Speed adjusting dial (For JR3070CT)
1
006025
The strokes per minute can be adjusted just by turning
the adjusting dial. This can be done even while the tool
is running. The dial is marked 1 (lowest speed) to 6 (full
speed). Turn the adjusting dial without positive stops
between 1 and 6 according to your work.
Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the
workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed
may differ with the type or thickness of the workpiece. In
general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces
faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced.

NOTE:
• If the tool is operated continuously at low speeds
for a long period of time, the operation life of the
motor will be reduced.
• The speed adjusting dial can be turned only as far
as 6 and back to 1. Do not force it past 6 or 1, or
the speed adjusting function may no longer work.

Possible to get fine finish, because the rotating speed is
kept constant even under load condition.
Soft start feature

insulation cover before inserting the saw blade. If the
blade clamp lever is in fixed position, rotate the blade
