Assembly

INSERTING AND CHANGING THE BLADE The machine is equipped with a Bosch "Clic" blade-clamping device. This feature makes changing blades simple and fast without additional tools.

FLUSH-CUT SAW BLADE

This blade’s teeth are offset from the blade guide, which facilitates flush cutting. The flush-cut saw blade can be attached to the tool depending on desired sawing direction, or personal preference (Fig. 3).

If necessary, wipe the blade clean. Only then should the saw teeth protector be removed.

Insert plug into power source and turn tool on briefly (See Operating Instructions for Saw Section). This will allow the saw blade pin to engage into the blade to drive the blade back and forth. Turn tool off.

To change the blade, place the saw teeth protector onto the blade and press the “Clic” button. This causes the tab to spring out of the locking spring, then remove the blade.

GENERAL PURPOSE SAW BLADE

The general purpose saw blade can also be attached depending on desired sawing direction or personal preference (Fig. 6).
