being cut to reduce saw vibration, blade jumping and
blade breakage. (See Fig.2)
If you need to reduce the cutting capacity of your
tool (depth of cut), the pivoting foot plate (2) may be
adjusted as follows. Loosen the two securing screws
(A) on the underside of the front housing with the
spanner (8) provided. Slide the pivoting blade foot (2)
to the required position. Tighten both screws (A) and
check that the blade foot (2) is firmly latched. (See
Fig.3)
2. SWITCHING ON AND OFF
Depress the On/Off switch to start and release it to
stop your tool.
3. CONTROLING THE STROKE RATE
Increasing or reducing the pressure on the On/Off
switch (6) enables stepless stroke-rate control of the
switched-on machine.
The required stroke rate is dependent on the material
and the working conditions and can be determined
by a practical trial.
Reducing the stroke rate is recommended when the
saw blade engages in the material as well as when
sawing plastic and aluminium.
4. CUTTING INSTRUCTION
Plunge cutting (See Fig.4)
The plunge cutting procedure is only
suitable for treating soft materials such
as wood, plaster board or similar! Do not
work metal materials with the plunge cutting
procedure!
Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting.
Place the machine with the edge of the blade foot
(2) onto the workpiece and switch on. For power
tools with stroke speed control, set the maximum
stroke speed. Press the power tool firmly against the
workpiece and allow the saw blade to slowly plunge
into the workpiece.
As soon as the blade foot (2) fully lays on the surface
of the workpiece, continue sawing alongside the
desired cutting line. For certain work, the saw blade
(1) can also be inserted turned through by 180°
and the sabre saw can be guided accordingly in a
reversed manner.
Flush cutting (See Fig.5)
Pay attention that the saw blade always extends
beyond the diameter of the material being
