1 Specified Use
The tool is suitable for sawing wood, metals, plastics or similar materials such as hard rubber, fibre
glass, etc.
The user bears sole responsibility for any damage
caused by unspecified use.
Generally accepted accident prevention regulations and the enclosed safety information must be
observed.
2 General Safety Rules
1 WARNING! Read and understand all
instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may
result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal
injury.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
2 Work Area
Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.
2.2
Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases, or dust.

can cause you to lose control.
3 Electrical Safety
3.1
Double insulated tools are equipped with a
polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician to install a
polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any
way.
Double insulation eliminates the need for
the three-wire grounded power cord and
grounded power supply system.
Applicable only to Class II (double insulated) tools.
3.2
Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Replace damaged cords
immediately.

3.5
When operating a power tool outside, use
an outdoor extension cord marked "W-A" or
"W".
These cords are rated for outdoor use and
reduce the risk of electric shock.

3 Specific Safety Rules
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when
performing an operation where the cutting tool
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Contact with a "Iive" wire will also make exposed
metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the
operator.
Before using this power tool, completely read and
understand the enclosed safety information and
the instructions. Keep all enclosed documentation
for future reference, and pass on your power tool
only together with this documentation.
For your own protection and for
the protection of your power tool
pay attention to all parts of the text
that are marked with this symbol!
Pull the plug out of the plug socket before any
adjustments or servicing are performed.
Always wear protective goggles, gloves, and
sturdy shoes when working with this tool.
Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free

Materials that generate dusts or vapours that may
be harmful to health (e.g. asbestos) must not be
processed.
The dust created when working is often harmful to

a dust extractor and in addition wear a suitable
dust protection mask. Thoroughly remove any
dust deposits, e.g. by vacuum cleaning.
Do not reach under the workpiece while the
machine is in operation.
Do not try to saw extremely small workpieces.
Clamp the workpiece firmly. Under no circum-
stances should you hold the workpiece with your
hand or foot.
Only use sharp, undamaged saw blades. Do not
use saw blades that are cracked or that have
changed their shape.
For sawing, the guide must make secure contact
with the workpiece.
Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off
when the plug is removed from the mains socket or
if there has been a power cut.
Always hold the machine with both hands at the
intended handles, take a secure stance and
concentrate on the work.
Always route the connecting cable away from the
tool towards the rear.
Danger of injury due to the sharp saw blade.
Do not touch the moving saw blade! Remove chips
and similar material only with the machine at a
standstill.

5 Assembly, Initial Operation,
Setting
Before plugging in, check to see that the
rated mains voltage and mains frequency,
as stated on the rating label, match your
power supply.
5.1 Inserting / replacing the saw blade
Do not touch the saw blade immediately
following operation of the tool, as it can be
extremely hot and can lead to skin burns.
For access to the saw blade quick-clamping
device (2), it must be in its outermost position. If
required: press the trigger switch (7) lightly to
move the saw blade quick-clamping device into its
outermost position.
Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
For access to the saw blade quick-clamping
device (2), adjust the guide (1) if required.
1 Turn the clamping sleeve (3) in the direction of
the arrow and hold it.
2 Insert the saw blade as far as it will go or
remove it.
3 Release the clamping sleeve (3) (the clamping
sleeve rotates back to its original position).
4 Check that the saw blade is securely seated.

Note:
Should it occur that a saw blade has broken
off and it cannot be removed by hand from the saw
blade quick-clamping device, turn the clamping
sleeve in the direction of the arrow and hold.
Engage the tip of a saw blade in the broken section
and pull it out. A fine-toothed metal saw blade is
best suited for this task. See Fig. A, page 3.
Note:
Should it occur that, with the saw blade
inserted, the clamping sleeve cannot be turned:
move the saw blade upwards and downwards by
hand and simultaneously turn the clamping sleeve
in the direction of the arrow.
5.2 Setting the guide
The cutting depth can be limited by shifting the
guide (1) (e.g. when sawing in front of a wall).
Occasionally shift the guide (1) to achieve even
wear of the saw blade.
Release the clamping lever (4) and shift the guide
(1) along the length of the machine. Secure the
guide again using the clamping lever.
Note:
If the guide is pulled out too far, the clamping lever cannot be closed and locked for
reasons related to safety

5.3 Pendulum action of the saw blade
The pendulum action of the saw blade increases
the sawing power (particularly in the case of soft
materials such as wood and plastics). Furthermore, the pendulum action reduces the stress
applied to the saw blade, as it is raised when emerging from the workpiece.
Use the rotary switch (6) to switch the pendulum
action on and off.
For particularly exact sawing cuts and for processing metals: switch off the pendulum action.
ENGLISH
Secure the guide firmly using the clamping
lever. The clamping lever must lock into
place.
Pendulum action ON
Pendulum action OFF
6 Operation
6.1 Switching on and off
To switch on: press the trigger switch (7).
To switch off: let go of the trigger switch (7).
After completing the sawing cut, switch off the
machine and only take it out of the sawn gap to
place it down once the saw blade has come to a
standstill (danger of recoil).
Plunge cuts:
Plunge cuts may only be made in soft materials
such as wood or plastic. Only use short saw
blades.
Hold the machine with both hands at the intended
handles, take a secure stance and concentrate on
the work.
See Fig. B, page 3. The machine is pressed with
the edge of the guide (1) against the workpiece.
The saw blade does not make contact with the
workpiece. Switch on the machine. The corner of
the guide serves as a pivot point around which the
machine is slowly aligned, whereby the saw blade
cuts into the workpiece.
6.4 Tips and Tricks
To saw tight curves: Use narrow saw blades.
Sawing metal: To increase the life of the saw
blades, apply cooling lubricant along the cutting
line.
6.2 Stepless stroke rate setting
The stroke rate can be changed steplessly by
varying the pressure applied to the trigger switch
(7), thus adapting it to the material and working
conditions.
6.3 Working Directions
Sawing:
Use a saw blade geared to the material to be sawn.
Depending on the use case, switch the pendulum
action on or off.
Press the machine with the guide (1) against the
workpiece. Switch on the machine, and only then
guide the saw blade against the workpiece.
Do not make contact with any objects or with the
ground with the moving saw blade (danger of
recoil!)
Adapt the stroke rate to the material to the sawn.
Avoid excessive pressure on the saw blade (parti-
cularly in the case of long saw blades).
If the saw blade jams, turn the machine off imme-
diately. Widen the sawn gap slightly with a suitable
tool and take out the machine.
7 Maintenance
On a regular basis, use compressed air to blow out
the machine through the rear ventilation slots.
Regularly clean the saw blade quick-clamping
device (2) and blow out with compressed air. Do
not oil or grease.
8 Accessories
Use only genuine Metabo accessories.
If you need any accessories, check with your
dealer. The dealer needs to know the exact model
designation of your power tool in order to select
the correct accessory.
See page 4.
