JIG SAW / RECIPROCATING SAW MODES (FIGURES F, F1)
The LPS7000 can be used in two different ways:
JIG SAW MODE - Blade teeth face forward as
shown in figure F.
RECIPROCATING MODE - Blade teeth face
downward as shown in figure F1.
The LPS7000 accepts T-shank blades only.
Thin kerf 10tpi or higher blade recommended
.
BLADE CLAMP RELEASE LEVER (FIGURE G)
CAUTION: Burn hazard. Recently used
blades may be hot.
To install blade into saw:
• Push down on the blade clamp release lever (5)
to its full open position as shown.
• Insert blade shank (9) from the front.
• Release the blade clamp release lever (5).
To remove blade from saw:
• Push down on the blade clamp release
lever (5) to its full open position.
• Remove blade.
• Release the blade clamp release lever (5).
WOOD CUTTING
NOTE: Use “T” shank 10tpi or higher, thin kerf blades.
• Before cutting any type of wood, use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your
body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
• Place shoe firmly against work to be cut.
• Switch on saw motor before applying pressure.
• Whenever possible, the shoe must be held firmly against the material being cut. This will
prevent the saw from jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage.
TREE TRIMMING
• Hold shoe firmly against tree branch. If possible, cut close to the trunk to minimize
movement of the branch.
METAL CUTTING (FIGURE H)
NOTE: Use “T” shank 18-24 tpi metal
cutting blade.
• In thin gauge sheet metals it is best to
clamp thin plywood to underside of sheet.
This will ensure a clean cut without excess
vibration or tearing of metal.
• Avoid forcing cutting blade as this reduces
blade life and causes costly blade
breakage.
• When cutting metal piping, do not cut
directly through the pipe as you would saw
a wooden dowel. Instead, cut around the
circumference of the pipe to avoid pinching
the blade. Only one section of the blade
should be in contact with the pipe.
NOTE: You should spread a thin film of oil or other coolant along the line ahead of the
saw cut for easier operation and longer blade life. For cutting aluminum, kerosene is
preferred.
PROJECT TIPS
• Cut only with sharp blades; they cut cleaner, faster and put less strain on the motor
while cutting.
