Original Instructions
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.
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condi-
tion that may affect the power tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
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 intended could
result in a hazardous situation.
5) Service

This will ensure that
the safety of the power tool is maintained.
EXTRA SAFETY REGULATIONS CONCERNING JIG SAW
• Hold power tool 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 operator an electric shock.
• IF YOU ARE NOT thoroughly familiar with the operation of a jig saw, obtain advice from a qualified person.
• The jig saw is double insulated. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
• Wear dust mask.
• Avoid cutting nails when operate with the wood blade. Inspect the workpiece carefully and remove all nails and staples
before operation.
• Make sure the blade always extends beyond the shoe and workpiece throughout the stroke. Blades may shatter if they
strike the workpiece or shoe.
• Do not cut oversized workpiece.
• Check for proper clearance beyond the workpiece before cutting so the blade will not strike the floor, workbench, etc.
• Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.
• Keep the saw blades clean and sharp.
• Use only correct blades.
Always use blades recommended for the type of workpiece.
• Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.
• Always release the switch to OFF and wait for the tool to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from
the workpiece.
• Keep the handle dry, clean, and free from oil and grease. Always use a clean cloth when cleaning. Do not use solvents,
brake fluids, gasoline or other petroleum products to clean the tool, they may damage plastic parts.
• Do not operate this tool in a gaseous or explosive atmosphere or near explosive materials.
• Never force the tool.
Apply firm pressure against the saw pivot shoe for the sawing operation--too little or too much pressure
could cause jumping, vibration and break the blade.
• Never operate the saw without the pivot shoe in position. The spindle may strike against the workpiece and damage the
reciprocating mechanism.
• Hold the tool firmly.
• Do not touch the blade or the workpiece immediately after the sawing operation. It may be extremely hot and could burn your
skin.
