Inserting/changing the saw blade

When fitting or changing the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Blades are sharp and can become hot when used for prolonged periods of time.

While replacing the saw blade, ensure that the saw blade receptacle is free of material residue, e.g. wood or metal chips.

Only use saw blades with a 1/2" universal shank. The saw blade should not be longer than required for the intended cut.

Firmly push the saw blade (1) into the saw blade receptacle (4) until it audibly engages. The locking sleeve (3) consequently rotates by approx. 90° and locks the saw blade in place.

If the saw blade (1) is not locked, rotate the locking sleeve (3) by approx. 90° in the direction of the arrow until it is locked in the open position and a clicking sound is heard. Then push the saw blade into the saw blade receptacle (4) once again.

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

For particular jobs, the saw blade (1) can also be flipped 180° (teeth point upwards) and refitted.

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 locking sleeve (3) by approx. 90° in the direction of the arrow. The saw blade (1) is ejected.
