Ejecting saw blade
L When ejecting the saw blade, hold the elec-
tric power tool such that no persons or an-
imals can be injured.
X
Push the saw blade ejection
as far as the stop.
If the saw blade is not ejected: run jigsaw
3 - 10 seconds at a high speed. Actuate saw
blade ejector mechanism [3-3]once again.
7.2 Using the chip guard
The chip guard [3-1]
away and improves the efficiency of the chip
extraction system.
X Using minimal pressure, push the chip
guard [3-1] downwards.
7.3 Inserting splinterguard
The splinterguard makes cuts with splinter-
free cutting edges possible, even on the exit
side of the saw blade.
X
With the machine switched off, push the
splinterguard [4-1]
the saw blade [4-2],
X
switch on the jigsaw,
X with the machine running (Speed range 5),
push the splinterguard in on a flat plane
until it is flush with the front edge of the
saw table. This beds in the splinterguard.
L When it is worn, push the splinterguard ap-
prox. 3 mm further to the rear and continue
using it.
L To guarantee reliable operation of the splin-
terguard, it must seal tightly on both sides
of the saw blade. For splinter-free cuts,
therefore, a new splinterguard should also
be used after every saw blade change.
7.4 Changing saw table
X
Open the change lever [1-9].
X Removing the saw table downwards.
L Assembly is performed in reverse sequence
to removal. Ensure that the saw table is
firmly seated in the guide.
Instead of the saw table, the angle table WT-
PS 400 or adaptation table ADT-PS 400 can be
installed at the support.
Never saw without the saw table, or one
of the other tables offered in the Festool
accessories program.

7.5 Dust extraction
WARNING
Dust hazard
X Dust can be hazardous to health. Always
work with a dust extractor.
X
Always read applicable national regula-
tions before extracting hazardous dust.
The extraction adapter
be connected to a dust extractor (hose diam-
eter 27 mm).
X Insert the extraction adapter into the rear
opening of the saw table so that the hook
[5-2] engages in the
X To remove the extraction adapter, press the
hook [5-2].
L Due to the low power consumption of the
machine (low energy consumption), dust
extractors with an automatic switch-on
function will sometimes only start up when
the actual cut is made.
X Set the dust extractor to continuous opera-
tion for special applications (e.g. low stroke
rate, soft wood).
7.6 Adjusting the pendulum stroke
In order to process different materials with an
optimum feed movement the pendulum jig-
saws have an adjustable pendulum stroke. Se-
lect the desired setting with the pendulum
stroke switch [1-12]:
setting 0 = pendulum stroke off
setting 3 = maximum pendulum stroke
Recommended settings of the pendu-
lum stroke
Hard and soft wood,chip board,
wood fibre board
Wood core plywood, plywood, plas-
tics
Ceramic
Aluminium, NF metals
Steel
7.7 Stroke speed control
The number of strokes can be adjusted step-
lessly with the adjusting wheel
1500 and 3800 rpm (PSB 400 EBQ: 1000 -
3800 rpm). This enables you to optimise the
cutting speed to suit the respective material.
