ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS
•
Do not use blunt or damaged blades. Bent

avoid contact with the skin and use proper
protective gloves when touching the blade
or accessory.
Accessories may become hot after
prolonged use.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY
RULES FOR YOUR
JIGSAW
•
Securely support the work piece. Use
clamps or a vice to grip the work piece
firmly.
This is much safer than holding it in
your hand.
•
Always switch on the electric power tool
before placing it against the work piece.
There is a risk of kickback.
•
Hold the power tool by the insulated
gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the insert tool may contact
hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with
a "live" wire can make metal parts of the
tool "live" and shock the operator. Do not
drill, fasten or break into existing walls or
other blind areas where
electrical wiring
may exist. If this situation is unavoidable,
disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers
feeding the worksite.
•
Never leave the trigger locked "ON".
Before plugging the tool in, check that the
trigger lock is "OFF". Accidental start-ups
can cause injury.
•
Keep your hands away from the area of
the saw blade. Do not grip the underside
of the work piece. Contact with the saw
blade may result in the risk of injury.
•
Make sure that the base plate ( 9) lies on
the work piece when sawing and is set to
the desired angle.
•
If a dangerous situation arises, immediately
remove the plug from the mains socket.
•
Always work with the mains lead leading
away from the rear of the device.
This will ensure that the safety of the
power tool is maintained.
CAUTION!
Noxious fumes!
Working with harmful /
noxious dusts represents a risk to the health of
the person operating the device and to anyone
near the work area. Do not saw materials
containing asbestos. Asbestos is a known
carcinogen.
Wear protective glasses and a dust
mask!
Do not saw materials containing substances
harmful to health.
• When sawing wood and in particular when
working on materials that give rise to dusts
that are hazardous to health, the device
must be connected to a suitable dust
extraction device.
• Make sure you have adequate ventilation.
• Do not work on moistened materials or
damp surfaces.
• Switch off the electrical power tool after
completing each stage of work but do not
withdraw the saw blade from the cut until
after it has come to a standstill.
• Use only undamaged, defect-free saw
blades. Distorted or blunt saw blades can
break or cause a kickback.
• Always keep the device clean, dry and free
of oil or grease.
