Both jigsaws are loaded with a wide range of user-friendly features. The first is a four-position orbital cut control system, which allows users to select the speed that best matches their cutting needs. Next, each SKIL jigsaws is equipped with the new SKIL Stable Foot Adjustment that allows users extend the foot further forward onto the material, allowing for a more stable and accurate cut.
