Temperature Control/Overload
Protection Indicator
The red LED indicator 9 will help you in protecting the battery
against overheating and the motor against overloading.
When the LED indicator 9 continuously lights up red,
the temperature of the battery is too high and the machine
switches off automatically.
• Switch the power tool off.
• Allow the battery to cool down before continuing to work.
9 flashes red, the power tool is blocked and switches off
automatically.
• Remove the power tool from the workpiece.
As soon as the blockage is corrected, the power tool will
continue to work at the set stroke rate.
Protection Against Deep Discharging
The lithium ion battery is protected against deep discharging
by the "Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)". When the battery is
empty, the machine is switched off by means of a protective
circuit: The inserted tool no longer rotates.

Working Advice

Tips
 When sawing light building materials, observe
the statutory provisions and the recommenda-
tions of the material suppliers.
Check wood, press boards, building materials, etc. for foreign
objects such as nails, screws or similar, and remove them, if
required.
• Switch the machine on and guide it toward the workpiece.
Position the base plate 2 onto the surface of the work and
saw through the material applying uniform contact pres-
sure and feed. After completing the working procedure,
switch the machine off.
If the saw blade should jam, switch the machine off immedi-
ately. Widen the gap somewhat with a suitable tool and pull
out the machine.
Plunge Cutting (see figure E)
 The plunge cutting procedure is only suitable
for treating soft materials such as wood, plas-
ter board or similar! Do not work metal mate-
rials with the plunge cutting procedure!
Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting.
• Place the machine with the edge of the footplate 2 onto
the workpiece and switch on. For power tools with
stroke speed control, set the maximum stroke speed.
Press the power tool firmly against the workpiece and
allow the saw blade to slowly plunge into the work-
piece.
• As soon as the footplate 2 fully lays on the surface of the
workpiece, continue sawing alongside the desired cutting
line.
For certain work, the saw blade 1 can also be inserted turned
through by 180° and the sabre saw can be guided accord-
ingly in a reversed manner.
Coolant/Lubricant
When sawing metal, coolant/lubricant should be applied
alongside cutting line because of the material heating up.
Recommendations for Optimal
Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Store the battery only within a temperature range between
0 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery
in the car in summer.
Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a
soft, clean and dry brush.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.
Maintenance and Cleaning
 Warning! Prior to any maintenance and clean-
ing, switch the machine off and secure the lock-
off button 6.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the
machine and ventilation slots clean.
Clean the saw blade holder preferably with compressed air
or a soft brush. Remove the saw blade from the power tool for
this. Ensure proper operation of the saw blade holder by
applying a suitable lubricant.
Heavy contamination of the machine can lead to malfunc-
tions. Therefore, do not saw materials that produce a lot of
dust from below or overhead.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufac-
turing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by
a Würth master-Service.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders, please always
