switCHing tHe deViCe on and off
4.3.1.
Once the battery is installed pull the trigger to operate.
4.3.2.
Lock the trigger in the OFF position using the sliding switch above the trigger.
4.4.
seleCting tHe stroke rate
4.4.1.
The required stroke rate depends on various factors. For example, the workpiece as well as the activity and the working conditions
have an impact on the required stroke rate. Working with plastic or aluminium, for instance, requires a low stroke rate. Entering the
material during plunge-cutting, for instance, requires a high stroke rate.
4.5.

during norMal operation

4.5.1.
During normal operation the stroke rate is controlled by pressing the on/off switch:
• Light pressure = low stroke rate
• Firm pressure = high stroke rate
• Press in completely = maximum stroke rate
4.6.
sawing
4.6.1.
Before sawing wood, chipboards, building materials etc., check the above for foreign objects, e.g. nails, screws or similar. If
required, remove the foreign objects or use a suitable saw blade.
4.6.2.
Only use intact, flawless saw blades. Bent, blunt or otherwise damaged saw blades could break.
4.6.3.
When sawing lightweight construction materials, make sure to observe the legal regulations and recommendations of the material
manufacturers.
4.6.4.
Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.
4.6.5.
If the saw blade gets jammed in the workpiece, switch off the power tool immediately. The sawing gap should be slightly widened
with a suitable tool so that you can pull out the power tool.
4.6.6.
Switch on the power tool and guide it towards the workpiece to be processed. Place the guide shoe on the surface of the
workpiece. Process the workpiece with an even forward motion and contact pressure. After completing the sawing operation, switch
off the power tool.
4.6.7.
The saw blade should not be longer than required for the intended cut.
4.7.

plunge-Cutting

4.7.1.
Only soft materials such as plasterboard or the like may be processed using the
plunge-cutting method.
do not process any metals using the plunge-cutting method.

4.7.2.
Use short saw blades for plunge-cutting.
4.7.3.
First place the edge of the guide shoe on the workpiece before switching the power
tool on, see Schematic representation plunge-cutting (fig.2).
note:
The saw blade must not be in contact with the workpiece.
4.7.4.
Select the maximum stroke rate and allow the saw blade to slowly plunge into the
workpiece. To do so, bring the saw blade closer to the workpiece while maintaining
contact between the edge of the guide shoe and the workpiece.
4.7.5.
As soon as the guide shoe rests on the workpiece, you can continue working along
the cutting line.
4.8.
flusH Cutting(fig.3)
4.8.1.
Using elastic bi-metal saw blades you can saw off protruding objects such as water pipes
or the like directly at the wall.
4.8.2.
Make sure that the saw blade extends beyond the diameter or thickness of the object,
otherwise there is a risk of kickbacks.
4.8.3.
Apply lateral pressure on the power tool until the bi-metal saw blade and the side of the
guide shoe are positioned against the wall.
4.8.4.
Saw through the object applying constant lateral pressure.
