How to use

Before use, install a compatible 18 V battery (sold separately) and ensure the battery is charged. Fit an appropriate metal-cutting band saw blade and check blade tension and tracking according to the tool’s manual. Secure the workpiece, mark the cut line, and position the saw so the blade aligns with the mark. Start the tool and allow the blade to reach operating speed before engaging the cut. Apply steady, even feed pressure and avoid forcing the saw to prevent blade damage and uneven cutting. After completion, switch off the tool and wait until the blade stops before removing or adjusting the workpiece. Store the saw and blade in the supplied Systainer to protect components during transport.

Usage recommendations

Use blades rated for the material and section size to achieve clean cuts and prolong blade life. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including eye protection and gloves, and follow safe cutting practices. Keep the saw and blade clean from metal debris and inspect moving parts regularly. For extended work, use batteries with sufficient capacity to match job demands and allow battery changes in an organized manner inside the Systainer.
