• By moving the thumbwheel for stroke rate
selection 1, select the needed number of stroke of the
saw blade 16�
[STS07-120 TV]
• Press the back part of on / off switch 9 and while
holding it in this position, move on / off switch 9
forward� Press the front part of on / off switch 9 to fix it
in pressed position�
• By moving the thumbwheel for stroke rate
selection 1, select the needed number of stroke of the
saw blade 16�
• 1-2 (low stroke rate) - use when sawing hard and
solid materials (alloy-free steel, non-ferrous metals
and their alloys, etc�);
• 3 (medium stroke rate) - use for sawing less
hard materials (plastic, plywood, particleboards,
hard wood, etc�);
• 4-5 (high stroke rate) - use for sawing soft mate-
rials (soft wood, insulating materials, etc�)�
Following setting up the number of
stroke rate of the saw blade 18 it is
recommended to make a test saw cut
using a spare piece of the blank part
(made of the same material as the part to be
processed).
When operating your power tool at a low speed for a
long time, it has to be cooled down for 3 minutes� To
do it, set a maximum stroke rate and leave your power
tool to run idle�
Pendulum rate selection
Pendulum rate facilitates selecting the optimal sawing
regime (feed velocity, the appearance of the saw cut,
etc�) for the processed material�
With each downward move the saw blade 16 is driven
back from the blank part which improves the release of
the sawdust, reduces the heating up and increases the
operating life of the saw blade 16� Moreover the reduc-
tion of the feed force allows the worker to operate the
instrument without getting tired�
The degree of the pendulum strike may be changed
when operating the power tool� The lever for pendulum
stroke adjustment 13 allows setting four steps of the
pendulum stroke:
Step 0:
No pendulum action;
Step I:
Small pendulum action;
Step II:
Medium pendulum action;
Step III:
Large pendulum action�
It is recommended to consider the following rec-
ommendations when selecting the degree of the
pendulum rate:
• when the edge of the saw cut must be exact and
clean, select small pendulum rate or switch the pen-
dulum rate off;
• switch the pendulum rate off when processing thin
(sheet metal, sheet plastic, etc�) or hard materials
(alloy-free steel, non-ferrous metals, etc�);
• when sawing soft materials (soft wood, etc�) se-
lect large pendulum rate; it will increase the speed
of the operation, however the quality of the saw cut
may be reduced�
It is recommended to make a test saw
cut using a spare piece of the blank part
(made of the same material as the blank
part to be processed) after the pendulum
rate is selected.
Protection against contact with saw blade
[STS07-100 DV, STS07-120 TV]
Contact protector 4 prevents accidental contact with
saw blade 16 and improves safety of work performance�
Kerf laser indicator (see fig. 8)
[STS04-65 DV]
The kerf laser indicator 21 projects a bright red line,
indicating the location of the future cut�
• To switch on the kerf laser indicator 21, press
button 20 (see fig. 8)� The power tool must be
connected to the mains�
• To switch off the kerf laser indicator 21, press the
button 20 again�
Dust blowing system (see fig. 9)
[STS07-100 DV, STS07-120 TV]
Dust blowing system enables a clear view of cutting
line, and can be turned off when the power tool is
connected to the vacuum cleaner�
• To switch on the dust blowing system, set switch 12
to the position shown onto fig. 9.1.
• To switch off the dust blowing system, set switch 12
to the position shown onto fig. 9.2.
Plastic overlay
[STS07-100 DV, STS07-120 TV]
Plastic overlay 7 of the base plate 14 prevents damage
the surface of treated workpiece�
on the power tool operation
Selecting the saw blade
Saw blades 16 of T-type may be used
with all of the jigsaw models.
Before starting the operation, please select the appro-
priate type of the saw blade 16 which should corre-
