If necessary, clean the openings behind the saw
blade support roller (2).
Apply a drop of oil to the saw blade support roller (2)
from time to time.
8. Tips and Tricks
Plunging
The jigsaw blade can plunge into workpieces made
from thin, soft materials without the necessity of
drilling a hole beforehand. Only use short saw
blades. Only at 0° angle setting.
See illustration on page 2. Set the adjustment lever
(6) to the "0" position (pendulum motion is
deactivated). Position the jigsaw with the front edge
of the footplate (5) on the workpiece. Hold the
operating jigsaw firmly and guide slowly
downwards. Once the saw blade has penetrated
the workpiece, the pendulum motion can be
activated.
In thicker workpieces, a hole for inserting the saw
blade must be drilled first.
9. Accessories
Use only genuine Metabo accessories.
Use only accessories which fulfil the requirements
and specifications listed in these operating
instructions.
Fit accessories securely. If the machine is operated
in a holder: Secure the machine well. Loss of control
can cause personal injury.
See page 4.

Attaching the circular-cutting and
parallel guide
For sawing circles (dia. 100 - 360 mm) and making
cuts parallel with edges (max. 210 mm).
Attach circular guide (see Fig. I)
- Slide the rod on the circular-cutting and parallel
guide sideways into the footplate (centre point (c)
faces downwards).
- Set the desired radius (d).
- Tighten screw (b).
Attach parallel guide (see Fig. II)
- Slide the rod on the circular cutting and parallel
guide sideways into the footplate
(the centre point (c) faces upwards).
- Set the dimension (e)
- Tighten screw (b).
In order to minimise saw blade drifting, we
recommend using extra-thick saw blades: 6.23694,
6.23679, 6.23685

10. Repairs
Repairs to electrical tools must ONLY be
carried out by qualified electricians!
Contact your local Metabo representative if you
have Metabo power tools requiring repairs. See
www.metabo.com for addresses.
You can download a list of spare parts from
www.metabo.com.
11. Environmental Protection
Observe national regulations on environmentally
compatible disposal and on the recycling of disused
machines, packaging and accessories.

Emission values
These values make it possible to assess the
emissions from the power tool and to compare
different power tools. The actual load may be higher
or lower depending on the operating conditions, the
condition of the power tool or the accessories.
Please allow for breaks and periods when the load
is lower for assessment purposes. Arrange
protective measures for the user e.g. organisational
measures based on the adjusted estimates.
