Attaching the Saw Blades
The single variable-speed trigger allows control of the oscil-
lating frequency from 0 to 14 000 oscillations per minute.
When the trigger is released, the power tool stops immedi-
ately. Ensure the drive unit is running prior to contacting the
bone. Optimal sawing performance is achieved by gently
moving back and forth in the plane of the saw blade, allow-
ing the blade to oscillate freely slightly beyond the bone.
Mounting the saw blades
Open the quick coupling for saw blades by turning the lock-
ing knob
1
(Fig. page 18) counter clockwise. Use a slight
amount of pressure to slide the saw blade against the screw
head and turn it to the desired position. Lock the saw blade
coupling by tightening the locking knob clockwise.
Removing the saw blade
Open the quick coupling for saw blades by turning the
locking knob
1
(Fig. page 18) counter clockwise, and
remove the saw blade.
Precautions:
Make sure that the locking knob for the saw
blade quick coupling is firmly tightened. Otherwise the screw
can loosen during use causing the saw blade to vibrate.
To prevent injuries, the trigger should always be in the lock
position when inserting or removing saw blades, or adjusting
the sawing plane.
