Tips and notes on handling the sabre saw
General information:
•
Keep the venting slots clear to prevent the motor from
overheating.
•
Check the tool in the tool holder for proper fit before every
application. The tool must be firmly locked in place in the
designated holding fixtures in the tool holder.
•
Before every application, make sure that you have selected
the correct tool for the intended use.
Sawing:
•
Before sawing wood, chipboards, building materials etc.,
check the above for foreign objects, e.g. nails, screws or
similar. If required, remove the foreign objects or use a
suitable saw blade.
•
Only use intact, flawless saw blades. Bent, blunt or
otherwise damaged saw blades could break.
•
When sawing lightweight construction materials, make
sure to observe the legal regulations and
recommendations of the material manufacturers.
•
Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.
•
If the saw blade gets jammed in the workpiece, switch off
the power tool immediately. The sawing gap should be
slightly widened with a suitable tool so that you can pull
out the power tool.
•
Switch on the power tool and guide it towards the
workpiece to be processed. Place the guide shoe on the
surface of the workpiece. Process the workpiece with an
even forward motion and contact pressure. After
completing the sawing operation, switch off the power
tool.
•
The saw blade should not be longer than required for the
intended cut.
