Adjusting the shoe
When the recipro saw blade loses its cutting efficiency in one place along its cutting edge, reposition
the shoe to utilize a sharp, unused portion of its cutting edge. This will help to lengthen the life of the
recipro saw blade.
The position of the shoe can be adjusted in five levels. To reposition the shoe, open the shoe adjusting
lever and select the suitable position, then close the shoe adjusting lever.

Selecting the cutting action
The tool can be operated with an orbital or a straight line (up and down) cutting action. The orbital
cutting action thrusts the blade forward on the cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed.
To change to the orbital cutting action, just rotate the cutting action changing lever to the “On”
position. To change to the normal straight line (up and down) cutting action, just rotate the cutting
action changing lever to the “Off” position.

ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before
carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing the reciprocating saw blade
CAUTION: Always clean out all chips or for- eign matter adhering to the blade and around the blade
clamp. Failure to do so may cause insufficient tightening of the blade, resulting in a serious injury.
To insert the Sabre saw blade, rotate the blade clamp sleeve in the direction of the arrow
(anticlockwise) fully, then insert the Sabre saw blade into the blade clamp sleeve as far as it will go,
release the blade clamp sleeve,the blade clamp sleeve rotates and automatically fixes the Sabre saw
blade. Make sure that the Sabre saw blade cannot be extracted even though you try to pull It out.
CAUTION: If you do not insert the Sabre saw blade deep enough, the Sabre saw blade may be
ejected unexpectedly during operation. This can be extremely dangerous.
To remove the Sabre saw blade, rotate the blade clamp sleeve in the same direction of the arrow
(anticlockwise) fully. The sabre saw blade could be removed and the blade clamp sleeve
automatically fixed at the released position.
