Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the
Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to
50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for
example.
Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a
soft brush that is clean and dry.
A significantly reduced operating time after charging indic-
ates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.
Follow the instructions on correct disposal.
Assembly
Remove the battery from the power tool before carry-
u
ing out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance,
changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be re-
moved for transport and storage. There is risk of injury
from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.
Inserting/changing the saw blade
When fitting or changing the saw blade, wear protect-
u
ive gloves. Blades are sharp and can become hot when
used for prolonged periods of time.
While replacing the saw blade, ensure that the saw
u
blade receptacle is free of material residue, e.g. wood
or metal chips.
Selecting the saw blade
You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the
end of these operating instructions. Only use saw blades
1 609 92A 8E0 | (15.11.2022)
with a 1/2" universal shank. The saw blade should not be
longer than required for the intended cut.
Inserting the saw blade (see figure A)
Firmly push the saw blade (1) into the saw blade
Capacity
receptacle (3) until it audibly engages. The locking
60–100 %
sleeve (4) consequently rotates by approx. 90° and locks
the saw blade in place.
30–60 %
If the saw blade (1) is not locked, rotate the locking
5–30 %
sleeve (4) by approx. 90° in the direction of the arrow until it
0–5 %
is locked in the open position and a clicking sound is heard.
Then push the saw blade into the saw blade receptacle (3)
once again.
Check that it is seated securely by pulling the saw
u
blade. A loose saw blade can fall out and lead to injuries.
For particular jobs, the saw blade (1) can also be flipped
Capacity
180° (teeth point upwards) and refitted.
80–100 %
Ejecting the saw blade (see figure B)
60–80 %
When ejecting the saw blade, hold the power tool in
u
such a manner that no persons or animals can be in-
40–60 %
jured by the ejected saw blade.
20–40 %
Turn the locking sleeve (4) by approx. 90° in the direction of
5–20 %
the arrow. The saw blade (1) is ejected.
0–5 %
Dust/Chip Extraction
Dust from materials such as lead-containing coatings, some
wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to one's
health. Touching or breathing-in the dust can cause allergic
reactions and/or lead to respiratory infections of the user or
bystanders.
Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, is considered carci-
nogenic, especially in connection with wood-treatment ad-
ditives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing
asbestos may only be worked by specialists.
– Provide for good ventilation of the working place.
– It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator.
Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the ma-
terials to be worked.
Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can
u
easily ignite.
