NOTE: Battery pack performance will decrease under heavy use conditions when temperature is below 32°F (0°C). As the battery cells heat up the performance will improve. INSTALLING AND REMOVING THE BATTERY PACK (FIGURE D,E) CAUTION: Make certain the lock-off button is engaged to prevent switch actuation before removing or installing battery. Installing the battery pack: Insert the metal terminal end of the battery pack into the product until you hear the lock snap into place and the VPXTM logo shows through the window as shown in figure D. CAUTION: The battery can only be inserted in one direction. If the battery does not fit, remove and reverse the orientation. Do not force it. Removing the battery pack: Press the release button as shown in figure E and firmly pull the battery pack out of the handle. Insert the battery pack into the charger (figure B) as described in the charger section of this manual. 9 90520983 VPX1301 Cut SAW 7/19/07 3:03 PM Page 10 TRIGGER SWITCH (FIGURE F) The tool is equipped with a switch lock-off feature to prevent unintentional operation. • To operate the tool, slide the switch lock-off button (2) back and hold it as you pull the on/off switch (1). • After the tool is running, release the switch lock-off button. The tool will continue to run as long as the trigger is depressed. • To turn off, release the trigger switch. There is no provision for locking the tool on. • Hold saw firmly with one hand or both hands (figure H) while cutting. Whenever possible, the saw shoe must be held firmly against the material being cut. This will prevent the saw from jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage. BLADE CLAMP RELEASE LEVER (FIGURE G) The Black & Decker VPX1301 accepts both T-shank and universal shank jig saw blades. 1mm or thicker blade recommended. CAUTION: Recently used blades may be hot. To install blade into saw: • Push down on the blade clamp release lever to its full open position as shown in Figure G. • Insert blade shank from the front. • Release the blade clamp release lever. To remove blade from saw: • Push down on the blade clamp release lever to its full open position. • Remove blade. • Release the blade clamp release lever. WOOD CUTTING WARNING: Use extra caution when cutting overhead and pay particular attention to overhead wires which may be hidden from view. Anticipate the path of falling branches and debris ahead of time. WARNING: Inspect work site for hidden gas pipes, water pipes, or electrical wires before making blind or plunge cuts. Failure to do so may result in explosion, property damage, electric shock, and/or serious personal injury. • 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. METAL CUTTING (FIGURE H) • Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a coarse blade for non-ferrous materials. • In thin gauge sheet metals it is best to clamp wood to both sides 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. POCKET CUTTING - WOOD ONLY (FIGURE I) Pocket cutting is used to cut a hole in a piece of material without cutting from the side. • Measure the surface area to be cut and mark clearly with a pencil.etc. • Tilt saw forward and rest front of the shoe on material to be cut. • Switch the tool on. Grip the handle firmly and raise the back edge of tool until the blade cuts smoothly into the material. Always be sure blade reaches its complete depth before starting to cut. • Allow the blade to come to a complete stop before lifting saw from material. • When starting each new cut, repeat the above steps. 10 90520983 VPX1301 Cut SAW 7/19/07 3:03 PM Page 11 TREE TRIMMING • Use a coarse blade when cutting tree limbs. Hold shoe firmly against tree branch. If possible, cut close to the trunk to minimize movement of the branch. PROJECT TIPS • Cut only with sharp blades; they cut cleaner, faster and put less strain on the motor while cutting. • Place blade and shoe lightly against work to be cut. This will improve operator control and minimize vibration. • For longer blade life, use bi-metal blades. Th...
