Jigsaw Operations
Replacing/Inserting the Saw Blade
When mounting the saw blade, wear protective gloves. There is danger of injury
when touching the saw blade.
Selecting a saw blade
An overview of recommended saw blades can be found at the end of these
instructions. Use only T-shank saw blades. The saw blade should not be longer
than required for the intended cut.
Use a thin saw blade for narrow curve cuts.
Inserting a Saw Blade (See figure A)
Clean the shank of the saw blade before
inserting it
.
An unclean shank cannot be fastened
securely.
Turn the SDS clamping lever counter-clockwise,
then insert the saw blade into the hole until it
latches. The SDS lever will automatically snap to
the rear, and the saw blade will now be locked.
Do not manually press the lever towards the rear
position, as it can damage the machine.
Check the tight seating of the saw blade
. A loose saw blade can fall out and
lead to injuries.
Ejecting the Saw Blade (See figure B)
When ejecting the saw blade, hold the machine
in such a manner than no persons or animals can
be injured by the ejected saw blade
.
Turn the SDS clamping lever counter-clockwise
and the saw blade will be ejected.
