Adjusting the limit stop
Adjust the limit stop, to limit the cutting length and
use the entire length of the saw blade economi-
cally.
To adjust the limit stop, hold the reciprocating saw
and position the limit stop in the required position.
Always keep the limit stop pushed against the work
piece.
Sawing wood (Fig. H)
The workpiece needs to be secured or clamped
down when working on it, so that it cannot slide
away. Start with a low speed and increase it to the
final speed; this allows a better control over the
tool.
Cutting metals (Fig. I)
Dependent on the used saw blade as well as the
material needing to be cut, the saw can also cut
various metals.
The tool needs to be clamped
for all work
carried
out, so that it cannot slide. Use a blade with fine
teeth for iron metals and a coarse toothed blade
for non-iron metals.
Always
clamp thin metal sheets between two
pieces of wood. This allows for straight cuts to be
made and avoids strong vibration or the material
from warping.
Never
use force when sawing thin metal sheets.
Too much force shortens the service life of the saw
blade and can make the saw blade break.
Note:
It is recommended to use some oil or other
coolants on the cutting line with the saw blade.
This will make the cutting easier and protects the
saw blade. When cutting aluminium, use some
kerosene.
Plunge cuts (only for soft materials, not metals!) (Fig. J and K)
Mark the section. Place the special blade into the intake, with the teeth pointing downward and secure
it. Place the saw blade with its back on the surface needing to be cut. Start with a lower stroke speed
and then increase the speed, as soon as the saw engages. Push the saw blade guard firmly against
the surface and turn the saw blade upward carefully. The saw blade will work through the material.
Ensure, that the material is properly separated, before sawing the remaining pocket.
