switch (3). The further you push
the switch, the higher the stroke speed.
To switch o

6.2 Setting the pendulum action
(Fig. 14/Item 8)
The strength of the pendulum action of the saw
blade (12) can be adjusted using the selector
switch for pendulum action (8).
You can adjust the cutting speed, cutting perfor-
mance and appearance of the cut to the workpie-
ce you want to saw.
Set the selector switch for pendulum action (8) to
one of the following positions:
Position A
= no pendulum action
Material:
Rubber, ceramic, aluminium, steel
Please note:
For
fi
ne and clean cuts, thin materi-
als (e.g. sheet steel) and hard materials.
Position B
= small pendulum action
Material:
Plastic, wood, aluminium
Please note:
For hard materials.
Position C
= medium pendulum action
Material:
Wood
Position D
= large pendulum action
Material:
Wood
Please note:
For soft materials and sawing along
the grain
The best combination of speed and pendulum
action depends on the material you want to saw.
We recommend you to make a trial cut on a waste
piece in order to check the ideal settings.
6.3 Making cuts
Caution!
•
Make sure that the On/Off switch (3) is not
depressed. Only then should you connect the
battery pack to the equipment.
•
Do not switch on the jigsaw until you have
fitted a saw blade.
•
Use only saw blades that are in perfect con-
dition. Replace blunt, bent or cracked saw
blades immediately.
•
Place the saw foot flat on the workpiece you
want to saw. Switch on the jigsaw.
•
Allow the saw blade to accelerate until it
reaches full speed. Then slowly move the saw
blade along the cutting line. Exert only gentle
pressure on the saw blade as you do so.
•
When cutting metal, apply a suitable coolant
along the line you want to cut.
6.4 Sawing out sections (Fig. 15)
Drill a 10 mm hole in the section you want to saw
out. Insert the saw blade into this hole and start to
saw out the required section.
6.5 Making parallel cuts (Fig. 16)
•
Mount the parallel stop and adjust as required
(see section 5.3).
•
Observe the instructions in section 6.3.
•
Cut as shown in Fig. 16.
6.6 Miter cuts (Fig. 9)
•
Set the angle on the soleplate (see section
5.4).
•
Observe the instructions in section 6.3.
•
Cut as shown in Fig. 9.
6.7 LED lamp (Fig. 1/Item 4)
The LED lamp (4) can be used in poor lighting
conditions to additionally illuminate the cutting
position. The LED light (4) will come on automati-
cally as soon as you press the On/O
ff
switch (3).
7. Cleaning, maintenance and
ordering of spare parts
Danger!
Always pull out the mains power plug before star-
ting any cleaning work.
7.1 Cleaning
•
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the
motor housing free of dirt and dust as far as
possible. Wipe the equipment with a clean
cloth or blow it with compressed air at low
pressure.
•
We recommend that you clean the device
immediately each time you have finished
using it.
•
Clean the equipment regularly with a moist
cloth and some soft soap. Do not use
cleaning agents or solvents; these could at-
tack the plastic parts of the equipment. Ensu-
re that no water can seep into the device. The
ingress of water into an electric tool increases
the risk of an electric shock.
