Fitting the splinterguard

The splinterguard allows cuts with splinter-free
edges, even on the exit side of the sawblade.
- With the tool switched off and unplugged, fi t the
splinterguard [6.1] on the guide [6.2] up to the
sawblade.
- Switch the jigsaw on and with the tool running,
use the tool to push the splinterguard in and cut
on a level surface until the splinterguard is fl ush
with the front edge of the base runner.
Note: The splinterguard must lie close to the
sawblade on both sides to ensure reliable opera-

every time the sawblade is changed to ensure
splinter-free cuts.
