Remove the battery pack from the machine before

any adjustment or maintenance is carried out.

6.1 Battery pack

Charge the battery pack before use (12).

If performance diminishes, recharge the battery

pack.

"Li-Power" li-ion battery packs have a capacity

and signal indicator: (14)

- Press the (13) button, the LEDs indicate the

charge level.

- If one LED is flashing, the battery pack is almost

flat and must be recharged.

Removal:

Press the battery pack release (11) button and pull

the battery pack (12) forwards

Inserting:

Slide in the battery pack (12) until it engages.

6.2 Inserting, removing saw blade

Do not touch the saw blade immediately

following operation of the tool, as it can be

extremely hot and can lead to skin burns.

1 Pull up lever (6) of saw blade quick-clamping

device upwards and hold in this position.

2 Insert the saw blade as far as it will go or remove

it.

3 Release lever (6).

4 Check that the saw blade is securely seated.

Note: If a saw blade happens to break off and

cannot be removed by hand from the saw blade

quick-clamping device, pull up lever (6) and hold.

Engage the tip of a saw blade in the broken section

and pull it out. A fine-toothed metal saw blade is

best suited for this task. See Fig. A, page 3.

Tip: The best possible access to the saw blade

quick-clamping device (5) is achieved when it is in

its outermost position. If necessary: switch of the

machine, press the trigger switch (9) lightly to move

the saw blade quick-clamping device into its

outermost position.

6.3 Setting the guide

The cutting depth can be limited by shifting the

guide (4) (e.g. when sawing in front of a wall).

Occasionally shift the guide (4) to achieve even

wear of the saw blade.

1 Remove hexagon wrench (2) from its depot (1).

2 Release both screws (3) with hexagon wrench.

3 Shift guide (4) to desired position.

4Tighten both screws (3) again with hexagon

wrench.

5Insert hexagon wrench for safekeeping in its

depot.

Check guide for correct seating.

7.1 Switching on and off

Switching on: Press switch-on locking button (8)

and hold in; then actuate the trigger (9).

(The switch-on locking button (8) can be pressed

from the left and the right machine sides.)

To switch off: release the trigger switch (9).

7.2 Stepless stroke rate setting

The stroke rate can be changed steplessly by

varying the pressure applied to the trigger switch

(9), thus adapting it to the material and working

conditions.

7.3 Working Directions

Sawing:

Use a saw blade geared to the material to be sawn.

Press the machine with the guide (4) against the

workpiece. Switch on the machine, and only then

guide the saw blade against the workpiece.

Do not make contact with any objects or with the

ground with the moving saw blade (danger of recoil

and saw blade fracture!)

Adapt the stroke rate to the material to the sawn.

Avoid excessive pressure on the saw blade

(particularly in the case of long saw blades).

If the saw blade jams, turn the machine off

immediately. Widen the sawn gap slightly with a

suitable tool and take out the machine.

After completing the sawing cut, switch off the

machine and only take it out of the sawn gap to

place it down once the saw blade has come to

a standstill (danger of recoil).

Plunge cuts:

Plunge cuts may only be made in soft materials

such as wood or plastic. Only use short saw blades.

Hold the machine with both hands at the intended

handles, take a secure stance and concentrate on

the work.

See Fig. B, page 2: The machine is pressed with the

edge of the guide (4) against the workpiece. The

saw blade does not make contact with the

workpiece. Switch on the machine. The corner of
