Notes
• If warm, allow the battery to cool be-
fore charging.
• Do not expose the battery to direct sun-
light for long periods and do not place
it on a radiator (max. 50°C).
Charging the battery
1. Remove the battery (29) from the
device.
2. Push the battery (29) into the charging
slot of the battery charger (28).
3. Connect the battery charger (28) to a
power outlet.
4. After charging, disconnect the battery
charger (28) from the mains.
5. Pull the battery (29) out of the battery

Information on sawing
General Information
With this order, you work safely with the
sabre saw and achieve a good result:
1. Clamp the workpiece. Use a clamping
device for small workpieces.
2. Draw a line to specify the direction in
which the saw blade is guided.
3. Hold the device securely by the
handle.
4. Set the mitre angle.
Meaning
• Battery is fully
charged
• stand-by (No
battery inserted)
Battery is charging
Battery is over-
heated
Battery is defective
5. Set the stroke strength.
6. Turn the device on.
7. Wait until the device has reached its
full stroke rate.
8. Place the footplate on the workpiece.
9. Slowly move the device along the
marked line, pressing the footplate
firmly down onto the workpiece.
10. Do not apply too much pressure in the
cutting direction. Let the device do the
work.
11. Before shutting down the device, switch
it off and wait for it to come to a com-
plete standstill.
Selecting the pendulum motion
The larger the pendulum motion, the faster
your progress.
The optimal pendulum motion can be es-
tablished through practice; the following
settings are recommended:
• For thin material, hard material (e.g.
metal) or for cutting curves: Level 0
• Fine and clean cutting edges can be
achieved with little or no pendulum mo-
tion: Level 0 or 1.
• Soft material (wood, plastic, etc.): level
2 or 3
Plunge sawing
Requirements
• Soft materials such as wood, aerated
concrete, plasterboard etc.
• Mitre angle: 0°
• Short saw blade mounted
Procedure (Fig. F)
1. Place the device with the front edge of
the footplate (11) on the workpiece.
The saw blade (16) does not touch the
workpiece.
2. Turn the device on. Wait until the max-
imum stroke rate has been reached.
