SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR JIG SAWS
Important! Use of any accessories or attachments other than those
supplied or recommended in these operating instructions can mean the risk
of injury.
▪
When using jig saws ear protectors and a face mask should be worn. Exposure to noise
can cause damage to hearing.
▪
Do not use the jig saw to cut asbestos or materials containing asbestos.
▪
Do not leave power tools running unattended. Always switch off and do not put down or
leave until it has stopped completely.
▪
Long hair must be covered. Do not work in loose fitting clothing.
▪
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.
▪
Always check that the mains voltage corresponds to the voltage on the device's rating
plate.
▪
Secure the work piece. The work piece is only secure if it is held by work-holding devices
or in a vice.
▪
Use of extension cables. Only use extension cables which are designed for the machine's
power. The minimum conductor cross section must be 1.5 mm². When using cable reels
the cable must always be completely unrolled.
▪
Always remove the mains plug before replacing saw blades.
▪
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.
