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
Insert the saw blade into the guide slot of the saw blade
coupling until the lock knob springs back into locked posi-
tion with a click. Check the correct seating of the saw blade
by pulling it slightly forward in an axial direction.
Removing the saw blade
Turn the lock knob in the direction of the arrow until the
saw blade jumps forward approx. 1 mm. Remove the saw
blade from the holder.
Precautions:
– Ensure that the saw blade is correctly clicked-in to the
saw blade coupling. Otherwise the saw blade could come
loose and begin 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.
