Adjusting three saw blade guide

The pendulum jigsaws have an additional
hard metal guide [3-2] immediately above
the workpiece for a better guidance of the
saw blade.
Tighten the screw [3-3] with the Allen key
[1-4] until the jaws almost rest against the
saw blade.
The saw blade should still be able to be
moved easily!
7.3

Fitting the splinterguard

The splinterguard allows cuts with splinter-free
edges, even on the exit side of the saw blade.
With the tool switched off, fit the splinterguard
[4-3] on the guide [4-2] up to the saw blade.
Switch the jigsaw on.
With the tool running, push the splinterguard
in until the splinterguard is flush with the front
edge of the base runner. Thereby the splinter-
guard is cut in.
The splinterguard must lie close to the
saw blade on both sides to ensure its reli-
able operation. Thus, a new splinterguard
should be fitted every time the saw blade
is changed to ensure splinter-free cuts.
7.4

Fitting the chip guard

The chip guard prevents chips from flying off and
improves the efficiency of the chip extractor.
Insert the chip guard [2-8] between the base
runner and chuck lever.
Push back the chip guard with a slight pres-
sure until it catches in place.

Dust extraction

WARNING
Dust hazard
Dust can be hazardous to health. Always
work with a dust extractor.
Always read applicable national regula-

Jigsaws can be connected to a dust extractor
(hose diameter 27 mm) using the extractor
adapter [2-4].
When working with suction units, always
use a splinterguard in order to prevent the
suction channels becoming blocked.

Insert the extractor adapter into the rear
hole of the base runner in so that the hook
[2-6] catches in the notch [2-7].
Press the lever [2-5] to remove the extractor
adapter.
