Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to 50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer,
for example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has deteriorated and must be
replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Assembly
Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Inserting/changing the saw blade
When fitting or changing the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Blades are sharp and can become hot
when used for prolonged periods of time.
Selecting the saw blade
You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the end of these operating instructions. Only use saw
blades with a single lug shank (T shank) or with a 1/4″ universal shank (U shank). The saw blade should not be
longer than required for the intended cut.
Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.
Inserting the saw blade (see figure A)
Clean the shaft on the saw blade before inserting it.
A dirty shaft cannot be securely fixed in place.
If necessary, remove the hood (12).
Push the saw blade receptacle (18) upwards in the direction of the arrow. Push the saw blade (15), with the teeth in
the cutting direction, into the saw blade receptacle as far as it will go.
Make sure when inserting the saw blade that the back of the saw blade is in the groove on the guide roller (13).
Check that the saw blade is seated securely. A loose saw blade can fall out and lead to injuries.
Removing the saw blade (see figure B)
Push the saw blade receptacle (18) upwards in the direction of the arrow and remove the saw blade (15).
Saw blade storage compartment (see figure C)
You can keep up to six saw blades that are no longer than 110 mm in the saw blade storage compartment (9). Insert
the saw blades with single lug shank (T shank) into the saw blade storage compartment in the recess intended for
these. You can place up to three saw blades on top of each other. Close the saw blade storage compartment and
push it as far as it will go into the recess in the base plate (10).
Anti-splinter guard (see figure D)
The anti-splinter guard (21) (accessory) can prevent splintering of the surface while sawing wood. The anti-splinter
guard can only be used with certain saw blade types and only at a cutting angle of 0°. When sawing with the anti-
splinter guard, the base plate (10) must not be moved to the rear for sawing close to edges.
Push the anti-splinter guard (21) into the base plate (10) from below (as shown in the gure with the groove facing
upwards).
Cut Control
Cut Control enables the power tool to be guided precisely along a cutting line marked on the workpiece. Cut Control
includes the viewing window (16) with cut marks and the base (14) for securing to the power tool.
Securing Cut Control to the base plate (see figure E)
Firmly insert the viewing window for Cut Control (16) into the brackets on the base (14). Then push the base together
gently and allow it to click into place in the guide (22) on the base plate (10).
