Ensure that the ON/OFF switch (3) is not
n
depressed. Only then should you connect the
mains plug to a suitable socket.
Do not switch on the jigsaw until you have fitted a
n
saw blade.
Use only saw blades that are in perfect condition.

Replace blunt, bent or cracked saw blades
immediately.
Place the saw foot flat on the workpiece you wish
n
to saw. Switch on the jigsaw.
Allow the saw blade to accelerate until it reaches
n
full speed. Then slowly move the saw blade along
the cutting line. Only exert gentle pressure on the
saw blade as you do so.
When cutting metal, apply a suitable coolant
n
along the line you wish to cut.

8.1 Cleaning
Keep all safety devices, air vents and the motor

16
with compressed air at low pressure.
We recommend that you clean the device
n

Clean the equipment regularly with a moist cloth
n
and some soft soap. Do not use cleaning agents
or solvents; these could attack the plastic parts of
the equipment. Ensure that no water can seep
into the device.

In case of excessive sparking, have the carbon
n
brushes checked only by a qualified electrician.
Important! The carbon brushes should not be rep
laced by anyone but a qualified electrician.
8.3 Maintenance
There are no parts inside the equipment which
n
require additional maintenance.
9. Disposal and recycling
The unit is supplied in packaging to prevent its being
damaged in transit. This packaging is raw material
and can therefore be reused or can be returned to
the raw material system.
The unit and its accessories are made of various
types of material, such as metal and plastic.
Defective components must be disposed of as
special waste. Ask your dealer or your local council.
10. Storage
