiece incorrectly.

YOU MAY ALSO NEED

  • Essential - Safety glasses, ear defenders
  • Recommended - Dust mask (A good blade shouldn't produce fine dust, but a dust mask is still a good idea.); Clamps (It’s very important to hold/support the workpiece correctly. See the advice in the web resources above.)
  • Useful - Measuring and marking equipment: ruler, try square etc. (Measure twice, cut once…)
