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.

Push the saw blade (12), with the teeth in the cutting direction, into the saw blade receptacle (17) until it clicks into place. The SDS lever (18) automatically springs back and the saw blade is locked in place. Do not push the lever (18) back by hand as you could damage the power tool.

Make sure when inserting the saw blade that the back of the saw blade is in the groove on the guide roller (19).

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

  • When ejecting the saw blade, hold the power tool in such a manner that no persons or animals can be injured by the ejected saw blade.

Turn the SDS lever (18) as far as it will go in the direction of the safety guard (14). The saw blade is released and ejected.
