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. When using the appro-
priate bimetal saw blades, it is possible to cut flush to the
workpiece surface. The saw blade recommendations must be
observed.

ent voltages and models for specific countries, these values can vary.

Noise/Vibration Information

Measured sound values determined according to EN 60745.
Typically the A-weighted noise levels of the product are:
Sound pressure level 95 dB(A); Sound power level
106 dB(A). Uncertainty K =3 dB.

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has
been measured in accordance with a standardised test given
in EN 60745 and may be used to compare one tool with anoth-
er. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main ap-
plications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained,
the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly in-
crease the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also
take into account the times when the tool is switched off or
when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may sig-
nificantly reduce the exposure level over the total working pe-
riod.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator
from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the
accessories, keep hands warm, organise work patterns.

Danger of injury when touching the saw blade.
/II
When changing the saw blade, take care that the saw
blade holder is free of material residue, e. g. wood or
metal shavings.
Selecting a Saw Blade
An overview of recommended saw blades can be found at the
beginning of these instructions. Use only ½" universal shank
saw blades. The saw blade should not be longer than required
for the intended cut.
Use a thin saw blade for narrow curve cuts.
