Only send the battery pack if the housing is intact 

and no fluid is leaking. Remove the battery pack 

from the machine for sending. Prevent the contacts 

from short-circuiting (e.g. by protecting them with 

adhesive tape).

Reducing dust exposure:

WARNING

 - Some dust created by power 

sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other 

construction activities contains chemicals known to 

cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive 

harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

- Lead from lead-based paints,

- Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and 

other masonry products, and

- Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated 

lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending 

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce 

your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well 

ventilated area, and work with approved safety 

equipment, such as those dust masks that are 

specially designed to filter out microscopic 

particles.
This also applies to dust from other materials such 

as some timber types (like oak or beech dust), 

metals, asbestos. Other known diseases are e.g. 

allergic reactions, respiratory diseases. Do not let 

dust enter the body.
Observe the relevant guidelines and national 

regulations for your material, staff, application and 

place of application (e.g. occupational health and 

safety regulations, disposal).
Collect the particles generated at the source, avoid 

deposits in the surrounding area. 
Use suitable accessories for special work. In this 

way, fewer particles enter the environment in an 

uncontrolled manner.
Use a suitable extraction unit.
Reduce dust exposure with the following measures:

- do not direct the escaping particles and the 

exhaust air stream at yourself or nearby persons 

or on dust deposits,

- use an extraction unit and/or air purifiers,

- ensure good ventilation of the workplace and keep 

clean using a vacuum cleaner. Sweeping or 

blowing stirs up dust.

- Vacuum or wash the protective clothing. Do not 

blow, beat or brush.

Remove the battery pack from the machine 

before any adjustment or maintenance is 

carried out. Make sure that the tool is switched off 

before fitting the battery pack.

6.1 Battery pack

Charge the battery pack (13) before use.
Recharge the battery pack if performance dimin-

ishes.
Instructions on charging the battery pack can be 

found in the operating instructions of the Metabo 

charger.

Li-Ion battery packs “Li-Power, LiHD“

 have a 

capacity and signal indicator (20):

- Press the button (21); the LEDs indicate the 

charge level.

- The battery pack is almost flat and must be 

recharged if one LED is flashing.

Removal:

Press the battery pack release (14) button and pull 

the battery pack (13) upwards.

Inserting:

Slide in the battery pack (13) until it engages.

6.2 Setting cutting depth

Loosen the locking lever (19) for adjustment. Read 

the depth of cut that has been set from the scale 

(16). Tighten the locking screw again.
It is advisable to set the depth of cut in such a way 

that no more than half of each tooth on the saw 

blade juts out under the workpiece. See illustration 

on page 3.

6.3 Slanting saw blade for diagonal cuts

Loosen the locking screws (1). Tilt the motor part 

against the guide plate (15). Read the angle which 

has been set from the scale (2). Tighten the locking 

screws again.
