Additional safety warnings for jigsaws
and reciprocating saws
u
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting
accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed
metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.
u
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.
u
Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach
underneath the work piece any reason. 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.
u
Keep blades sharp. Dull or damaged blades may cause
the saw to swerve or stall under pressure. Always use the
appropriate type of saw blade for the workpiece material
and type of cut.
u
When cutting pipe or conduit, make sure that they are
free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
u
Do not touch the workpiece or the blade immediately
after operating the tool. They can become very hot.
u
Be aware of hidden hazards, before cutting into walls,
floors or ceilings, check for the location of wiring and
pipes.
u
The blade will continue to move after releasing the
switch. Always switch the tool off and wait for the saw
blade to come to a complete standstill before putting the
tool down.
Warning!
Contact with, or inhalation of dusts arising from
cutting applications may endanger the health of the operator
and
possible bystanders. Wear a dust mask specifically designed
for protection against dust and fumes and ensure that persons
within or entering the work area are also protected.
u
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
u
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those
recommended in this instruction manual may present a
risk of
personal injury and/or damage to property.
Safety of others
u
This tool is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless
they
have been given supervision or instruction concerning use
of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
u
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
Residual risks
Additional residual risks may arise when using the tool which
may not be included in the enclosed safety warnings. These
risks can arise from misuse, prolonged use etc.
Even with the application of the relevant safety regulations
and the implementation of safety devices, certain residual
risks can not be avoided. These include:
u
Injuries caused by touching any rotating/moving parts.
u
Injuries caused when changing any parts, blades or
accessories.
u
Injuries caused by prolonged use of a tool. When using
any tool for prolonged periods ensure you take regular
breaks.
u
Impairment of hearing.
u
Health hazards caused by breathing dust developed when
using your tool (example:- working with wood, especially
oak, beech and MDF.)
Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured in
accordance with a standard test method provided by EN 62841
and may be used for comparing one tool with another.
The declared vibration emission value may also be used in a
preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning!
The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
Labels on tool
The following pictograms along with the date code are shown
on the tool:
