Guiding the sabre blade safely

To adapt to the workpiece and for safe placement,
the footplate can be swivelled . It must always
be in contact with the workpiece when the appli-
ance is running .

Practical advice on sawing

♦ Check the material to be worked to make sure
that all foreign objects have been removed,
e .g . nails, screws, etc . .
♦ Ensure that the ventilation slits are not covered .
♦ Switch the appliance on before moving it
towards the material to be worked .
♦ Switch the appliance off immediately if the saw
blade jams .
Open up the sawn gap using a suitable tool
and pull out the sabre saw .
■ Use the appropriate saw blade and stroke rate
for the material to be worked .
■ Saw blades optimised for your sabre saw are
available from retail stores in different lengths
for various purposes .
■ Saw the material at a constant speed .
Sawing flush to edges
Using flexible saw blades with a suitable corre-
sponding length, you can saw off protruding work-
pieces such as pipes flush to the wall .
Proceed as follows:
1 . Place the saw blade directly against the wall .
2 . Bend it by applying lateral pressure to the sabre
saw so that the footplate
the wall .
3 . Switch the appliance on as described and saw
off the work piece by applying constant pres-

materials (wood or similar) .
Proceed as follows:
1 . Place the sabre saw with the lower edge of the
footplate onto the workpiece . Switch the
appliance on .
2 . Tilt the sabre saw forwards and plunge the saw
blade into the workpiece .
3 . Position the sabre saw vertically and continue
sawing along the cutting line .

Maintenance and cleaning

WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!
Always switch the appliance off
before carrying out any work on it.
■ Always remove the power plug from the power
socket before cleaning the appliance .
■ Replace the saw blade as soon as its teeth are
blunt and proper sawing is therefore no longer
possible .
■ Keep the appliance and ventilation slits clean at
all times . If the ventilation slits are blocked, there
is a risk of overheating and/or the appliance
being damaged .
■ Always clean the appliance after completion of
work .
■ Never permit liquids to enter inside the appli-
ance . Use a cloth to clean the housing . Never
use petrol, solvents or cleansers which can
damage plastic .
■ If necessary, clean the saw blade mount with a
brush or compressed air .
