How to use

Fit a compatible T-shank jigsaw blade securely in the tool’s blade holder according to the manufacturer’s blade-mounting instructions. Insert a charged Metabo 18 V battery until it clicks into place. Select an appropriate cutting speed for the material, mark the cutting line and position the base plate flat on the workpiece. Start the tool and guide it steadily along the marked line, allowing the blade to do the cutting without forcing. After use, remove the battery and blade before storage.

Recommendations

Use blades selected for the material and cut type to achieve optimal results; finer-tooth blades for smooth finishes and coarser blades for faster stock removal. Wear suitable eye and hearing protection and secure the workpiece before cutting. Because this is a tool-only kit, ensure you have a compatible Metabo 18 V battery and charger available prior to use.
