If you wish to work with the protective plate
attached (see chapter Accessories 10), fit the
anti-splintering footplate insert in the protective
plate.
6.2 Sawing with a guiding device for
straight cuts (SCS)
The metal guide (5) of the guide element (6) dips
into the kerf and stabilises the machine to ensure
even straighter cuts.
Removing the guide element:
- Hold the machine with the footplate down.
- Press the unlocking key. The guide element thus
falls out of its retainer in the footplate.
(Should the guide element not fall out by itself,
you can insert the hexagon spanner (16) into the
guide element hole and remove it in this way).
Inserting the guide element:
For straight cuts, insert the guide element
so that the metal guide (5) protrudes under
the footplate.
For diagonal and curved cuts, insert the
guide element so that the metal guide (5) fits
into the footplate and is not visible.
- With the unlocking key pressed, insert the guide
element into the footplate.
Note: It can only be inserted if the hole in the
guide element is facing backwards (towards the
mains cable).
6.3 Inserting the saw blade
Danger of injury due to the sharp jigsaw
blade. After stopping work, the jigsaw blade
may still be hot. Wear protective gloves.
Use a saw blade that is suitable for the material
being sawn.
- Turn the clamping lever (1) forwards to the stop
and hold in place.
- Insert the saw blade (4) up to the stop. Ensure
that the saw teeth are facing forwards and the
blade is seated correctly in the groove on the
saw blade support roller (3).
- Release the clamping lever (1). (It returns to its
initial position by itself. The saw blade is now
securely tightened).
6.4 Attaching / Removing the protective
cap
Attachment: Push on the protective cap (11) from
the front until it engages
Removal: Grip both sides of the protective cap
(11), lift slightly, then pull forwards and remove.

6.5 Sawing with dust extraction
- Connect a suitable extraction device to the
extractor connection piece (18). Use a suction
hose with a 30 mm connector diameter.
- Attach the protective cap (11) for maximum
extraction efficiency.
- Switch off the chip blower (see chapter 7.1).
6.6 Sawing without dust extraction
- Work with the protective cap (11) removed
(see Removal chapter 6.4).
6.7 Diagonal cuts
Remove the protective cap (11), anti-splintering
footplate insert (8) and extraction hose. These
parts cannot be used for diagonal cuts.
- Remove the guide element (6) (see section 6.2).
- Slacken the screw (19).
- Slid the footplate (9) forwards slightly and turn.
- Then slide the footplate (9) forwards or back-
wards and engage in one of the detents (the
detents can be viewed through the semicircular
opening at the rear of the footplate (9).) The
preset angle is indicated on the curved support
plate (20) on the footplate. Adjust to different
angles using an angle gage.
- Tighten the screw (19) again.
- Insert the guide element (6) once more
(see section 6.2).
6.8 Sawing close to the wall

footplate insert (8), circular-cutting and parallel
guide. These parts cannot be used when sawing
close to the wall.

be raised slightly.
- Raise the footplate (9) slightly and slide
backwards up to the stop.
