Beveling the Shoe (Fig. E)
To Bevel the Shoe
1. Remove the dust extraction accessories if they are mounted
to the tool as the tool will not bevel if they are attached.
Refer to Dust Extractionsection.
2. Unlock the shoe by pulling the shoe bevel lever
8
to
theside.
3. Slide the shoe
7
forward to release it from the 0° positive
stopposition.
NOTE: The shoe can be beveled to the left or to the right
at a maximum of 45° in either direction. There are visible
detents at 15° and 30°.
4. Once the desired bevel angle is achieved, lock the shoe in
position:
a. For 0° and 45° bevel angles, slide the shoe back and lock
the shoe by moving the bevel lever back under the body
of the jig saw.
b. For all angles between 0° and 45°, lock with bevel
leveronly.
Cutting Action—Orbital or Straight (Fig. F)
This jig saw is equipped with four cutting actions, three orbital
and one straight. Orbital action has a more aggressive blade
motion and is designed for cutting in soft materials like wood
or plastic. Orbital action provides a faster cut, but with a less
smooth cut across the material. In orbital action, the blade
moves forward during the cutting stroke in addition to the up
and downmotion.
NOTE: Metal or hardwoods should never be cut in orbitalaction.
To adjust the cutting action, move the orbital action lever
6
between the four cutting positions: 0, 1, 2, and 3. Position 0 is
straight cutting. Positions 1, 2, and 3 are orbital cutting. The
aggressiveness of the cut increase as the lever is adjusted from
one to three, with three being the most aggressivecut.
Dust Blower (Fig. G)
The dust blower
19
helps clear the cutting area of debris
created from theblade.
Dust Extraction (Fig. A, H)
WARNING: Dust can be hazardous to health. Always
work with a dust extractor. Always observe the national
regulations for work with dust emittingtools.
The dust extraction chute in combination with the dust
extraction shroud helps extract dust from the workpiece surface,
when connected to a suitable dust extractionsystem.
NOTE: The tool will not bevel if the dust extraction accessories
are attached to thetool.
1. Place the dust extraction shroud
15
onto the finger
guard
5
(Fig. A) until it clicks intoplace.
2. Slide the dust chute
16 from the back of the tool until
it snaps into the dust shroud. Be sure the adapter end is
facingup.
3. To connect a vacuum to the dust chute
16
, place a
AirLock (DWV9000), found on all full size
vacuum
hoses, over the dust collection port, and twist the collar
to lock it into place. The dust chute will also fit a standard
35mmconnector.
Removeable Anti-Scratch Shoe Cover (Fig. I)
The anti-scratch shoe cover
17
should be used when cutting
surfaces that scratch easily, such as laminate, veneer orpaint.
To attach anti-scratch shoe cover
17
, place the front of the
shoe
7
into the front of the anti-scratch shoe cover and lower
the jig saw. The anti-scratch shoe cover will click securely onto
the rear of theshoe.
To remove anti-scratch shoe cover, grasp the anti-scratch shoe
cover from the bottom; holding onto the two rear tabs
18
remove the anti-scratch shoecover.
Anti-Splinter Insert (Fig. I, J)
NOTE: Do not use the anti-splinter insert with the flush
cuttingbladeDT2074.
The anti-splinter insert
20
should be used when trying to
minimize tear-out, especially when cutting veneer, laminate, or
finished surfaces, such as paint. The anti-splinter insert should
be installed into the anti-scratch shoe cover
17
. If the no-mar
cover is not used, install anti-splinter insert into shoe
7
.
Setting the Electronic Sawing Speed
(Fig. A, K)
DCS334
To preset the sawing speed, turn the speed control dial
3
to the
desired level. The higher the number on the speed control dial,
the higher the sawing speed. The sawing speed varies with the
pressure exerted on the variable speed trigger
1
, but will not
exceed the speed that is set by the speed control dial
3
. The
required setting depends on the thickness and kind ofmaterial.
NOTE: Use high speeds for sawing soft materials such aswood.
DCS335
The speed control dial
3
can be used for advance setting of the
required range ofspeed.
1. Turn the electronic control dial to the required level. The
DCS335 will turn on at that speed when the on/off switch is
moved to the ON position. The required setting depends on
the thickness and kind ofmaterial.
NOTE: Use high speeds for sawing soft materials such aswood.
Worklights
The worklights are located on either side of the blade. To turn
on the worklight, depress the trigger (DCS334) or switch on the
on/off switch (DCS335). Worklights will remain on 20 seconds
after the tool is turned on, or as long as your cut lasts.
NOTE: The worklights are for lighting the immediate work
surface and are not intended to be used as aflashlight.
Prior to Operation
Make sure your battery pack is (fully)charged.
