Preparing the saw for use / Cleaning / Disposal / Information

jThe footplate g must always be set against the workpiece surface.

jSaw through the workpiece using even pressure and speed of progress.

Flush sawing:

With so-called elastic bi-metallic saw blades, pre- supposing the appropriate length, projecting work- pieces such as pipework protruding from the wall can be sawn off adjacent to the wall (see also Fig. D).

Follow these steps:

1.Place the saw blade directly on the wall surface.

2.Bend the blade by sideways pressure so that the footplate g comes up against the wall.

3.Switch on the tool as described above and trim the workpiece using constant sideways pressure.

Plunge sawing:

jNever permit fluids to permeate inside the ap- pliance. Use a soft cloth to clean the appliance housing. Never use fuel, solvents or cleansers which attack plastic.

jClean out the saw blade mounting recess by tapping the tool lightly (without an inserted saw blade) by the footplate g on a level surface. Clean any remaining dirt from the saw blade mounting recess using a thin paintbrush or compressed air.

LDisposal

The packaging is made entirely of recyclable materials, which you may dispose of at local recycling facilities.

Do not dispose of electrical appliances in household waste!

Plunge sawing can be used only in soft materials (such as wood etc.).

Follow these steps:

1.Place the sabre saw onto the workpiece. Ensure that the lower edge of the footplate g is resting on the upper surface of the workpiece. Switch the appliance on.

2.Slowly cut into the workpiece with the saw blade.

3.Place the sabre saw upright and saw further along the cutting line as soon as you have reached the required depth.

4.At the end, switch the sabre saw off and remove it from the workpiece.

LCleaning

Always remove the plug from the power socket before cleaning the appliance.

jAlways keep the tool and the ventilation slots clean.

This will maximise the service life of the tool and ensure your safety.

jClean the saw frequently. For best results, do this immediately after you have finished using it.

In accordance with European Directive 2002 / 96 / EC on used electrical and electronic appliances and its implementation in national law, used power tools must be collected separately and recycled in an ecologically compatible manner.

Information on options for disposing of electrical appliances after their useful life can be obtained from your local or city council.
