Operation
Operating Modes
Before any work on the machine itself (e.g. maintenance, tool change etc..) as
well as during transport, remove the battery from the power tool. There is
danger of injury when unintentionally activating the tool.
Orbital Action Settings
The four orbital action settings allow for optimal adaptation of cutting speed,
cutting capacity and cutting pattern to the material being sawed.
The orbital action can be adjusted with the adjusting lever (11), even during
operation.
The optimal orbital action setting for the respective application can be
determined through practical testing. The following recommendations apply:
•
Select a lower orbital action setting (or switch it off) for a finer, cleaner
cutting edge.
•
For thin materials such as sheet metal, switch the orbital action off.
•
For hard materials such as steel, work with low orbital action.
•
For soft materials and when sawing in the direction of the grain, work with
maximum orbital action.
Starting Operation
Inserting the battery
Use only the original lithium ion batteries that were supplied with the tool
.
Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard.
Switching ON and OFF
•
To
start
the machine, press the safety switch (1), then press and hold the
ON/OFF switch (2).
•
To
switch off
the machine, release the ON/OFF switch (2).
Note
: For safety reasons the ON/OFF switch (2) cannot be locked; it must
remain pressed manually during the entire operation.
To save energy, only switch the power tool on while using it.
Controlling the Stroke Rate
Increasing or reducing the pressure on the ON/OFF switch (2) enables stepless
stroke-rate control of the switched-on machine.
Light pressure on the ON/OFF switch (2) results in a low stroke rate. Increasing
the pressure will likewise increase the stroke rate.
The required stroke rate is dependent on the material and the working
conditions, and can be determined by practical trial.
