INGCO S-JS-PK-JS5201, Jig Saw-Pendulum Knob no.19(S-JS-PK-JS5201)

product details:

Function:

The pendulum switch, or knob, controls the movement of the jigsaw’s saw arm. It provides three main settings:

1. Off (No Pendulum Movement): The saw arm remains stationary for precise control during delicate cuts or intricate curves.
2. Low Pendulum Movement: The saw arm has a slight orbital motion, offering a balance between control and cutting speed. Suitable for most general-purpose cutting tasks.
3. High Pendulum Movement: The saw arm swings with a larger orbital motion, increasing cutting speed but potentially reducing blade control. Ideal for faster cuts in softer materials like wood.

Key Features:

• Adjustable Settings: The pendulum knob typically features a lever or dial with markings or symbols indicating the three movement options (off, low, high).
• Improved Cutting Efficiency: The pendulum motion allows the blade to “attack” the material at a sharper angle on the downstroke, resulting in faster chip removal and potentially smoother cuts, especially in thicker materials.
• Reduced User Fatigue: The pendulum action helps to minimize the pushing force required to move the jigsaw, reducing user fatigue during extended use.

Benefits of Using a Pendulum Knob:

• Versatility: Adjusting the pendulum movement allows you to tailor the cutting action to the specific material and desired outcome.
• Faster Cutting: Higher pendulum settings can significantly increase cutting speed in soft materials.
• Reduced User Effort: The pendulum motion reduces the physical effort needed to push the jigsaw, minimizing fatigue.
• Improved Chip Removal: The increased blade movement can help clear sawdust more effectively, leading to cleaner cuts and preventing blade binding.
