Inserting/changing the saw blade

You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the end of these operating instructions. Only use saw blades with single lug shank (T shank). The saw blade should not be longer than required for the intended cut.

Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.

  • Clean the shaft on the saw blade before inserting it. A dirty shaft cannot be securely fixed in place.

If necessary, remove the hood (28).

Pull the SDS lever (19) forward as far as it will go and hold it there. Push the saw blade (16), with the teeth in the cutting direction, into the saw blade receptacle (18) until it clicks into place.

Make sure when inserting the saw blade that the saw blade is in between the jaws of the saw blade guide (15).

  • Check that the saw blade is seated securely. A loose saw blade can fall out and lead to injuries.

For a good cutting result, the jaws of the saw blade guide (15) should be as close as possible to the saw blade (16) without clamping the saw blade. To adjust the distance to the thickness of the saw blade, you can adjust a jaw on the saw blade guide.

Insert the hex key (26) into the adjustment opening (24) in the base plate. Turn the hex key as indicated by the marking next to the adjustment opening (clockwise to shorten the distance, anticlockwise to increase the distance). Make sure that the saw blade can still turn freely.

Pull the SDS lever (19) all the way forwards and remove the saw blade (16).
