Manual MICROMOT Jigsaw STS 12/E
Technical Data:
General:
This very lightweight and powerful machine is ideal for
curved cuts in wood up to 3/8” (10 mm), circuit boards up to
7/64” (3 mm) and non-ferrous metals up to 3/32” (2,5 mm)
thickness. Its weight makes it easy to handle and thus allows
for precise control of the cutting action.
-
Voltage: 2 – 18 Volt
-
Direct current (DC) motor, 5 poles, current consumption
max. 100 W.
-
Electronic speed control for strokes from 2,000 –
5,000/min, stroke: 15/64” (6 mm)
-
Noise development max.70 dB (A)
Legend (fig. 1):
-
Cutting depth: in wood up to 3/8” (10 mm), in circuit-
boards up to 7/64” (3 mm), in non-ferrous metal up to
3/32” (2,5 mm).
1. speed control knob
2. plug for connection for power supply (AC adapter)
-
Housing made of fiberglass reinforced Nylon.
3. on/off switch
-
3 ¼” (100 cm) spiral cord.
4. saw table
5. piston
Note:
6. saw blade
The electronic speed-control is thyristor-regulated.
Therefore it works only, when the unit is connected to non
stabilized power supplies (e.g. all PROXXON MICROMOT
power supplies). When connecting the unit to a battery, it will
run full speed, only.
Power Supplies for Jigsaw STS 12/E:
For operating this unit we recommend PROXXON
MICROMOT power supplies NG 2/S or NG 5/E or other
power supply units with a minimum capacity of 2.0 A
(24 VA).

Inserting and changing the saw blade (fig. 2):
A material oriented speed/stroke can be adjusted by turning
the control knob 1. Use higher speeds for wood, aluminum,
brass and circuit boards, lower speeds for plastics, specially
thin materials and very delicate work pieces.
Do not connect the saw to the power supply before inserting
the blade and remove the plug from the adapter, when
changing the saw blade during operation!
Fig. 2
Important: Only sharp and faultless saw blades will
guarantee adequate cutting results. Please make sure to
replace worn out saw blades in time and verify you have the
appropriate saw blade, when working with different types of
material.
Safety regulations:
x Do not lay down machine on your workbench while
running.
x Do not leave running machine unattended.
Insert the saw blade 1 into the slot of the piston and tighten
the clamping screw 2, using the included Allen key.
x Let children only operate the unit, if under supervision of
adults.
x Wear safety goggles.
x Make sure that the work piece is always securely
fastened.
Working with the unit (see fig. 3):
x Do not force the unit. Let the saw blade do the work!
Connect the jigsaw to the chosen power source (see above)
and switch it on via the rocker switch 2:
x Store saw blades securely.
x Unplug the tool before carrying out any work on the unit.
Fig. 3
x In any case ensure that the switch is set to the off
position in order to prevent the unit from starting up again
accidentally or unexpectedly.

Maintenance:
Lubricate the piston at regular intervals (after approx. 30
minutes of operation) with one drop of machine oil
(see fig. 4).

Try to keep the unit as clean as possible. Other maintenance
work is not necessary.
