more pressure to increase the speed and release pressure to
decrease speed.
5. PLUNGE CUTTING (SEE FIG. E)
WARNING! The plunge cutting procedure is only suitable
for treating soft materials such as wood, plaster board
or similar! Do not work metal materials with the plunge cutting
procedure!
Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting.
Place the machine with the edge of the blade foot onto the
workpiece and switch on. For power tools with stroke speed control,
set the maximum stroke speed. Press the power tool firmly against
the workpiece and allow the saw blade to slowly plunge into the
workpiece.
As soon as the blade foot fully lays on the surface of the workpiece,
continue sawing alongside the desired cutting line. For certain work,
the saw blade can also be inserted turned through by 180° and the
sabre saw can be guided accordingly in a reversed manner.
6. FLUSH CUTTING (SEE FIG. F1, F2)
WARNING! Pay attention that the saw blade always
extends beyond the diameter of the material being
worked. There is danger of kickback.
It is possible to make cuts extremely close to floors, walls and other
difficult areas. Insert the blade shank into the blade clamp with the
blade teeth facing up (opposite to normal working position). This will
make cuts closer to the work surface. Using special flexible blades
insert the blade into the blade clamp with the blade teeth facing
down (normal working position). It will allow flush pipe cutting.
7. WOOD CUTTING
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly clamped to prevent
movement. For easier control use low speed to start cutting, then
increase to correct speed.
8. METAL CUTTING
This saw has different metal cutting capacities depending upon the
type of blade being used and metal being cut.
ALWAYS clamp the work down to prevent it from slipping.
Use a finer blade for ferrous metals and a coarse blade for non-
ferrous metals.
When cutting thin gauge sheet metals, ALWAYS clamp wood on
both sides of the sheet. This will give you a clean cut without excess
vibration or tearing of the metal.
DO NOT force the cutting blade. Forcing the blade will reduce blade
life and cause the blade to break.
NOTE: We recommend that you spread a thin film of oil or other
coolant along the line of cut ahead of the saw. This will allow easier
operation and help extend blade life. When cutting aluminum, use
kerosene.
9. POCKET CUTTING (SOFT MATERIALS ONLY. DO NOT PLUNGE
CUT IN METAL SURFACES.) (SEE FIG. G)
Mark the pocket or internal hole to be cut out. Insert the special
cutting blade with blade teeth facing down and clamp securely.
Angle the saw so that the back edge of the blade guard is resting on
the work surface. Use a slow speed to start the cut to avoid breaking
the blade but increase to correct speed once the cut has started.
With the blade guard held firmly against the work surface, start a
slow but controlled upward swing of the saw. The blade will cut into
and through the material. Always ensure the blade is completely
through the material before cutting the remainder of the pocket.

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR
RECIPROCATING SAW
If your power tool becomes too hot, set the speed to maximum and
run no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the motor.
Always ensure the work-piece is firmly held or clamped to prevent
movement.
The pivoting foot must be held firmly against the material being cut
to reduce saw vibration, blade jumping and blade breakage.
MAINTAINACE
Remove the plug from the socket before carrying out any
adjustment, servicing or maintenance.
There are no user serviceable parts in your power tool.
Never use water or chemical cleaners to clean your power tool. Wipe
clean with a dry cloth. Always store your power tool in a dry place.
Keep the motor ventilation slots clean.Keep all working controls free
of dust. Occasionally you may see sparks through the ventilation
slots. This is normal and will not damage your power tool.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order
to avoid a hazard.
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
Waste electrical products must not be disposed of with
household waste. Please recycle where facilities exist.
Check with your local authorities or retailer for recycling
advice.
