6.2 Locking button (Fig. 9/Item 2)
You can lock the ON/OFF switch (3) using the lo-
cking button (2) when the equipment is in operati-
on. To switch off the equipment briefl y hold down
the ON/OFF switch (3).
6.3 Electric speed selector (Fig. 10/Item 1)
You can pre-select the required speed with the
speed selector. Turn the speed selector in PLUS
director to increase the speed and turn the speed
selector in MINUS direction to reduce the speed.
The suitable stroke speed is dependent on the
relevant material and working conditions.
General rules for cutting speeds for metal cutting
work must be complied with here as well.
You can generally use a higher speed with fi ne
saw blades whilst coarser saw blades require
lower speeds.
Position 1-2 = low stroke speed (for steel)
Position 3-4 = medium stroke speed (for steel,
soft metal, plastic)
Position 5-6 = high stroke speed (for softwood,
hardwood, soft metal, plastic)
6.4 Setting the pendulum action (Fig. 11/ Item
8)
•
The strength of the pendulum action of the
saw blade (12) can be adjusted using the se-
lector switch for pendulum action (8).
•
You can adjust the cutting speed, the cutting
performance and the finish to the workpiece
you wish to saw.
Set the selector switch for pendulum action (8) to
one of the following positions:
Position 0: No pendulum action
Material: Rubber, ceramic, aluminium, steel
Please note: For fi ne and clean cuts, thin materi-
als (e.g. sheet steel) and hard materials.
Position 1: Small pendulum action
Material: Plastic, wood, aluminium
Please note: For hard materials
Position 2: Medium pendulum action
Material: Wood
Position 3: Large pendulum action
Material: Wood
Please note: For soft materials and sawing along
the grain

The best combination of speed and pendulum
action depends on the material you wish to saw.
We recommend you to make a trial cut on a waste
piece in order to check the ideal settings.
6.5 Making cuts
•
Ensure that the ON/OFF switch (3) is not
depressed. Only then should you connect the
mains plug to a suitable socket.
•
Do not switch on the jigsaw until you have
fitted a saw blade.
•
Use only saw blades that are in perfect con-
dition. Replace blunt, bent or cracked saw
blades immediately.
•
Place the saw foot flat on the workpiece you
wish to saw. Switch on the jigsaw.
•
Allow the saw blade to accelerate until it
reaches full speed. Then slowly move the saw
blade along the cutting line. Only exert gentle
pressure on the saw blade as you do so.
•
When cutting metal, apply a suitable coolant
along the line you wish to cut.
6.6 Sawing out sections (Fig. 13)
Drill a 10 mm hole in the section you wish to saw
out. Insert the saw blade into this hole and start to
saw out the required section.
6.7 Making parallel cuts
•
Mount the parallel stop and adjust as required
(see section 5.3).
•
Observe the instructions in section 6.5.
•
Cut as shown in Figure 14.
6.8 Making miter cuts
•
Set the angle on the soleplate (see section
5.4).
•
Observe the instructions in section 6.5.
•
Cut as shown in Figure 15.
6.9 Using the laser (Fig. 12)
•
The laser (17) enables you to make precision
cuts with your circular saw.
•
The laser light is generated by a laser diode.
The laser light is enlarged to form a line and is
emitted through the laser emission aperture.
You can then use the line as an optical marker
for the sawing line for precision cuts. Follow
the laser safety instructions.
•
You can switch the laser ON and OFF with
the ON/OFFswitch (18).
•
The laser beam may be affected by deposits
of dust and chips. The emission aperture of
the laser beam must therefore be cleaned
after each use.
