7.1

Changing tools

Selecting saw blade

Only use saw blades with a T-shank. The

saw blade should not be longer than that re-

quired for the intended cut. To ensure safe

guidance, during the cut the saw blade should

emerge at the bottom of the workpiece at every

point.



Only use cross-set saw blades when using the

angle and adapter table. We recommend Fes-

tool saw blade S 105/4 FSG.

Inserting saw blade

Always disconnect the battery pack from the

machine before every tool change!



If necessary, lift up the chip guard 

[4-1]

.



Slide the saw blade 

[4-4]

 into the opening 

[4-2]

as far as the stop with its teeth in the cutting di-

rection.



Turn the saw blade 

[4-4]

 clockwise approx. 30°.

Check that the saw blade is secure. A loose

saw blade can fall out and cause an injury. 



If the saw blade is very small, it is advis-

able to remove the saw base (see chapter 7.4)

before inserting the saw blade.

Adjust the saw blade guide after every saw blade

change:

The saw blade guide was designed to improve guid-

ance of the saw blade.



Remove the saw base (see chapter 7.4).



Tighten the screw 

[4-6]

 using the Allen key 

[4-

5]

 until the jaws are 

almost

 touching the saw

blade.

Ejecting saw blade



When ejecting the saw blade, hold the electric

power tool such that no persons or animals can

be injured.



Push the saw blade ejection 

[4-3]

 forwards as

far as the stop.



A tool change is only possible when the tool

holder is located in the upper position!

If the saw blade is stuck and cannot be changed:

Operate the jigsaw at high speed for 3 - 10 seconds.

Actuate the saw blade ejection 

[4-3]

again.

7.2

Using the chip guard

The chip guard 

[4-1]

 prevents chips flying away and

improves the efficiency of the chip extraction sys-

tem.



Using minimal pressure, push the chip guard

[4-1]

 downwards.

mum capacity.
