packs. If necessary, consult your freight forwarder.
Certified packaging is available from Metabo.
Only send the battery pack if the housing is intact
and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack
from the machine for sending. Prevent the contacts
from short-circuiting (e.g. by protecting them with
adhesive tape).
Reducing dust exposure:
Some of the dust created using this power tool
may contain chemicals known to cause
cancer, allergic reaction, respiratory disease, birth
defects or other reproductive harm. Some of these
substances include: lead (in paint containing lead),
mineral dust (from bricks, concrete etc.), additives
used for wood treatment (chromate, wood
preservatives), some wood types (such as oak or
beech dust), metals, asbestos.
The risk from exposure to such substances will
depend on how long you or bystanders are being
exposed.
Do not let particles enter the body.
Do the following to reduce exposure to these
substances: ensure good ventilation of the
workplace and wear appropriate protective
equipment, such as respirators able to filter
microscopically small particles.
Observe the relevant guidelines for your material,
staff, application and place of application (e.g.
occupational health and safety regulations,
disposal).
Collect the generated particles at the source, avoid
deposits in the surrounding area.
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this
way, fewer particles enter the environment in an
uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:
- Do not direct the escaping particles and the
exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons
or on dust deposits.
- Use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers
- Ensure good ventilation of the workplace and
keep clean using a vacuum cleaner Sweeping or
blowing stirs up dust
- Vacuum or wash protective clothing Do not blow,
beat or brush.

Remove the battery pack from the machine
before any adjustment or maintenance is
carried out. Make sure that the tool is switched off
before fitting the battery pack.
6.1 Battery pack
Charge the battery pack (13) before use.
Recharge the battery pack if performance dimin-
ishes.
The ideal storage temperature is between 10°C and
30°C.
Li-Ion battery packs “Li-Power, LiHD“ have a
capacity and signal indicator (20):
- Press the button (21); the LEDs indicate the
charge level.
- The battery pack is almost flat and must be
recharged if one LED is flashing.
Removal:
Press the battery pack release (14) button and pull
the battery pack (13) upwards
.
Inserting:
Slide in the battery pack (13) until it engages.
6.2 Setting cutting depth
Loosen the locking lever (19) for adjustment. Read
the depth of cut that has been set from the scale
(16). Tighten the locking screw again.
It is advisable to set the depth of cut in such a way
that no more than half of each tooth on the saw
blade juts out under the workpiece. See illustration
on page 3.
6.3 Slanting saw blade for diagonal cuts
Loosen the locking screws (1). Tilt the motor part
against the guide plate (15). Read the angle which
has been set from the scale (2). Tighten the locking
screws again.
