VIBRATION INFORMATION Vibration total values (triax vector sum) determined according to EN 60745: Cutting into wood Vibration emission value a hcw = 5.61m/s

= 1.5m/s² Cutting into steel metal Vibration emission value a hcm = 11.40m/s

WARNING: The vibration emission value during actual use of the power tool can differ

from the declared value depending on the ways in which the tool is used dependant on the following examples and other variations on how the tool is used: How the tool is used and the materials being cut or drilled. The tool being in good condition and well maintained. The use the correct accessory for the tool and ensuring it is sharp and in good condition. The tightness of the grip on the handles and if any anti vibration accessories are used. And the tool is being used as intended by its design and these instructions. This tool may cause hand-arm vibration syndrome if its use is not adequately managed.

WARNING: To be accurate, an estimation of exposure level in the actual conditions of use

should also take account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off and when it is running idle but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Helping to minimise your vibration exposure risk. ALWAYS use sharp chisels, drills and blades. Maintain this tool in accordance with these instructions and keep well lubricated (where appropriate). If the tool is to be used regularly then invest in anti vibration accessories. Avoid using tools in temperatures of 10

C or less. Plan your work schedule to spread any high vibration tool use across a number of days. ACCESSORIES Assorted blades (1pc for metal; 1pc for wood; 1pc for aluminium/plastic) 3 Hex key 1 We recommend that you purchase your accessories from the same store that sold you the tool. Use good quality accessories marked with a well-known brand name. Choose the type according to the work you intend to undertake. Refer to the accessory packaging for further details. Store personnel can assist you and offer advice.Reciprocating saw EN

RECIPROCATING SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

Hold reciprocating saw by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock. ADDITIONAL

1. Always wear a dust mask.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS NOTE: Before using the tool, read the instruction book carefully. INTENDED USE: The machine is intended for sawing wood, plastic, metal and building materials while resting firmly on the workpiece. It is suitable for straight and curved cuts.

Depress the button to start and release it to stop your tool.

2. VARIABLE SPEED cONTROL

Your tool is equipped with a variable speed controlled trigger switch. The tool can be turned “ON” or “OFF” by squeezing or releasing the trigger. The blade plunger stroke rate can be adjusted from the minimum to maximum by the pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure to increase the speed and release pressure to decrease speed (See Fig. A)

Always hold your saw firmly with both hands when operating (See Fig. A).

4. TOOL-LESS BLADE FITTING

To install the blade (See Fig. B and Fig. C), disconnect the saw from power supply. If necessary, extend the pivoting blade foot away from the blade clamp for easier access. Pull the tool-less blade clamp lever (3) up with your thumb, as shown. Insert the blade into the saw’s blade clamp and make sure that the blade attaches to the blade pin inside the clamp. Push down blade clamp lever (3) ensure the blade is locked securely in place. To remove Blade (See Fig. B and Fig. C) Disconnect saw from power supply. If necessary, extend the pivoting blade foot away from the blade clamp for easier access. First, pull the blade clamp lever (3) up with your thumb, and then pull the blade out of the blade clamp.

5. PIVOTING BLADE FOOT

ADJUSTmENT If you need to reduce the cutting capacity of your tool the pivoting blade foot (4) may be adjusted as follows: Using the hex key provided, loosen the two screws on the underside of the front housing (See Fig. D). Slide the pivoting blade foot to give the required distance from the end of the blade (See Fig. D) to the pivoting blade foot (This distance equals new cutting capacity). Then securely tighten both screws. The pivoting blade foot slide is now locked but the pivoting blade foot will continue to pivot, as it must follow your work surface.

6. PIVOTING BLADE FOOT

The pivoting blade foot must be held firmly against the material being cut to reduce saw vibration, blade jumping and blade breakage.

It is possible to make cuts extremely close to floors, walls and other difficult areas. Insert the blade shank into the blade clamp with the blade teeth facing up (opposite to normal working position). This will make cuts closer to the work surface (See Fig. E). Using special flexible blades insert the blade into the blade clamp with the blade teeth facing down (normal working position). It will allow flush pipe cutting (See Fig. F).

Always ensure the work-piece is firmly clamped to prevent movement. For easier control use low speed to start cutting, then increase to the correct speed (See Fig. G).

This saw has different metal cutting capacities depending upon the type of blade being used and metal being cut. ALWAyS clamp the work down to prevent it from slipping. Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a coarse blade for non-ferrous metals. When cutting thin gauge sheet metals, ALWAyS clamp wood on both sides of the sheet. This will give you a clean cut withoutReciprocating saw EN

excess vibration or tearing of the metal. DO NOT force the cutting blade. Forcing the blade will reduce blade life and cause the blade to break. NOTE: We recommend that you spread a thin film of oil or other coolant along the line of cut ahead of the saw. This will allow easier operation and help extend blade life. When cutting aluminum, use kerosene.

10. POCKET CUTTING (Soft materials

only) Mark the pocket or internal hole to be cut out. Insert the special cutting blade with blade teeth facing down and clamp securely. Angle the saw so that the back edge of the blade guard is resting on the work surface (See Fig. H.1 and Fig. H.2). Use a slow speed to start the cut to avoid breaking the blade but increase to correct speed once the cut has started. With the blade guard held firmly against the work surface, start a slow but controlled upward swing of the saw. The blade will cut into and through the material. Always ensure the blade is completely through the material before cutting the remainder of the pocket. WORk HINTS FOR YOUR RECIPROCATING SAW If your power tool becomes too hot, set the speed to maximum and run a no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped to prevent movement. The blade guard must be held firmly against the material being cut to reduce saw vibration, blade jumping and blade breakage. MAINTENANCE Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any adjustment, servicing or maintenance. Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls free of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is normal. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard. ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION Waste electrical products should not be disposed of with household waste. Please recycle where facilities exist. Check with your local authorities or retailer for recycling advice.Reciprocating saw EN
