Use only short saw blades for plunge cutting.
– Place the machine with the edge of the footplate 2 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 footplate 2 fully lays on the surface of the
workpiece, continue sawing alongside the desired cutting
line.
For certain work, the saw blade 1 can also be inserted turned
through by 180° and the sabre saw can be guided accordingly
in a reversed manner.
Coolant/Lubricant
When sawing metal, coolant/lubricant should be applied
alongside cutting line because of the material heating up.
Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the Battery
Protect the battery against moisture and water.
Store the battery only within a temperature range between
0 °C and 50 °C. As an example, do not leave the battery in the
car in summer.
Occasionally clean the venting slots of the battery using a soft,
clean and dry brush.
A significantly reduced working period after charging indi-
cates that the battery is used and must be replaced.
Observe the notes for disposal.

Maintenance and Cleaning

Warning! Prior to any maintenance and cleaning, switch
the machine off and secure the lock-off button 6.
For safe and proper working, always keep the machine
and ventilation slots clean.
Clean the saw blade holder preferably with compressed air or
a soft brush. Remove the saw blade from the power tool for
this. Ensure proper operation of the saw blade holder by ap-
plying a suitable lubricant.
Heavy contamination of the machine can lead to malfunc-
tions. Therefore, do not saw materials that produce a lot of
dust from below or overhead.
If the machine should fail despite the care taken in manufac-
turing and testing procedures, repair should be carried out by
an after-sales service centre for Bosch power tools.
In all correspondence and spare parts order, please always in-
clude the 10-digit article number given on the type plate of
the machine.
