REPLACING / INSERTING THE SAW

BLADE Before any work on the machine itself, remove the battery. The blade (15) should extend past the foot plate and the thickness of the workpiece during the cut. Select the blade best suitable for the material to be cut and use the shortest blade suited for the thickness of the material. WARNING! Cut hazard. Blade breakage may occur if the blade does not extend past the foot plate and the workpiece during the cut. Increased risk of personal injury, as well as damage to the foot plate and workpiece may result. CAUTION: Keep your hands away from the lock-off button to prevent switch actuation before making any adjustments or removing or installing attachments or accessories.

— INSERTING THE SAW BLADE

(See Fig. F-H) Wear protective gloves when assembling the saw blade. Contact with the saw blade can lead to injuries. You can only use the blade type shown in Fig F. The machine is equipped with a tool-free blade holder (7). This makes possible easy and quick changing of the saw blade without any additional tools. Rotate the ring counterclockwise and hold in position. Fully insert the blade into the blade holder slot with blade teeth facing forward then release the ring, which will self-rotate and clamp over the top of the blade. (See Fig. G1&G2)

— REMOVING THE SAW BLADE

To remove a blade, hold the blade and rotate the blade holder ring counterclockwise to release the blade.

WARNING: The blade may be spring

ejected so protect your eyes. NOTE: When using JIGSAW MODE (90 deg) , the blade teeth face forward as shown in Fig. H. OPERATION

WARNING: Always wear eye protection

while operating this or any other power tool.

WARNING: Burn hazard. Do not touch

the blade immediately after use. Contact12V Li-Ion multi-purposed saw EN

with the blade may result in personal injury. Before you begin work, ensure the material to be cut is rigid. Small workpieces should be securely clamped to a work table.

1. SWITCHING ON AND OFF (See Fig. I)

For starting operation of the machine, press the lock-off button (2) first, then press and hold the On/Off switch (1) afterwards. To switch off the machine, release the On/Off switch (1).

3. PROTECTION FINGER

The finger is located in front of the blade holder. While working, it will help prevent accidental contact with the moving blade.

A light (8) is built-in near the end of the protection finger. The light will automatically come on each time the on/off switch is depressed.

WARNING: Always wear eye protection

while operating this power tool.

• Never hold the pivot head when operating the tool.

• Never hold the motor cover when operating the tool. Before cutting any type of material, be sure it is firmly anchored or clamped to prevent slipping. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

• Place blade lightly against work to be cut, depress the trigger switch and allow it to obtain maximum speed before applying pressure.

• Whenever possible, the saw foot plate must be held firmly against the material being cut. This will prevent the saw from jumping or vibrating and minimize blade breakage.

• Any cut which puts pressure on the blade, such as angle or scroll cuts, increases potential for vibration, kickback and blade breakage.

WARNING: Shock hazard. Use extra

caution when cutting overhead and pay particular attention to overhead wires which may be hidden from view.

WARNING: Use extra caution when

cutting overhead and anticipate the path of falling branches and debris ahead of time.

WARNING: Inspect work site for hidden

gas pipes, water pipes, or electrical wires before making blind or plunge cuts. Failure to do so may result in explosion, property damage, electric shock, and/or serious personal injury.

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR

MULTI-PURPOSED SAW If your power tool becomes too hot, run no- load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor. Avoid prolonged usage at very low speeds. GENERAL Always use a blade suited to the material and material thickness to be cut. Always ensure the work–piece is firmly held or clamped to prevent movement. Any movement of the material may affect the quality of the cut. The blade cuts on the upward stroke and may chip the uppermost surface. Ensure your uppermost surface is a non- visible surface when your work is finished. 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.12V Li-Ion multi-purposed saw EN

Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation slots. This is normal and will not damage your power tool.
