that all foreign objects have been removed, e .g .
nails, screws, etc . .
♦
Ensure that the ventilation slits are not covered .

Switch the appliance on before moving it
towards the material to be worked .
♦
Switch the appliance off immediately if the saw
blade jams .
Open up the sawn gap using a suitable tool
and pull out the sabre saw .
■
Use the appropriate saw blade and stroke rate
for the material to be worked .

Sawing flush to edges:
Using flexible saw blades with a suitable corre-
sponding length, you can saw off protruding work-
pieces such as pipes flush to the wall .
Proceed as follows:
1 . Place the saw blade directly against the wall .
2 . Bend it by applying lateral pressure to the sabre
saw so that the footplate makes contact with
the wall .
3 . Switch the appliance on as described and saw
off the work piece by applying constant pres-
