When changing the saw blade, take care that the
saw blade holder is free of material residue, e.g.
wood or metal shavings.
Selecting a Saw Blade
Use only saw blades with ½" universal shank. The saw blade
should not be longer than required for the intended cut. Use a
thin saw blade for narrow curve cuts.
Inserting the Saw Blade (see figure A)
- Press the unlock button on the base plate 6.
Turn in the direction of clockwise the knurled housing saw blade
3 and insert the saw blade 1 in the front, in the housing of the
saw blade 3. Affirm the housing 3 this when the blade.
Check the tight seating by pulling on the saw blade.
A loose saw blade can fall out and cause injury.
For certain work, the saw blade 1 can also be turned through
180° (with the teeth pointed upwards) and re-inserted again.
Removing the Saw Blade
Before removing, allow the saw blade to cool down.
Danger of injury when touching the hot saw blade.
Put forward the housing of the saw blade 3 and remove the saw
blade 1. Release the lever 5.

Operating instructions
IF THE MACHINE IS POORLY CONDITIONED OR
MISSING OR HAS ANY PART, DO NOT CONNECT,
NEITHER USE THE MACHINE: TAKE IT TO THE TE-
CHNICAL SERVICE.
IF YOU HAVE NOT LED, UNDERSTOOD AND APPLIED
THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL DO NOT USE THE MA-
CHINE.
Placement and Testing
Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the
power source must agree with the voltage specified
on the nameplate of the machine.
Switching On and Off
To start the machine, first push the lock-off button for the On/Off
switch 7 and then press the On/Off switch 8 and keep it pressed.
To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch 8.

Note: For safety reasons, the On/Off switch 8 cannot be locked;
it must remain pressed during the entire operation.
When not using the power tool, switch it off in order to save energy.
Controlling the Stroke Rate
Increasing or reducing the pressure on the On/Off switch 8 ena-
bles stepless stroke-rate control of the switched-on machine.
Light pressure on the On/Off switch 8 results in a low stroke rate.
Increasing the pressure also increases the stroke rate.
The required stroke rate is dependent on the material and the
working conditions and can be determined by a practical trial.
Reducing the stroke rate is recommended when the saw blade
engages in the material as well as when sawing plastic and alu-
minium.
After longer periods of work at low stroke rate, the machine can
heat up considerably. Allow the machine to cool down by running
it for approx. 3 minutes at maximum stroke rate.
For greater control make a mark with the cutting line on the wor-
kpiece.Do not make plunge cuts in metallic materials! When cu-
tting metals, lubricate the blade with oil regularly.
To adjust the pendular advance of the saw movement with the
knob 10 adjust the speed to improve the finish.
General instructions for use
Before any work on the machine itself, pull the
mains plug.
When sawing light building materials, observe the
statutory provisions and the recommendations of
the material suppliers.
Check wood, press boards, building materials, etc. for foreign
objects such as nails, screws or similar, and always use the co-
rrect sawblade.
Connect the power tool and bring it to the workpiece. Seat the
base plate 2 against the work piece acting on the lock 6 and
squeeze the material by applying a uniform application or advan-
ce pressure. When the work is finished, disconnect the power tool.
If the saw blade 1 should jam, switch the machine off immedia-
tely. Widen the gap somewhat with a suitable tool and pull out
the machine.
Pivoting and Retractable Footplate (see figure B)
Due to its movability, the adjustable footplate 2 adapts to the
required angular position of the surface.
Depending on the application and the saw blade being used, the
footplate 2 can be moved variably in length direction.
Plunge Cutting (see figures B)
The plunge cutting procedure is only suitable for
treating soft materials such as wood, plaster board
or similar! Do not work metal materials with the
plunge cutting procedure!
Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting.
