[. . . ] Special Safety Instructions Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the electrical tool "live" and could give the operator an electric shock. Ensure that the spot where you wish to work is free of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e. Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful. [. . . ] Adjust to different angles using an angle gage. - Push the footplate (9) forward in the angles provided until it engages. Initial Operation Before plugging in the device, check to see that the rated mains voltage and mains frequency, as specified on the rating label, match your power supply. Remove the saw blade before fitting the antisplintering footplate insert (2). Turn the machine over so that the footplate faces upwards. Insert the anti-splintering footplate from the front, ensuring the following: • The smooth side of the footplate faces upwards. € The slot is facing to the rear (towards the mains cable). If you are working with the protective plate attached (1) (depending on fittings), fit the anti-splintering footplate insert in the protective plate. After stopping work, the jigsaw blade may still be hot. Use a saw blade that is suitable for the material being sawn. - Turn the clamping lever (18) forwards to the stop and hold in place. - Insert the saw blade (15) against the spring force until the stop. Ensure that the blade is correctly positioned in the groove of the saw blade support roller (16). The saw blade is now securely tightened). A Turn the button (7) to turn on (symbol ) or off. A Set the required pendulum motion using the adjustment lever (6). The best way to determine the ideal setting is through a practical trial. A Set the machine to maximum speed using the setting wheel (11). STE 140 Plus, STEB 140 Plus: Setting wheel setting "A" = automatic start-up ENGLISH en system: during sawing, the speed automatically increases to the maximum speed. The best way to determine the ideal setting is through a practical trial. switching on/off , continuous operation Fig. A Avoid inadvertent starts: always switch the tool off when the plug is removed from the mains socket or if there has been a power cut. [. . . ] Energy-rich, high-frequency interference can cause fluctuations in speed and eventually standstill. However, the fluctuations disappear as soon as the interference fades away. Emission values Using these values, you can estimate the emissions from this power tool and compare these with the values emitted by other power tools. The actual values may be higher or lower, depending on the particular application and the condition of the tool or power tool. [. . . ]
