
Be careful when working on walls. Damage to power supply lines, gas or water pipes can lead to
dangerous situations. Use appropriate detectors to establish whether there are concealed wires or pipes
in the working area.

Secure the work piece. The work piece is only secure if it is held by work-holding devices or in a vice.

Caution: saw blades can get very hot.

Saw blades must be kept sharp and in good condition. Replace partially fractured and broken saw blades
immediately.

Work calmly and evenly with the jig saw. You will thus avoid accidents and the saw blades and the jig saw
will last longer.

Do not use for cutting pipes or cables.

Do not use cracked, blunt or damaged blades.

Do not start the saw if no blade is fitted.

Check there are no obstructions in/on the surface under the item to be cut.

Do not attempt to cut items thicker than the maximum cutting depth of the blade, or where there is
insufficient space for the blade under the item.
 The saw’s metal parts may become conductive if the saw comes into contact with a live wire. Therefore
only hold the saw by its insulated handle.

Check that the ventilation slots are not blocked.

Never remove dust, obstructions or the like from the work area while the blade is operating.

Never stop the saw blade by applying pressure to the saw or to the side of the blade.

Do not lift the saw from the item being cut if the blade is still running.

Never place the saw on a table or workbench if it has not stopped completely.

The saw blade will continue to run a short time after the machine has been switched off.

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.
