9 Tips and Tricks

Sawing different materials
When sawing metal, lubricate the saw blade with a
Metabo lubricating stick. Wet the cutting line with
water when sawing plexiglas. Saw metal sheets
less than 1 mm thick on a wooden base.
Curved cuts
When making curved cuts, we recommend using
narrow, specially designed saw blades.
Plunging
The jigsaw blade can plunge into workpieces
made from thin, soft materials without the neces-
sity of drilling a hole beforehand. Only use short
saw blades. Only at 0° angle setting.
See illustration on page 3. Set the adjustment lever
(13) to position "0" (pendulum motion is switched
off). Position the jigsaw with the front edge of the
footplate (7) 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.

10 Accessories

Use only genuine Metabo accessories.
If you need any accessories, check with your
dealer.
The dealer needs to know the exact model of your
power tool in order to select the correct accessory.
See page 4.
