Operation
Blade replacement
Always unplug the tool before changing the blade. Open the transparent plastic guard, turn the quick-release chuck to the right, insert the blade (teeth facing forward) until it stops, and release the chuck. Ensure the blade is properly seated in the guide roller and the chuck is tight. Close the guard.
Laser adjustment
If the laser is misaligned, loosen the front or side screws, hold the saw against a straight edge, adjust the laser holder until the beam aligns with the edge, and retighten the screws.
Pendulum setting
Adjust the pendulum action using the regulator on the left side of the tool. Settings range from 0 to 3:
- 0: Steel, Aluminum, Sheet metal
- 1-2: Plastics
- 2-3: Wood, Chipboard
Cutting
For straight cuts, mark the line, place the front of the base on the workpiece, and move the saw forward at its own pace. Do not force the tool. For thin materials, place a wooden board underneath to reduce vibration.
Maintenance
Keep ventilation slots clean to prevent overheating. Clean the tool with a damp cloth and mild detergent; do not use aggressive chemicals or solvents. Regularly check carbon brushes and replace them in pairs if worn.

Practical help
Common problems
Excessive vibration or noise
Check if the blade is sharp and correctly installed. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped. Check carbon brushes.
Laser beam is not accurate
Loosen the front/side screws, align the laser with a straight edge, and retighten the screws.
Motor overheating
Run the tool at no-load for 2 minutes to cool down. Ensure ventilation slots are free of dust.
Before use
- Check that the power supply voltage matches the tool label.
- Ensure the saw blade is sharp and suitable for the material.
- Secure the workpiece using clamps or a vice.
- Check that the protective guard is in place.
- Wear eye and ear protection.
- Ensure the power cable is positioned away from the cutting area.
Specs in practice

- Speed regulator
- Allows adjustment of the stroke rate (0-2800 rpm) to suit different materials.
- Angle cutting
- The base can be tilted from 0° to 45° for bevel cuts.
