An estimation of the level of exposure to vibra-
tion should also take into account the times
when the tool is switched off or when it is run-
ning but not actually doing the job. This may
significantly reduce the exposure level over the
total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the
operator from the effects of vibration such as:
maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

Inserting/Replacing Saw Blades

Wear protective gloves when mounting the
saw blades. Danger of injury when touching
the saw blades.
Whenever working on the machine, always
mount the saw blade guard 11 on the saw
blades.
Choice of Saw blades
Choose the saw blades with respect to the ma-
terial being worked.
For sawing light building materials, only use
carbide-tipped saw blades. Do not use saw
blades intended for sawing wood or plastics.
Inserting the Saw Blades (see figures I – J)
Turn the machine around so that the base plate
faces upward.
If required, remove the extraction duct 8 (see
"Extraction Duct", page 18).
Always insert the saw blade first whose corre-
sponding driving pin 17 is closer to the motor.
Note: Each time after switching off, the driving
pins 17 for the saw blades are in a different posi-
tion. The illustration shows a random position.
The lettering on the saw blade 12 must
always face outward and correspond with
the colour of the driving pin 17.
Press and hold the SDS button 9. This causes the
engaging pin 18 to move back and the saw blades
can be hooked in.
