Frequently Asked Questions - STE100+ METABO

How to change the saw blade on the STE100+?
Turn the clamping lever of the quick-clamping system (7) until it stops. Insert the saw blade (10) into the system until it stops, making sure it is properly positioned in the groove of the support roller. Release the clamping lever. Before any intervention, unplug the appliance.
How to adjust the pendulum stroke?
Use the rotary knob (5) to adjust the pendulum stroke to 5 positions: 0 (off) to 5 (maximum). Recommended values can be found on page 2 of the manual for different materials.
How to perform a plunge cut?
Set the rotary knob (5) to position 0. Place the front edge of the base plate (11) on the workpiece, start the appliance and guide it slowly downwards. For thick workpieces, drill a hole beforehand. Hold the saw with both hands.
How to extract dust?
Connect a suitable vacuum cleaner to the extraction hose (12). For optimal extraction, use the dust cap (8). To saw without extraction, remove the cap and fold down the protective bracket (6).
How to saw flush against a wall?
Remove the dust cap (8) and the splinter guard (9). Loosen the screw (15) in the base plate (11), place the base plate in the front slot (16) and retighten the screw.
How to set a bevel cut?
Remove the dust cap, the splinter guard and the extraction hose. Loosen the screw (15) in the base plate, slide the base plate forward, turn it and lock it into the desired stop (15°, 30° or 45°). Retighten the screw.

9 Hints and Tips

Sawing various materials

When sawing metal, first lubricate the saw blade with a Metabo lubricating stick.

When sawing perspex, wet the area of the cut with water.

Saw sheet metal less than 1 mm thick supported on a wooden backing plate.

Penetrating the material surface

When working with thin workpieces (except metal), it is possible to penetrate the workpiece surface with the jig-saw blade without first having to drill a hole. Use both hands to guide the jig saw.

Helico 5 11

Set the adjuster knob (5) to position "0".

Present the jig saw to the workpiece, with the leading edge of the foot-plate (11) resting on the workpiece. Switch the jig saw on and hold it firmly, slowly guiding it downwards.

When the jig saw has cut a free path, the orbital saw blade movement can be switched on.

With thicker workpieces, it is necessary to drill a hole first and then insert the saw blade through it.

10 Maintenance

METABO STE100+ - Maintenance - 1

Be aware of the danger of injury represented by the sharp saw blade. All maintenance operations must be carried out with the saw blade at rest. Switch off the jig saw and disconnect from the mains supply.

Clean the air intake aperture behind the grooved roller supporting the saw blade as required. From time to time lubricate the roller with a drop of oil.

Have the carbon brushes replaced by the manufacturer or in an appropriate specialist workshop only.

11 Accessories

Use original Metabo accessories only.

Your Metabo dealer will supply you with any accessories you may require.

Wear ear protectors!

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.

The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.

An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.

Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

We reserve the right to undertake modifications to reflect technical advances.

Measured values as per EN 60745. During operation, the acoustic level may exceed 85 dB(A).
