♦ Re-insert the battery (4). If the charging indicators
continues flashing red at a fast rate, use a different battery
to determine if the charging process works properly.
♦ If the replaced battery charges correctly, the original battery
is defective and should be returned to a service centre
for recycling.
♦ If the new battery gives the same indication as the original
battery, take the charger to be tested at an authorised
services centre.
Note: It may take as long as 60 minutes to determine that the
battery is defective. If the battery is too hot or too cold, the
LED will alternately blink red, fast and slow, one flash at each
speed and repeat.
Switching on and off
The variable speed on/off switch offers a choice of speeds for
greatly improved cutting rates in various materials.
♦ To switch the tool on, squeeze the variable speed on/off
switch (1).
♦ To switch the tool off, release the variable speed on/off
switch (1).
Sawing
♦ Always hold the tool with both hands.
♦ Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting
the cut.
♦ Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while performing
the cut.
♦ If possible, work with the shoe (3) pressed against the
workpiece. This will improve tool control and reduce tool
vibration, as well as prevent the blade from being damaged.
Hints for optimum use
Sawing wood
♦ Clamp the workpiece securely and remove all nails and
metal objects.
♦ Holding the tool with both hands, work with the shoe (3)
pressed against the workpiece.
Flush cutting
The compact design of the reciprocating saw motor housing
and pivoting shoe permit close cutting to floors, corners and
other difficult areas.
To maximize flush cutting capabilities:
♦ Insert the blade shaft into the blade clamp with the teeth
of the blade facing up.
♦ Adjust the angle of the handle on the tool so you are as
close to the work surface as possible.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time
than sawing wood.
♦ Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal. Use a fine-tooth
saw blade for ferrous metals and a coarser saw blade for
non-ferrous metals.
♦ When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap wood
to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through this
sandwich.

♦ Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.
Pocket cutting in wood
♦ Measure and mark the required pocket cut.
♦ Fit a saw blade suitable for pocket cutting.
♦ Rest the shoe (3) on the workpiece in such a position that
the blade forms an appropriate angle for the pocket cut.
♦ Switch on the tool and slowly feed the blade into the
workpiece. Make sure that the shoe (3) remains in contact
with the workpiece at all times.
Cutting branches
Branches up to 25 mm in diameter can be cut with this tool.
Warning! Do not use the tool while in a tree, on a ladder or on
any other unstable surface.
Be aware of where the branch will fall.
♦ Cut downward and away from your body.
♦ Make the cut close to the main branch or tree body.
Vertical cutting
The tool allows close cutting to corners and other difficult areas.
♦ Insert the shank of the saw blade into the blade holder with
the teeth of the blade facing upward.
♦ Hold the tool with the shoe (3) facing downward so that you
are as close to the work surface as possible.
♦ Cut forward and away from your body.
WARNING! Do not use this tool to mix or pump easily
combustible or explosive fluids (benzine, alcohol, etc.).
Do not mix or stir inflammable liquids labelled
accordingly.
