Operating instructions

WARNING!

Always hold the power tool firmly with both 

hands!

 

Whenever possible, clamp the workpiece 

to be cut in a vice.

The saw has a cutting support. This helps 

to reduce vibrations. It also enables 

square cuts to be made.

After the power tool has been switched 

off, the saw blade continues running 

briefly.

Never touch the saw blade straight after 

use as it may be very hot.

Sawing metal

When sawing metal, use lubricant along the 

cutting line. This stops the material from 

overheating.

Sawing wood

Place the saw square on the workpiece. 

Guide the saw with uniform pressure 

through the wood, pressing the cutting 

support against the workpiece in the 

process.

Sawing directly at the wall

Thanks to the elasticity of bi-metal saw 

blades it is possible to cut pipes flush with 

the wall. To do so, use a saw blade of 

sufficient length that exceeds the diameter 

of the pipe. Position the saw blade flush with 

the wall so that the kink point is outside the 

workpiece to be sawn. 

Plunge cuts

The saw is suitable for plunge cuts in wood 

and plastic. Use only short saw blades 

(<150 mm) to perform plunge cuts!

Switch on orbital stroke to perform 

plunge cuts.

Place the saw on the workpiece with the 

bottom edge of the cutting support in 

such a way that the saw blade does not 

touch the workpiece. 

Switch on the saw. 

Press the cutting support firmly against 

the workpiece and swing the saw 

forwards.

Slowly plunge the saw blade into the 

workpiece.

When the cutting support is resting fully 

on the workpiece, continue sawing along 

the desired cutting line.

NOTE

Do not perform plunge cuts in metal.
Other information

– The use of “sharp” cutting accessories 

increases performance and the service 

life of the power tool.

– After work, clean the power tool and 

store in the carry case in a dry location.

Maintenance and care

WARNING!

Remove the battery before carrying out any 

work on the power tool.

Cleaning

WARNING!

If metals are worked over a prolonged 

period, conductive dust may become 

deposited inside the housing.
