Place the machine with the front edge of the base
plate 9 on to the workpiece without the saw blade
14 touching the workpiece and switch on. For ma-
chines with stroke rate control, select the maxi-
mum stroke rate. Firmly hold the machine against
the workpiece and by tilting the machine, slowly
plunge the saw blade into the workpiece.
When the base plate 9 fully lays on the workpiece,
continue sawing along the desired cutting line.
Parallel Guide with Circle Cutter (Accessory)
Parallel Cuts (see figure J): Loosen the locking
screw 27 and slide the scale of the parallel guide
through the lead 13 in the base plate. Set the de-
sired cutting width as the scale value on the inside
edge of the base plate. Tighten the locking screw
27.
Circular Cuts (see figure K): Set the locking screw
27 to the other side of the parallel guide. Slide the
scale of the parallel guide through the lead 13 in
the base plate. Drill a hole in the workpiece centred
in the section to be sawn. Insert the centring tip 29
through the inside opening of the parallel guide
and into the drilled hole. Set the radius as the scale
value on the inside edge of the base plate. Tighten
the locking screw 27.
Coolant/Lubricant
When sawing metal, coolant/lubricant should be
applied alongside cutting line because of the mate-
rial heating up.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning

 Before any work on the machine itself (e. g.
maintenance, tool change, etc.) as well as dur-
ing transport and storage, remove the battery
from the power tool. There is danger of injury
when unintentionally actuating the On/Off
switch.
 For safe and proper working, always keep the
machine and ventilation slots clean.
Clean the saw blade holder regularly. For this, re-
move the saw blade from the machine and lightly
tap out the machine on a level surface.
Heavy contamination of the machine can lead to
malfunctions. Therefore, do not saw materials that
produce a lot of dust from below or overhead.
Lubricate the guide roller 10 occasionally with a
drop of oil.
Check the guide roller 10 regularly. If worn, it must
be replaced through an authorised BTI after-sales
service agent.
The plastic sliding shoe 12 should be replaced
when it is worn.

If the machine should fail despite the care taken in
manufacturing and testing procedures, repair
should be carried out by an after-sales service cen-
tre for BTI power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts orders,
please always include the 7-digit order number giv-
en on the nameplate of the machine.
Transport
The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject to
the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.
The user can transport the batteries by road with-
out further requirements.
When being transported by third parties (e.g.: air
transport or forwarding agency), special require-
ments on packaging and labelling must be ob-
served. For preparation of the item being shipped,
consulting an expert for hazardous material is re-
quired.
Dispatch batteries only when the housing is un-
damaged. Tape or mask off open contacts and
pack up the battery in such a manner that it cannot
move around in the packaging.
Please also observe possibly more detailed nation-
al regulations.
Disposal
The machine, rechargeable batteries, acces-
sories and packaging should be sorted for
environmental-friendly recycling.
Do not dispose of power tools and batter-
ies/rechargeable batteries into household
waste!
Only for EC countries:
According to the European Guideline 2012/19/EU,
power tools that are no longer usable, and accord-
ing to the European Guideline 2006/66/EC, defec-
tive or used battery packs/batteries, must be col-
lected separately and disposed of in an
environmentally correct manner.
