Adjusting the footplate
RISK OF INJURY!
► Always remove the plug from the power
socket before working on the appliance.
♦ Adjust the footplate according to the cutting
depth.
♦ To do so, undo the locking lever and move
the footplate to the corresponding position.
♦ Lock this position by closing the locking lever .
Adjusting the pendulum stroke
♦ You can use the pendulum stroke switch to
adjust the pendular movement of the saw blade
. You can achieve fine, clean-cut edges with-
out pendulum movement (setting "0"). Deacti-
vate pendulum movement when working on thin
workpieces. You can achieve an increasingly
fast work rate if the pendulum stroke is activated
(setting "I").
Use
Switching on and off
Switching on:
♦ First press the safety lock-out and then the
ON/OFF switch . Afterwards, release the
safety lock-out .
Switching off:
♦ Release the ON/OFF switch .
Adjusting the rotational speed
Press the ON/OFF switch lightly for a low speed.
Increasing the pressure increases the speed.
NOTE
► The integrated motor brake ensures rapid
stoppage.
Guiding the sabre blade safely
To adapt to the workpiece and for safe placement,
the footplate can be swivelled. It must always be
in contact with the workpiece when the appliance
is running.
Practical advice on sawing
♦ Check the material to be worked to make sure
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.
■ Saw blades optimised for your sabre saw are
available from retail stores in different lengths
for various purposes.
■ Saw the material at a constant speed.
