WARNING!
► The vibration level will vary according to the
use of the power tool and may sometimes
be higher than the value specified in these
instructions. Regular use of the power tool in
this way may cause the user to underestimate
the vibration. Try to keep the vibration loads
as low as possible. Measures to reduce the
vibration load are, e.g. wearing gloves and
limiting the working time. Wherein all states
of operation must be included (e.g. times
when the power tool is switched off and times
where the power tool is switched on but
running without load).
General Power Tool
Safety Warnings
WARNING!
► Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your
mains-operated (corded) power tool or batteryoperated (cordless) power tool.
1. Work area safety
a) Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
b) Do not operate power tools in explosive
atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools cre-
ate sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.
c) Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
2. Electrical safety
a) Power tool plugs must match the outlet.
Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed
(grounded) power tools. Unmodified plugs
and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric
shock.
b) Avoid body contact with earthed or ground-
ed surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges
and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of
electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
c) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet
conditions. Water entering a power tool will
increase the risk of electric shock.
d) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord
for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power
tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp
edges or moving parts. Damaged or entan-
gled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
e) When operating a power tool outdoors, use
an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.
Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces
the risk of electric shock.
f) If operating a power tool in a damp location
is unavoidable, use a residual current device
(RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD re-
duces the risk of electric shock.
3. Personal safety
a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and
use common sense when operating a power
tool. Do not use a power tool while you are
tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol
or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating power tools may result in serious
personal injury.
b) Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the off-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools
with your finger on the switch or energising
power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before
turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key
left attached to a rotating part of the power tool
may result in personal injury.
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
g) If devices are provided for the connection of
dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure
these are connected and properly used.
Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related
hazards.
4. Power tool use and care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct
power tool for your application. The correct
power tool will do the job better and safer at
the rate for which it was designed.
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannotbe controlled with the switch is dangerous
and must be repaired.
c) Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing accessories or storing power tools. Such preven-
tive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
d) Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children. Do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool. Power tools are dan-
gerous in the hands of untrained users.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalign-
ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may affect
the power tools operation. If damaged, have
the power tool repaired before use. Many ac-
cidents are caused by poorly maintained power
tools.
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits,
etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed. Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
5. Service
a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of
the power tool is maintained.

Appliance-specific safety instructions
for sabre saws
To avoid the risk of injury or fire as well as
health risks:
■ Hold the power tool by the insulated
handles if carrying out work during which
the power tool may come into contact with
concealed power cables or its own power
cable. Contact with a live wire may electrify
exposed metal parts of the power tool and
could give the operator an electric shock.
■ Wear a dust mask!
Original accessories/auxiliary
equipment
■ Use only the accessories and additional
equipment that are specified in the operating instructions and are compatible with
the appliance. Using attachments or acces-
sory tools other than those recommended in
the operating instructions can lead to a risk of
injury.

Guiding the sabre blade safely
To adapt to the workpiece and for safe placement,
the footplate can be swivelled. It must always
be in contact with the workpiece when the appliance is running.
Practical advice on sawing
.
♦ Check the material to be worked to make sure
that all foreign objects have been removed, e.g.
nails, screws, etc..
♦ Ensure that the ventilation slits are not covered.
♦ Switch the appliance on before moving it
towards the material to be worked.
♦ Switch the appliance off immediately if the saw
blade jams.
Open up the sawn gap using a suitable tool
and pull out the sabre saw.
■ Use the appropriate saw blade and stroke rate
for the material to be worked.
■ Saw blades optimised for your sabre saw are
available from retail stores in different lengths
for various purposes.
■ Saw the material at a constant speed.
Sawing flush to edges:
Using flexible saw blades with a suitable corresponding length, you can saw off protruding workpieces such as pipes flush to the wall.
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the saw blade directly against the wall.
2. Bend it by applying lateral pressure to the sabre
saw so that the footplate

3. Switch the appliance on as described and saw
off the work piece by applying constant pressure.

Plunge sawing:
CAUTION! RISK OF KICKBACK!
■ Plunge cuts may only be made in soft
materials (wood or similar).
Proceed as follows:
1. Place the sabre saw with the lower edge of the
footplate onto the workpiece. Switch the
appliance on.
2. Tilt the sabre saw forwards and plunge the saw
blade into the workpiece.
3. Position the sabre saw vertically and continue
sawing along the cutting line.
Maintenance and cleaning
WARNING! RISK OF INJURY!
Always switch the appliance off
before carrying out any work on it.
■ Always remove the power plug from the power
socket before cleaning the appliance.
■ Replace the saw blade as soon as its teeth are
blunt and proper sawing is therefore no longer
possible.
■ Keep the appliance and ventilation slits clean at
all times. If the ventilation slits are blocked, there
is a risk of overheating and/or the appliance
being damaged.
■ Always clean the appliance after completion
of work.
■ Never permit liquids to enter inside the appli-
ance. Use a cloth to clean the housing. Never
use petrol, solvents or cleansers which can
damage plastic.
■ If necessary, clean the saw blade mount with a
brush or compressed air.
