Operating Instructions
PROTECTION AGAINST DEEP
DISCHARGING
The lithium ion battery is protected against
deep discharging by the “Electronic Cell
Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is empty,
the tool is switched off by means of a
protective circuit.
Do not continue to press
the trigger switch after
the tool has been automatically switched
off. The battery can be damaged.
VARIABLE SPEED CONTROLLED
TRIGGER SWITCH
Your tool is equipped with a variable speed
controlled trigger switch. The tool can be
turned "ON" or "OFF" by squeezing or
releasing the trigger. The blade plunger stroke
rate can be adjusted from the minimum to
maximum nameplate stroke rate by the
pressure you apply to the trigger. Apply more
pressure to increase the speed and release
pressure to decrease speed.
BUILT-IN LED WORK LIGHT
Your tool is equipped with an LED work light
that turns on automatically when the trigger
switch is activated. When the tool is turned
off, the light turns off (Fig. 1).

and vibration.
4. Squeeze the trigger to start the tool. Let the
saw reach full speed before starting the cut.
Guide the saw so that the blade will move
along the marked line.
