WARNING: Allow the tool to reach the required speed before making contact
with the workpiece.
WARNING: Motor vents allow heat generated from the motor to escape the body of the
tool and must not become blocked. Dust, wood chippings and swarf can block the motor vents
and cause the tool to shut down. Swarf, created when cutting metal, can also cause permanent
damage if it enters the tool. Do not allow dust, wood chippings and swarf to build up. Use a
vacuum cleaner to keep the work space clean, especially in confined areas, and when working
with harmful substances.
WARNING: DO NOT inhale dust. Wear adequate breathing protection. Some dusts may
be toxic, especially from man-made composite materials.
Adjusting the tool speed
• The oscillating speed of this multi-tool can be adjusted over the Variable Speed Dial.
1. Turn the Variable Speed Dial to a higher setting, to increase tool speed.
2. Turn the Variable Speed Dial to a lower setting, to decrease tool speed.
Note: Adjust tool speed to best suit the work carried out, and to adapt to material requirements.
Also refer to the accessory manufacturer's instructions, with regards to tool speed selection.
Sawing (accessory not supplied)
• Ensure the saw blade is sharp and in good condition.
• DO NOT use saw blades that are damaged or deformed in any way.
• When sawing light building materials, follow the recommendations of the material suppliers.
• Apply plunge cuts to soft materials ONLY, for example wood, plasterboard etc.
• If using saw blades not designed for cutting metal, ensure there are no nails or screws em-
bedded in the workpiece. If necessary, remove embedded objects or use metal cutting saw
blades instead.
Sanding
• The removal rate and the sanding pattern are determined by the type of sanding sheet, the
preset oscillation rate and the applied pressure.
• Pay particular attention to applying uniform sanding pressure; this increases the working life
of the sanding sheets.
• Intensifying the sanding pressure will not lead to an increase of the sanding capacity, but to
increased wear of the machine and premature wear of the sanding sheet.
• For precise on-the-spot sanding of edges, corners and hard-to-reach areas, it is also possi-
ble to work only with the tip or an edge of the sanding plate.
• A sanding sheet that has been used for sanding metal should not be used for sanding other
materials.
• Regularly brush down or vacuum the surface being sanded to ensure the sanding sheet is in
direct contact with the surface.
Scraping
• For scraping, select a high speed setting.
• On soft surfaces (e.g. wood), work at a flat angle and apply only light pressure so that the
scraper does not cut into the surface.
