READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
1. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read owner's
manual carefully. Learn its applications and
limitations as well as the specific potential
hazards related to this tool.
2. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRICAL SHOCK by
preventing body contact with grounded
surfaces. For example: Pipes, radiators,
ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
3. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working
order.
4. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas
and benches invite accidents.
5. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don't
use power tool in damp or wet locations or
expose to rain. Keep work area well lit.
6. KEEP CHILDREN AND VISITORS AWAY. All
visitors should wear safety glasses and be
kept a safe distance from work area. Do not let
visitors contact tool or extension cord.
7. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use tools
should be stored in a dry and high or locked-
up place - out of the reach of children.
8. DON'T FORCE TOOL. It will do the job better
and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
9. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don't force small tool or
attachment to do the job of a heavy duty tool.
Don't use tool for purpose not intended - for
example - A circular saw should never be used
for cutting tree limbs or logs.
10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear
loose clothing or jewelry that can get caught in
tool's moving parts. Rubber gloves and nonskid
footwear are recommended when working
outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to
contain long hair and keep it from being drawn
into nearby air vents.
11. ALWAYS WEAR SAFETY GLASSES.
Everyday eyeglasses have only impact-
resistant lenses; they are NOT safety glasses.
12. PROTECT YOUR LUNGS. Wear a face or
dust mask if operation is dusty.
with unstable support.
17. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools
sharp at all times, and clean for best and saf-
est performance. Follow instructions for lubri-
cating and changing accessories.
18. DISCONNECT TOOLS. When not in use,
before servicing, or when changing
attachments, blades, bits, cutters, etc., all tools
should be disconnected from power supply.
19. REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND
WRENCHES. Form habit of checking to see
that keys and adjusting wrenches are removed
from tool before turning it on.
20. AVOID ACCIDENTAL STARTING. Don't carry
plugged-in tools with finger on switch. Be sure
switch is off when plugging in.
21. MAKE SURE YOUR EXTENSION CORD IS
IN GOOD CONDITION. When using an exten-
sion cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to
carry the current your product will draw. An
undersized cord will cause a drop in line volt-
age resulting in loss of power and overheating.
A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is
recommended for an extension cord 50 feet or
less in length. A cord exceeding 100 feet is not
recommended. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gage. The smaller the gage number, the
heavier the cord.
22. OUTDOOR USE EXTENSION CORDS. When
tool is used outdoors, use only extension cords
suitable for use outdoors. Outdoor approved
cords are marked with the suffix W-A, for example
- SJTW-A or SJOW-A.
23. KEEP BLADES CLEAN AND SHARP. Sharp
blades minimize stalling and kickback. Also,
keep blades properly tightened at all times.
24. KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM CUTTING
AREA. Keep hands away from blades. Do not
reach underneath work while blade is cutting.
Do not attempt to remove material, scrap, or
chips while blade is cutting.
25. NEVER USE IN AN EXPLOSIVE ATMO-
SPHERE. Normal sparking of the motor could
ignite flammable liguids, gases, or fumes.
26. INSPECT TOOL CORDS PERIODICALLY and
if damaged, have repaired at your nearest
AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER. Stay
constantly aware of cord location and keep it
well away from the blade.
13. PROTECT YOUR HEARING. Wear hearing
protection during extended periods of operation.
14. DON'T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by
cord or yank it to disconnect from receptacle.
Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges.
15. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold
work. It's safer than using your hand and it
frees both hands to operate tool.
27. INSPECT EXTENSION CORDS PERIODI-
CALLY and replace if damaged.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
CHIP SHIELD
Your saw has a precision built electric motor. It should be
connected to a power supply that is 120 volts, 60 Hz, AC
only (normal household current). Do not operate this tool
on direct current (DC). A substantial voltage drop will cause
a loss of power and overheating. If your tool does not operate
when plugged into an outlet, double-check the power supply.
A clear plastic chip shield is installed on the front of your
saw for protection against flying dust and chips. The flip-up
design of the chip shield makes installing and removing
blades easier. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, DO NOT USE
SAW WITHOUT CHIP SHIELD PROPERLY IN PLACE.

CONTROL SELECTOR
NOTE: If the variable speed control selector is fully turned in
the clockwise direction (zero setting) your saw may not run.
Fig. 3
NOTE: If you desire not to use the variable speed control
selector, turn it in the full counterclockwise direction. This will
allow the speed of your saw to be controlled by the amount of
switch trigger depression.
The following guidelines may be used in determining correct
speed for various applications:
LOW speed is ideal when minimum speed and power is
required, for example, starting cuts.
Avoid running your saw at low speeds for extended periods
of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may
cause your saw to become overheated. If this occurs, cool
your saw by running it without a load and at full speed.
MEDIUM speed is suitable for cutting hard metals, plastics,
and laminates.
HIGH speed produces best results when maximum power is
required, for example, cutting wood. Soft metals such as
aluminum, brass, and copper also require high speeds.

GENERAL CUTTING
See Figure 6.
Rest the front of the saw base on the workpiece and align
cutting edge of the blade with the line on your workpiece.
Make sure the power cord is out of your way and not in the
line of cut. Start your saw and move it forward on the work
surface. Apply downward pressure to keep the saw steady
and only enough forward pressure to keep the blade cutting.
0
DO NOT FORCE YOUR SAW
Forcing your saw may overheat the motor and break saw
blades. Broken blades can be reused by loosening the blade
screws until the portion left in the blade clamp drops out,
then putting the remainder of the blade back into the blade
clamp and retightening the blade screws. It may be neces-
sary to flatten the tooth set in the area to be inserted into the
blade clamp when using broken blades.
TO DECREASE
ORBITAL SETTING
0
ORBITAL MOTION
See Figure 6.
TO INCREASE
ORBITAL SETTING
The blade of your saw cuts in orbital motion. This feature is
adjustable and provides faster more efficient cutting. With
orbital motion the blade cuts through your work in the
upstroke but does not drag across your work in the
downstroke. The higher settings should be used when fast
cutting in soft material is desired. The lower settings should
be used when cutting materials with more resistance.
Fig. 6
STRAIGHT CUT
See Figure 6.
A straight cut can be made by clamping a piece of wood or
straightedge to the workpiece and guiding the edge of your
saw against it. Make the cut from one direction only: don't cut
halfway and complete the cut from the opposite end.
0
SCROLL CUTTING
See Figure 7.
Scroll cuts can be made with your jig saw by guiding the
direction of the cut with applied pressure on the handle as
shown in figure 7.
WARNING:
Excessive side pressure to the blade could result in
broken blades or damage to the material being cut.

OPERATION
METAL CUTTING
Many kinds of metals can be cut with your saw. Be careful
not to twist or bend the blades. DO NOT FORCE. If the blade
chatters or vibrates excessively, use a finer-tooth blade or
higher speed. If blade heats excessively, use lower speed.
If blade teeth become filled or clogged when cutting soft
metals, such as aluminum, use a coarser-tooth blade or
lower speed. We recommend use of oil when cutting metals
to keep blades cool, increase cutting action, and prolong
blade life. Clamp the work firmly and saw close to the
clamping point to eliminate any vibration of the work being
cut.
Whencuttingconduit, pipeorangleiron, clampworkinavise
if possible and saw close to the vise. To cut thin sheet
materials, "sandwich" the material between hardboard or
plywood and clamp the layers to eliminate vibration and
material tearing. By doing this, the material will be cut
smoothly. Lay out your pattern or line of cut on top of the
"sandwich".
IMPORTANT–Whencuttingmetal, keepexposedportionof
saw bar clean and free of metal chips by wiping frequently
with an oily cloth. Use extreme caution in disposing of oily
cloth after completion of job to prevent potential fire hazard.
MAINTENANCE
When electric tools are used on fiberglass boats, sports cars,
wallboard, spackling compounds, or plaster, it has been
found that they are subject to accelerated wear and possible
premature failure, as the fiberglass chips and grindings are
highly abrasive to bearings, brushes, commutators, etc.
Consequently it is not recommended that this tool be used
for extended work on any fiberglass material, wallboard,
spackling compounds, or plaster. During any use on these
materials, it is extremely important that the tool is cleaned
frequently by blowing with an air jet.
WARNING:
When servicing use only identical Ryobi replacement
parts. Use of any other parts may create a hazard or
cause product damage.
GENERAL
Avoid using solvents when cleaning plastic parts. Most
plastics are susceptible to damage from various types of
commercial solvents and may be damaged by their use.
Use clean cloths to remove dirt, carbon dust, etc.
WARNING:
Always wear safety goggles, or safety glasses with side
shields during power tool operation or when blowing dust.
If operation is dusty, also wear a dust mask.
WARNING:
Do not at any time let brake fluids, gasoline, petroleum-
based products, penetrating oils, etc. come in contact
with plastic parts. They contain chemicals that can
damage, weaken, or destroy plastic.
EXTENSION CORDS
Theuseofanyextensioncordwillcausesomelossofpower.
To keep the loss to a minimum and to prevent tool from
overheating, use an extension cord that is heavy enough to
carry the current the tool will draw.
WARNING:
Check extension cords before each use. If damaged,
replaceimmediately. Neverusetoolwithadamagedcord
since touching the damaged area could cause electrical
shock resulting in serious injury.
A wire gage size (A.W.G.) of at least 16 is recommended for
an extension cord 50 feet or less in length. When working
outdoors, use an extension cord that is suitable for outdoor
use. The cord's jacket will be marked WA.
LUBRICATION
WARNING:
Keep extension cords away from the cutting area and
position the cord so that it will not get caught on lumber,
tools, etc., during cutting operation.
All of the bearings in this tool are lubricated with a sufficient
amount of high grade lubricant for the life of the unit under
normaloperatingconditions. Therefore,nofurtherlubrication
is required.
