Warning! Metal or hardwoods should never be
cut in orbital action.
● Slide the cutting action button (6) between the three
cutting positions: 0, 1 and 2.
● Position 0 is for straight cutting.
● Positions 1 and 2 are for orbital cutting.
● The aggressiveness of the cut increases as the lever
is adjusted from one to two, with two being the most
aggressive cut.
Sawing
● Always hold the tool with both hands.
● Let the blade run freely for a few seconds before starting
the cut.
● Apply only a gentle pressure to the tool while performing
the cut.
● If possible, work with the shoe plate (5) pressed against
the workpiece. This will improve tool control and
reduce tool vibration, as well as prevent the blade from
being damaged.
Hints for optimum use
General
● Use a high speed for wood, a medium speed for
aluminium and PVC and a low speed for metals other
than aluminium.
Sawing laminates
As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may
occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.
● Use a fine-tooth saw blade.
● Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
● To minimise splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood or
hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw through
this sandwich.
Sawing metal
Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
sawing wood.
● Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal. Use a fine-
tooth saw blade for ferrous metals and a coarser saw
blade for non-ferrous metals.
● When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap
wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
this sandwich.
● Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.
