The vibration level and noise emission value is given in these instructions have been measured in accordance with a standardized measuring procedure and may be used to compare power tools. They may also be used for a preliminary estimation of vibration and noise emissions.The stated vibration level and noise emission value represent the main applications of the power tool. However, if the power tool is used for other applications, with different application tools or is poorly maintained, the vibration level and noise emission value may differ. This may significantly increase the vibration and noise emissions over the total working period.To estimate vibration and noise emissions accurately, the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually being used should also be taken into account.This may significantly reduce vibration and noise emissions over the total working period.Implement additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration, such as servicing the power tool and application tools,  keeping their hands warm, and organizing workflows correctly.

Assembly

♦ Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is a risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.

Battery Charging♦ Use only the chargers listed in the technical data. Only these chargers are matched to the lithium-ion battery of your power tool.Note: The battery is supplied partially charged. To ensure full battery capacity, fully charge the battery in the charger before using your power tool for the first time. The lithium-ion battery can be charged at any time without reducing its service life. Interrupting the charging process does not damage the battery.The lithium-ion battery is protected against deep discharge by the “Electronic Cell Protection (ECP)”. When the battery is discharged, the power tool is switched off by means of a protective circuit: The application tool no longer rotates.♦Do not continue to press the On/Off switch after the power tool has automatically switched off. The battery can be damaged.The battery (3) is equipped with two locking levels to prevent the battery from falling out if the battery release button(4) is pressed unintentionally.

Inserting/changing the saw blade♦ When fitting or changing the saw blade, wear protective gloves. Blades are sharp and can become hot when used for prolonged periods of time.Selecting the saw blade You will find an overview of recommended saw blades at the end of these operating instructions. Only use saw blades with a single lug shank (T shank). The saw blade should not be longer than required for the intended cut.Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight curves.Inserting the saw blade (see figure A)♦ Clean the shaft on the saw blade before inserting it.A dirty shaft cannot be securely fixed in place.Push the saw blade (10), with the teeth in the cutting direction, into the saw blade receptacle (17) until it clicks into place. The SDS lever (11)  automatically springs back and the saw blade is locked in place. Do not push the lever (11) back by hand as you could damage the power tool.Make sure when inserting the saw blade that the back of the saw blade is in the groove on the guide roller (9).♦ Check that the saw blade is seated securely. A loose saw blade can fall out and lead to injuries.Ejecting the saw blade (see figure B)♦ When ejecting the saw blade, hold the power tool in such a manner that no persons or animals can be injured by the ejected saw blade.Turn the SDS lever (11) as far as it will go in the direction of the shock protection guard (13). The saw blade is released and ejected.Glide shoe (see figure C)The plastic guide plate (6) of the base plate (7) reduces scratching on sensitive surfaces. Use the steel glide shoe (18) when machining metal.Fit the steel glide shoe (18) by sliding it onto the base plate (7) from the front.The plastic guide plate (6) should be replaced if it is worn.Anti-splinter guard (see figure D)The anti-splinter guard (19) (accessory) can prevent splintering of the surface while sawing wood. The anti-splinter guard can only be used with certain saw blade types and only at a cutting angle of 0°. When sawing with the anti-splinter guard, the base plate (7) must not be moved to the rear for sewing close to the edges.Slide the anti-splinter guard (19) into the base plate (7) from the front.Dust/Chip ExtractionThe dust from materials such as lead paint, some types of wood, minerals, and metal can be harmful to human health. Touching or breathing in this dust can trigger allergic reactions and/or cause respiratory illnesses in the user or in people in the near vicinity. Certain dust, such as oak or beech dust, are classified as carcinogenic, especially in conjunction with wood treatment additives (chromate, wood preservative). Materials containing asbestos may only be machined by specialists.– Use a dust extraction system that is suitable for the material wherever possible.– Provide good ventilation at the workplace.– It is advisable to wear a P2 filter class breathing mask.The regulations on the material being machined that apply in the country of use must be observed.♦ Avoid dust accumulation at the workplace. Dust can easily ignite.Fit the extraction outlet (20) in the recesses of the base plate (7).Connect a dust extraction hose (21) (accessory) to the extraction outlet (20). Connect the dust extraction hose (21) to a dust extractor (accessory).You will find an overview of connecting to various dust extractors at the end of these operating instructions.For optimum dust extraction, where possible use the anti-splinter guard (19).The dust extractor must be suitable for the material being worked.When extracting dry dust that is especially detrimental to health or carcinogenic, use a special dust extractor.

Operation

Operating modes♦ Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is a risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.Pendulum action settingsThe pendulum action can be adjusted using four different settings, allowing the cutting speed, cutting capacity and the cut itself to be optimally adapted to the material that you want to cut.You can also adjust the pendulum action during operation using the adjusting lever (8).

The optimum pendulum level for each application can be determined by a practical test. Note the following recommendations:– Select a lower pendulum level or switch off the pendulum action completely if you wish to produce a finer or cleaner cutting edge.– Switch off the pendulum action when machining thin materials (e.g. sheets).– Work on hard materials (e.g. steel) with low pendulum action.– You can work on soft materials and saw wood in the direction of the grain using maximum pendulum action.Setting the miter/bevel angle (see figure G) (GST 18 V‑LI B)The base plate (7) can be swiveled to the right or left to make miter cuts up to 45°.The extraction outlet (20) and anti-splinter guard (19) cannot be used while miter/bevel cuts are being made.– Remove the extraction outlet (20) and the anti-splinter guard (19).– Loosen the screw (22) with the hex key (5) and slide the base plate (7) all the way towards the battery (3).– The base plate has lock-in points at 0° and 45° on the left and right so that precise miter/bevel angles can be set.Swivel the base plate (7) to the desired position according to the scale (23). Another miter/bevel angle can be adjusted using a protractor.– Then push the base plate (7) towards the saw blade (10) as far as it will go.– Retighten the screw (22).Moving the base plate (see figure G) (GST 18 V‑LI B)You can move the base plate (7) back for sawing close to the edges.Loosen the screw of the base plate (22) with the hex key (5) and slide the base plate (7) all the way towards the battery (3).Retighten the screw (22).Sawing with an offset base plate (7) is only possible with a miter angle of 0°. In all other cases, the anti-splinter guard (19) may not be used.Starting OperationInserting the batteryNote: The use of batteries unsuitable for your power tool can lead to malfunctions or damage to the power tool.Slide the charged battery (3) from below into the foot of the power tool. Press the battery fully into the base until the battery is securely locked.Switching on the LED work light (GST 18 V‑LI S) To switch the work light (12) on or off, press the work light button (15).♦ Do not look directly into the work light; it can blind you.Switching On and Off (GST 18 V‑LI S)♦Make sure that you are able to press the On/Off switch without releasing the handle.To switch on the power tool, slide the on/off switch (2) forwards so that “I” appears on the switch.To switch off the power tool, slide the on/off switch (2) backward so that “0” appears on the switch.Switching On and Off (GST 18 V‑LI B)To switch on the power tool, press the lock-off button (1) next to the symbol first, thereby deactivating it. Then press the on/off switch (2) and keep it pressed.The work light lights up when the on/off switch (2) is lightly or fully pressed allowing the work area to be illuminated in poor lighting conditions.♦ Do not look directly into the work light; it can blind you. To switch off the power tool, release the on/off switch (2).Activate the lock-off button (1) by pressing the lock-off button next to the symbol.Note: For safety reasons, the on/off switch (2) cannot be locked; it must remain pressed during the entire operation.Preselecting the stroke rate  (GST 18 V‑LI S) You can also preselect the stroke rate and change it during operation using the stroke rate preselection thumbwheel (16).The required stroke rate is dependent on the material and the work conditions and can be determined using practice tests.It is recommended that you reduce the stroke rate when placing the saw blade on the workpiece and when sawing plastic and aluminum.During prolonged periods of use at a low stroke rate, the power tool may heat up significantly. Remove the saw blade and let the power tool run at the maximum stroke rate for around three minutes to cool down.Controlling the stroke rate (GST 18 V‑LI B)You can variably adjust the stroke rate of the power tool when it is on by pressing in the on/off switch (2) to varying extents.Applying light pressure to the on/off switch (2) results in a low stroke rate. Applying increasing pressure to the switch increases the stroke rate.The required stroke rate is dependent on the material and the work conditions and can be determined using practice tests.It is recommended that you reduce the stroke rate when placing the saw blade on the workpiece and when sawing plastic and aluminum.During prolonged periods of use at a low stroke rate, the power tool may heat up significantly. Remove the saw blade and let the power tool run at the maximum stroke rate for around three minutes to cool down.Temperature-dependent overload protectionIn normal conditions of use, the power tool cannot be overloaded. If the power tool is overloaded or not kept within the permitted battery temperature range, the speed is reduced or the power tool switches off. At reduced speed, the power tool will run again at full speed once the permitted battery temperature is reached or the load is reduced. If it automatically shuts down, switches the power tool off, allows the battery to cool down, then switches the power tool back on.Working Advice♦ Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is a risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.♦ Switch the power tool off immediately if the saw blade becomes blocked.♦ Always use sturdy support when working on small or thin workpieces.Before sawing into the wood, chipboard, building materials, etc., check for and remove any foreign objects such as nails, screws, etc.Plunge cutting (see figure H) ♦ Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft materials, such as wood, gypsum board, etc.For plunge cutting, use only short saw blades. Plunge cutting is possible only with a miter angle of 0°.Place the power tool so that the front edge of the base plate (7) rests on the workpiece, without the saw blade (10) touching the workpiece, and switch it on. On power tools with stroke rate control, select the maximum stroke rate.Press the power tool firmly against the workpiece and allow the saw blade to plunge slowly into the workpiece. As soon as the base plate (7) rests fully on the workpiece, continue sawing along the required cutting line.Coolant/lubricantAs the material heats up along the cutting line when cutting metal, you should apply coolant or lubricant.Recommendations for Optimal Handling of the BatteryProtect the battery against moisture and water.Only store the battery within a temperature range of −20 to 50 °C. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer, for example.Occasionally clean the ventilation slots on the battery using a soft brush that is clean and dry.A significantly reduced operating time after charging indicates that the battery has deteriorated and must be replaced.Follow the instructions on correct disposal.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Cleaning♦ Remove the battery from the power tool before carrying out work on the power tool (e.g. maintenance, changing tool, etc.). The battery should also be removed for transport and storage. There is risk of injury from unintentionally pressing the on/off switch.♦ To ensure safe and efficient operation, always keep the power tool and the ventilation slots clean. Clean the saw blade receptacle regularly. For this, remove the saw blade from the power tool and lightly tap out the power tool on a level surface.If the power tool becomes very dirty, this can lead to serious faults. For this reason, do not cut materials that generate large quantities of dust from below or overhead.If the dust outlet becomes blocked, switch off the power tool, disconnect the dust extraction system and remove the dust and chips.Apply a drop of oil to the guide roller (9) from time to time.Check the guide roller (9) regularly.
