f.  Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly 
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are 
less likely to bind and are easier to control.
g.  Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. 
in accordance with these instructions, taking into 
account the working conditions and the work to 
be performed. Use of the power tool for operations 
different from those intended could result in a hazardous 
situation.
5.  Power tool use and care
a.  Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power 
tool for your application. The correct power tool will 
do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was 
designed.  
b.  Do not use the power tool if the switch does not 
turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be 
controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be 
repaired.  
c.  Disconnect the plug from the power source and/
or the battery pack from the power tool before 
making any adjustments, changing accessories, 
or storing power tools. Such preventive safety 
measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool 
accidentally.  
d.  Store idle power tools out of the reach of children 
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the 
power tool or these instructions to operate the 
power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands 
of untrained users.  
6. Service 
a.  Have your power tool serviced by a qualified 
repair person using only identical replacement 
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool 
is maintained.  
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
Safety Instructions for Jigsaw
a.  Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces, 
when performing an operation where the cutting 
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own 
cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may 
make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and 
could give the opertator an electric shock.
b.  Use clamps or another practical way to secure 
and support the work piece to a stable platform. 
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it 
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
c.  Keep hands away from cutting area.Never reach 
underneath the material for any reason. Hold front 
of saw by grasping the contoured gripping area. 
Do not insert fingers or thumb into the vicinity of the 
reciprocating blade and blade clamp. Do not stabilize 
the saw by gripping the shoe.
d.  Keep blades sharp. Dull blades may cause the saw to 
swerve or stall under pressure.
e.  When cutting pipe or conduit ensure that they are 
free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
f.  Allow the motor to come to a complete stop before 
withdrawing the blade from the kerf (the slot 
created by cutting). A moving blade may impact the 
workpiece causing a broken blade, workpiece damage 
or loss of control and possible personal injury.
g.  Do not touch the workpiece or the blade 
immediately after operating the tool. They can 
become very hot.
h.  Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. 
This will enable better control of the tool.
i.  Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy 
use. Dust and grit containing metal particles often 
accumulate on interior surfaces and could create an 
electric shock hazard.
j.  Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. 
Vibration caused by the operating action of this tool may 
cause permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. 
Use gloves to provide extra cushion, take frequent rest 
periods, and limit daily time of use.
k.  Avoid prolonged contact with dust from sawing 
activities. Wear protective clothing and wash 
exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust 
to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may 
promote absorption of harmful chemicals.
l.  Avoid cutting nails. Inspect workpiece for any nails 
and remove them before operation.
m.  Do not cut oversize workpiece.
n.  Make sure the blade is not contacting the 
workpiece before the switch in turned on.
o.  Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only 
when hand held.
p.  Some material contains chemicals witch may be 
toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin 
contact. Follow material supplier safety data.
q.  Always switch off and wait for the blade to come to 
complete stop before removing the blade from the 
workpiece. Use clamps or another practical way 
to secure and support the workpiece to a stable 
platform.  Holding the work by hand or against your 
body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
