Overview

This document is an instruction manual for a Cordless Reciprocating Saw, identified by model numbers TOOLS-00165/00166. It provides comprehensive information on the device's function, technical specifications, usage, and maintenance.

Function Description:

The machine is designed for sawing various materials including wood, plastic, metal, and building materials. It is intended to be used while resting firmly on the workpiece and is suitable for both straight and curved cuts. The saw operates with a reciprocating action, moving a blade back and forth to cut through materials. It features a quick-action blade clamp for easy blade changes and a holding bracket for enhanced control during certain operations. The tool is cordless, powered by a battery, offering portability and flexibility in use.

Important Technical Specifications:

  • Power: 12 V
  • Speed: 0-2700/min (strokes per minute)
  • Stroke Length: 20mm
  • Max. Cutting Performance (Wood): 80mm
  • Noise Levels:
    • Sound pressure level: 84.3 dB(A) K=3 dB(A)
    • Sound power level: 95.3 dB(A) K=3 dB(A)
  • Vibration Level (ah,WB): 9.154 m/s² k= 1.5 m/s²

Usage Features:

The manual emphasizes several key usage features and safety precautions:

  • Personal Safety: Users are advised to stay alert, wear eye protection, ear protection, and gloves, and avoid operating the tool while tired or under the influence. Loose clothing or jewelry should be avoided.
  • Work Area Safety: The work area should be clean, well-lit, and free from flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Children and bystanders must be kept away.
  • Electrical Safety (for charger): Power tool plugs must match the outlet, and adapter plugs should not be used with earthed power tools. Contact with earthed surfaces should be avoided. The tool and charger should not be exposed to rain or wet conditions.
  • Battery Use and Care: Only the specified charger should be used for recharging. The tool should only be used with specifically designated battery packs. Batteries should be kept away from other metal objects when not in use to prevent shorting. Damaged or modified battery packs or tools should not be used. Batteries should not be exposed to fire or excessive temperatures above 130 °C (265 °F). Charging should occur within the specified temperature range.
  • Starting and Stopping: To switch on, the safety button (5) must be pressed and held, followed by the on/off switch (6). Releasing the on/off switch turns the tool off.
  • Blade Installation: To install a cutting blade, the blade clamp (2) is rotated and held, the blade (8) is inserted, the clamp is loosened, and the blade is pulled to ensure it is securely fastened.
  • Holding Bracket: The holding bracket (1) can be inserted by pressing the release button (3), sliding the bracket over the shoe guides, and locking the release button. It is removed by pressing the release button and pulling the bracket forward.
  • Cutting Techniques:
    • Without Holding Bracket: Recommended for thicker branches or sawing wood/plastic materials. The workpiece should touch the shoe, and a rocking motion can be used for round pieces.
    • With Holding Bracket: Involves moving the saw with slight downward pressure.
    • General Cutting: Requires holding the saw firmly, ensuring the blade is clear of foreign material, and clamping the workpiece securely. The switch is pressed to start, and only enough pressure to keep the saw cutting should be applied.
    • Metal Cutting: Requires a sharp blade designed for metal and lubricating the cutting surface with cutting oil to prevent heat buildup.
    • Plunge Cutting: Involves marking the cut line, placing the blade tip over the point with the saw parallel to the line, slowly lowering the saw until the shoe rests on the workpiece, starting the saw to full speed, and then slowly letting the blade forward onto the cut line until it is perpendicular to the workpiece. A warning states that the blade should not touch the workpiece until the saw reaches maximum speed to prevent loss of control and injury.
  • Battery Indicator: The battery indicator (4) shows the battery's charge level.
  • Charger LED Indicator: Red indicates charging, green indicates charging finished.

Maintenance Features:

  • Battery Removal: Always remove the battery before performing any maintenance or work on the machine.
  • Cleaning: Keep ventilation openings clear and clean the product regularly. The housing should be cleaned with a damp cloth, avoiding solvents, and then thoroughly dried.
  • Inspection and Repair: If anything unusual occurs, switch off the tool, remove the battery, and inspect and repair the tool before further use. Repairs should only be carried out by a qualified repair technician using identical spare parts.
  • Battery Charging: Ensure batteries are charged using the correct charger recommended by the manufacturer.
  • Battery Storage: For long-term storage, batteries should be fully charged and topped up periodically. They should be stored in a dry, frost-free place with an ambient temperature not exceeding 40 °C.
  • Tool Storage: Store the machine, operating instructions, and accessories in the original packaging in a dry place to prevent transit damage and ensure all information and parts are readily available.
  • Cutting Tools: Keep cutting tools sharp and clean for better control and to prevent binding.
  • General Maintenance: Regularly check for misalignment, binding of moving parts, breakage, or any other condition that might affect operation. Damaged tools should be repaired before use.
  • Accessories: Only use accessories recommended by the manufacturer for the specific model.

The manual also includes a section on noise and vibration information, advising users to wear hearing protection and providing vibration emission levels. It suggests measures to limit vibration risk, such as wearing gloves, limiting operating time, and shortening trigger time.
