Sawing flush to edges:
Using flexible saw blades with a suitable cor-
responding length, you can saw off protruding
workpieces 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
pressure.
Plunge sawing:
CAUTION! RISK OF KICKBACK!
■ Plunge cuts may only be made in soft
materials (wood or similar).
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the sabre saw with the lower edge of the
footplate onto the workpiece. Switch the
appliance on.
2. Tilt the sabre saw forwards and plunge the saw
blade into the workpiece.
3. Position the sabre saw vertically and continue
sawing along the cutting line.
Maintenance and cleaning
WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!
Always switch the appliance off and
remove the battery before carrying
out any work on the appliance.
■ The appliance must always be kept clean, dry
and free from oil or grease.
■ Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the housing.
■ Replace the saw blade as soon as its teeth are
blunt and proper sawing is therefore no longer
possible.
■ Keep the appliance and ventilation slits clean at
all times. If the ventilation slits are blocked, there
is a risk of overheating and/or the appliance
being damaged.
■ Always clean the appliance after completion
of work.
■ Never permit liquids to enter inside the appli-
ance. Use a cloth to clean the housing. Never
use petrol, solvents or cleansers which can
damage plastic.
■ If necessary, clean the saw blade mount with a
brush or compressed air.
■ If a lithium-ion battery is to be stored for an
extended period, the charge level should be
checked regularly. The optimum charge level is
between 50% and 80%. The optimum storage
environment is cool and dry.
