RISK OF INJURY!
► Always switch the appliance off and remove
the battery before carrying out any work 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
without pendulum movement (setting "0").
Deactivate pendulum movement when working
on thin workpieces. You can achieve an increas-
ingly fast work rate if the pendulum stroke is
activated (setting "I").
