Q
Advice about ways of
working when sawing
Before sawing, check the workpiece for foreign
bodies such as nails, screws etc. and remove them.
Do not allow the ventilation slots to become
covered.
Switch the device on first and only then bring it
into contact with the workpiece.
If the saw blade jams, switch off the device im-
mediately.
Open the sawn gap in the workpiece slightly
using a suitable tool and extract the saw blade.
Always make sure the saw blade type and the
blade oscillation speed are suitable for the
workpiece material.
There are different saw blades available in var-
ious lengths designed to ensure optimum perfor-
mance of every sawing task with your sabre saw.
Saw the material using a steady forward rate
of progress.
Flush sawing:
Using flexible saw blades of adequate length you
can trim off projecting workpieces, such as pipes,
directly at the face of a wall.
