Inserting/replacing the Saw Blade
Before inserting or replacing the saw blade detach the pruner attachment
from the motor unit to prevent an unintentional start of the tool.
Please note that the saw blade and the blade clamp will become hot during
operation. Wear safety gloves when inserting the saw blade to prevent
burns and cuts.
Do not use saw Blades with a length of over 150 mm.
Use only suitable saw blades and do not use dull, damaged or bent saw
blades.
Keep the blade clamp always clean.
1. Loosen the hex socket screw on the blade clamp and loosen the clamping
piece.
2. Insert a suitable jig saw blade with the cutting side down into the saw blade
clamp. Never insert the saw blade with the cutting side up.
3. Secure the saw blade to the blade clamp with the clamping piece and the
hex socket screw. Make sure the blade clamp is firmly secured!
Suitable saw blades are available from Westfalia.
Operating
The pruner is intended for both-hand operation only. When working, always
hold the pruner as shown in the figure on the right with both hands only.
Never reach your hands over the blade clamp or the protective bracket.
There is risk of injuries!
Switch ON the Motor unit as usual. First, allow the saw blade to run and then
bring the protective bracket into contact with the surface of the workpiece.
Only use low pressure when operating the pruner. Do not start cutting before
the bracket is in contact with the workpiece or the saw blade contacts the
surface of an object. There is danger of serious injury or damages.
