Frequently Asked Questions - STE 350 EINHELL

How do I change the blade on the Einhell STE 350 jigsaw?

Unplug the tool. Loosen the two sliding block screws using the supplied hex key. Slide the blade into the guide groove until it stops. Ensure the teeth are facing the cutting direction. Tighten the screws. Check that the blade is securely held in the guide roller groove.

What is the maximum cutting depth in wood?

The maximum cutting depth in wood is 55 mm. For plastic it is 10 mm and for metal 6 mm.

How do I adjust the speed of the saw?

The speed can be adjusted in two ways: by the trigger (variable pressure) or by the thumb wheel on the switch (electronic presetting). Turn the wheel in the '+' direction to increase cycles per minute, in the '-' direction to decrease.

Can I make bevel cuts with this saw?

Yes, the saw base plate can be tilted up to 45° left or right. Loosen the two screws under the base plate, set the desired angle (markings at 15°, 30° and 45° are indicated) and retighten the screws.

How do I use the dust extraction feature?

The saw is equipped with a vacuum cleaner connection at the rear. Connect a suitable vacuum cleaner (possibly via a specific adapter) to extract chips during sawing.

What are the essential safety instructions?

Always wear safety goggles, ear protection and a dust mask. Unplug the tool before any adjustment or blade change. Do not work with a damaged blade. Use dust extraction for dusty materials. Hold the saw firmly and maintain a stable position.

How do I make a plunge cut (pocket cut)?

For a pocket cut in wood or chipboard without drilling a pilot hole, tilt the saw forward, place the base plate on the workpiece, then lower the blade gradually while exerting firm pressure against the workpiece. Move the saw slowly in the cutting direction.

What is the warranty period?

The warranty is 6 months from the date of purchase. It covers material, operational and manufacturing defects. Replacement parts and labor are included. Consequential damages are not covered.

How do I clean and maintain the saw?

Unplug the tool. Clean the ventilation slots and housing with a dry cloth. Remove chips from the blade holder and roller. Do not use solvents. Regularly check the condition of the cable and blade.

What should I do if the saw does not start?

Check that the plug is properly inserted and the socket works. Ensure the ON/OFF switch is not blocked. If the problem persists, have the tool repaired by a qualified electrician. Only use original spare parts.

General safety and accident prevention regulations

To work safely with this machine and to prevent accidents it is imperative to read the following safety regulations and operating instructions in full and to put all the information into practice.

●Always check the machine, the power cable and the plug before use. Only ever use the machine if it is in perfect, undamaged condition. Damaged parts are to be repaired or replaced immediately by a qualified electrician.
●Always pull the plug out of the power socket before carrying out any work on the machine, before changing the tool and in periods of non-use.
●Always run the power cable away from the back of the machine to guard it from damage.
- For outdoors work use only suitably approved extension cables with a minimum conductor cross section of 1.5mm^2 . The plug connectors must have earthing contacts and be rain-water-proof.
- Keep the machine in a safe place and out of the reach of children.
●Always wear goggles, safety gloves and ear muffs when grinding, brushing and cutting. Wear a breathing mask on dusty jobs.
●Never leave any tool keys or adjustment spanners in position on the machine. Before switching on, check that all keys and adjustment spanners have been removed.
- Secure the workpiece (with a clamp) so that it cannot sllp.
- It is Imperative to use a dust extractor when working on stone (cutting or grinding). Make sure the dust extractor is approved for stone dust.

●It is prohibited to use the machine on asbestos materials. Please note the accident prevention regulations in force in your country.
●Use only original spare parts.
●Repairs are to be carried out by qualified electricians only.
●The level of noise at the workplace may exceed 85 dB(A). In this case you will need to introduce noise protection measures for the user. The noise produced by this electric tool is measured in accordance with IEC 59 CO 11, IEC 704, DIN 45635 Part 21, NFS 31-031 (84/537/EEC).
●Make sure of your footing. Avoid abnormal working positions.

●Never carry the machine by its power cable. Keep the power cable sale from damage. Oil, solvent and sharp edges can damage cables.
●Keep your workplace tidy
●Make sure the power switch is off before inserting the plug in the socket.
●Wear suitable clothing. Never wear loose-fitting clothes or jewelry. Use a hair-net on long hair.
- For your own safety, use only the manufacturer's accessories and attachments.
- Use only sharp saw blades that are in perfect condition. Replace bent and cracked saw blades immediately.
●After switching off the jigsaw, do not press against the side of the blade to bring it to a halt.
●Always cut at a steady rate of progress. This will prevent accidents and prolong the life of your jigsaw and the blade.

Operating instructions for the STE 350 electronic jigsaw

STARTING UP

Instant response operation (Figure 3) Switching on: Press the On/Off switch Switching off: Release the On/Off switch

Continuous operation

Switching on: Press the On/Off switch, keep pres sed and lock with the locking button Switching off: Press the On/Off switch and release

Speed control

Infinite variation of the speed is possible by applying more or less pressure to the On/Off switch 10. Slight pressure on the On/Off switch results in low speed. Heavy pressure on the On/Off switch results in high speed. You are thus able to adjust the cutting rate to suit the job in question.

Electronic speed control setting (Figure 4)

Using the knurled screw on the On/Off switch you can pre-set any speed. Turn the knurled screw in PLUS direction for a higher speed and turn it in MINUS direction for a lower speed. The ideal cutting rate depends on the specific material and working conditions.

The general rules for tool speed in cutting operations apply.

Changing the saw blade (Figure 2)

Switch off the jigsaw and remove the plug from the power socket before changing the blade or carrying out any other work on the jigsaw.

Use the supplied hexagon-socket spanner to undo the two screws on the ram (Figure 2). Slide the saw blade into the guide slot and up to the stop between the piston rod and the retention clip. Use the supplied hexagon-socket spanner to tighten the two screws. The teeth of the saw blade must face in cutting direction. Make sure that the saw blade sits properly in the guide slot of the ram and roller.

Adjusting the base

(for mitering and sawing near edges, Figure 5) For miltre and bevel cuts you can swivel the base by up to 45^ in either direction after undoing the two screws on the bottom. The angles 15^ , 30^ and 45^ are marked but you can adjust the saw to any angle between these markings as required.

To adjust the cutting angle, undo the two screws (Figure 5) until you can just about move the blade. Adjust to the required angle and re-tighten the two screws.

To enable you to saw right up to the edge, the base can be pushed backward. To do so, undo the two screws underneath (Figure 5) and push the base to the back. Re-tighten the two screws.

Dust extraction

The Jigsaw is equipped with a dust extractor socket. Any vacuum cleaner can be connected to the socket at the rear of the jigsaw. If you require a special adapter, please contact the manufacturer of your vacuum cleaner.
