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:

footplate onto the workpiece . Switch the
appliance on .
2 . Tilt the sabre saw forwards and plunge the saw
blade into the workpiece .

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

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 .
