The STEB 140 is designed primarily for cutting wood and wooden composites. Use a wood-cutting blade suitable for curves and delicate cuts. If you need to cut other materials, choose blades rated for those materials (e.g., laminates, soft metals) and adjust the speed accordingly to achieve clean results.

First unplug the tool. Open the blade clamp, insert the blade with the teeth pointing forward, and securely tighten the clamp. Select the desired speed using the variable speed control, then guide the saw along the cut line with steady, even pressure. Ensure the base plate is flat on the workpiece and that you use the dust extraction for a cleaner cut.

The integrated dust extraction helps keep the work area cleaner by drawing dust and small debris away from the blade and work surface. This improves visibility, reduces clogging, and can extend blade life. For best results, connect the jigsaw to a compatible dust extractor or shop vac.

Always wear eye protection and hearing protection. Use a dust mask or respirator when cutting dusty materials, and maintain a firm, balanced stance. Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped, keep hands away from the blade, and avoid forcing the tool—let the blade do the work at the chosen speed.
