3.7 4 orbital-action settings The 4 orbital-action settings allow cutting performance and quality of cut to be adjusted to suit the material to be cut. The orbital-action adjustment lever is used to set the power tool to one of the 4 settings. The lower the orbital-action setting, the finer and cleaner the cut edges will be. The optimum setting can be determined by carrying out practical tests.

Inadvertent starting of the product.
5.3 Removing the battery 1. Press the battery release buttons. 2. Remove the battery from the tool. 5.4 Fitting the saw blade 1. Remove the battery. → page 9 2. Push the saw blade (teeth facing the cutting direction) into the blade holder until it engages. 3. Grip and pull the saw blade to check that it is held securely. 5.5 Ejecting the saw blade WARNING Risk of injury. Uncontrolled ejection of the saw blade can lead to injury.
1. Remove the battery. → page 9 2. Push the saw blade release lever to the side, as far as it will go. ◁ The saw blade will be released and ejected. 5.6 Fitting the guard 1. Remove the battery. → page 9 2. Push the guard onto the power tool from the front until it clicks into place. Note The guard can be fitted only when the base plate is in the normal position (zero degrees position). 5.7 Removing the guard 1. Remove the battery. → page 9 10 English Printed: 11.10.
2. Tilt the guard slightly and pull it off toward the front. 5.8 Dust removal system Note The dust removal system reduces dust emissions, increases working safety by providing better visibility of the cutting line and reduces exposure to dust and wood chips at the workplace. 1. Fit the guard. → page 10 2. Connect the dust removal system to the suction adapter when you intend to work for long periods on wood or other materials that can generate high levels of dust. 5.8.1 Fitting the suction adapter 1.
5.8.2 Removing the suction adapter 1. Press the two retaining catches inwards. 2. Pull the suction adapter away from the base plate toward the rear. 3. Pull the vacuum cleaner hose off the suction adapter. 5.8.3 Cleaning the suction adapter 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Remove the battery. → page 9 Remove the suction adapter. → page 12 Clean the suction adapter. Check that the catches are undamaged. Fit the suction adapter. → page 11 5.9 Setting the orbital action 1.
▶ Set the stroke rate regulator thumbwheel to a setting between 1 (low) and 6 (high). 5.11 Setting the cutting angle 1. Remove the battery. → page 9 2. Remove the suction adapter. → page 12 3. Slacken the screw on the base plate. 4. Adjust the base plate to the desired cutting angle (from 0° to 45° in both directions). Note When set to a cutting angle of 0°, the base plate is engaged in position to prevent rotation. To set a different cutting angle, the base plate must first be pulled back.
1. Remove the battery. → page 9 2. Press the anti-splinter insert into the base plate from below. 6 Operation 6.1 Switching on 1. Insert the battery. → page 8 Note A safety interlock ensures that the tool doesn’t start when the tool is first switched on and the battery then fitted, i.e. slid into place on the tool. 2. 3. 4. 5. Check that the lockbutton is in the middle position. Press the on/off switch. To lock the switch in the “on” position, then push the lockbutton to the right.
4. Press the product firmly against the workpiece and begin the plunge cut by slowly reducing the angle of attack. 5. Once the blade has penetrated right through the workpiece, bring the product into its normal working position. ◁ The base plate then lies flat on the working surface. 6. Continue to saw along the cutting line. 7 Care 7.
Storage CAUTION Inadvertent damage caused by defective battery. A leaking battery may damage the tool. ▶ Always remove the battery before storing the tool. Store the tool and batteries in a place that is as cool and dry as possible. Never store batteries in direct sunlight, on heating units or behind a window pane. Store the tool and batteries in a place where they cannot be accessed by children or unauthorized persons. Check the tool and batteries for damage before use after long periods of storage.
It collects a high percentage of the dust generated and can be quickly and easily attached to the orbitalaction jig saw. The dust removal module is equipped with a suction fan. This fan is driven by its own motor. When the orbital-action jig saw is switched on the dust removal module draws its electric power from the power tool’s battery. The dust removal module is not suitable for working on materials containing asbestos, metal dust and glass- or carbon-fiber dust.
