"I"/"O" position
! before the accessory reaches the workpiece, the
tool should run at full speed
! before switching off the tool, you should lift it
from the workpiece
• Adjusting working speed 8
- with wheel F the required oscillating frequency can be
adjusted from low (1) to high (6) (also while tool
is running)
- the optimal working speed depends on the material
and can be determined with practical trials
• Holding and guiding the tool
! while working, always hold the tool at the
grey-coloured grip area(s) 9
- keep ventilation slots G 2 uncovered
- do not apply too much presssure on the tool
(excessive pressure will cause excessive heat and
may shorten the service life of the accessory)

power level 103 dB(A) (standard deviation: 3 dB),
and the vibration ✱ (hand-arm method)
✱ when sanding 8.8 m/s² (uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s²)
✱ when cutting with plunge-cut saw blade 13.9 m/s²
(uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s²)
✱ when cutting with segment saw blade 7.2 m/s²
(uncertainty K = 1.5 m/s²)
• The vibration emission level has been measured in
accordance with a standardised test given in EN 60745; it
