Protection class
The specifications apply to a rated voltage [U] of 230 V. These specifications may vary at different voltages and in country-specific models.
Noise/Vibration Information
Noise emission values determined according to
EN 62841‑2‑11.
Typically, the A-weighted noise level of the power tool is:
Sound pressure level 88 dB(A); sound power level
99 dB(A). Uncertainty K = 5 dB.

The vibration level and noise emission value given in these
instructions have been measured in accordance with a
standardised measuring procedure and may be used to com-
pare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary
estimation of vibration and noise emissions.
The stated vibration level and noise emission value repres-
ent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the
power tool is used for other applications, with different ap-
plication tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration level
and noise emission value may differ. This may significantly
increase the vibration and noise emissions over the total
working period.
To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the
times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but
not actually being used should also be taken into account.
This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions
over the total working period.
Implement additional safety measures to protect the oper-
ator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the
power tool and application tools, keeping their hands warm,
and organising workflows correctly.
Assembly
Pull the plug out of the socket before carrying out any
u
work on the power tool.
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.
Selecting the saw blade
You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the
end of these operating instructions. Only use saw blades
with a single lug shank (T shank) or with a 1/4" universal
shank (U shank). The saw blade should not be longer than
required for the intended cut.
Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.

Inserting the saw blade (see figures A and E)
Clean the shaft on the saw blade before inserting it.
u
A dirty shaft cannot be securely fixed in place.
Push the saw blade receptacle (14) upwards in the direction
of the arrow. Push the saw blade (9), with the teeth in the
cutting direction, into the saw blade receptacle as far as it
will go.
Make sure when inserting the saw blade that the back of the
saw blade is in the groove on the guide roller (8).
Precise cuts are only possible if the guide roller (8) fits
closely – but not too tightly – against the back of the saw
blade (ensure that the saw blade (9) is not bent by the guide
roller). If necessary, loosen the screw (18) and slide the
bracket (17) for the guide roller so that the guide roller fits
closely against the back of the saw blade. Retighten the
screw (18).
Check that the saw blade is seated securely. A loose
u
saw blade can fall out and lead to injuries.
Removing the saw blade (see figure B)
Push the saw blade receptacle (14) upwards in the direction
of the arrow and remove the saw blade (9).
If the saw blade jams during removal, press the saw blade re-
ceptacle (14) slightly forward (max. 2 mm).
Anti-splinter guard (accessory) (see figure C)
The anti-splinter guard (15) (accessory) can prevent splin-
tering of the surface while sawing wood. The anti-splinter
guard can only be used with certain saw blade types and only
at a cutting angle of 0°. When sawing with the anti-splinter
guard, the base plate (6) must not be moved to the rear for
sawing close to edges.
Push the anti-splinter guard (15) into the base plate (6)
from below (as shown in the figure with the groove facing up-
wards).
Cut Control (accessory)
Cut Control enables the power tool to be guided precisely
along a cutting line marked on the workpiece. Cut Control
includes the viewing window (10) with cut marks and the
base (11) for securing to the power tool.
Securing Cut Control to the base plate (see figure D)
Firmly insert the viewing window for Cut Control (10) into
the brackets on the base (11). Then push the base together
gently and allow it to click into place in the accessory holder
(16) on the base plate (6).
Dust/Chip Extraction
The dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of
wood, minerals and metal can be harmful to human health.
Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reac-
tions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in
