• Keep your hands away from the underside of the workpiece
• Ensure that an appropriate blade is used for the material being cut
• Ensure all supports and power cables are completely clear of the cutting
path
• Where guards exist, ensure they are in place
• Do not put pressure on the tool. Allow the blade to cut at its own pace.
This will produce better results and maximise the service life of the tool
• Before cutting, check that there is sufficient clearance for the blade
under the workpiece
• Always keep the shoe pressed against the workpiece
• Do not attempt to cut material thicker than detailed in the specifications
section of this manual
• Do not force the blade to bend or twist whilst cutting
• If a cut does not extend to the edge of the workpiece, allow the blade to
come to a complete stop before lifting it from the workpiece
• Do not use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste close by the
blade
• Do not reach over the blade to remove waste or off-cuts
• Blades heat up during use. Allow to cool completely before handling
• If a blade jams, disconnect the machine from the power supply prior to
releasing the blade
• Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings, tighten where
necessary
Cutting Tool Safety
Use the correct cutting tool
• Ensure the cutting tool is suitable for the job. Do not assume a tool is
suitable without checking the product literature before use
Protect your eyes
• Always wear appropriate eye protection when using cutting tools
• Spectacles are not designed to offer any protection when using this
product; normal lenses are not impact resistant and could shatter
Protect your hearing
• Always wear suitable hearing protection when tool noise exceeds 85dB
Protect your breathing
• Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust masks
Be aware of others around you
• It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in the
vicinity of the work area are not exposed to dangerous noise or dust and
are also provided with suitable protective equipment
Hidden objects
• Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects
before cutting
• Do not attempt to cut material that contains embedded objects unless
you know that the cutting tool fitted to your machine is suitable for the
job
• Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may conceal fuel
lines, and long grass may conceal stones and glass. Always check the
work area thoroughly before proceeding
Beware of projected waste
• In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the
cutting tool. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that other people in
the work area are protected from the possibility of projected waste
Fitting cutting tools
• Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check that
wrenches / adjusters are removed prior to use
• Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
• Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
Beware of heat
• Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use. Do not attempt to
change tools until they have been allowed to cool completely
Control dust / swarf
• Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard, and
some metal swarf is explosive
• Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal. Sparks from metal
cutting are a common cause of wood dust fires
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working
environment
Included accessories (not shown):
• Hex key, 1 x wood blade, spare carbon brushes
Intended Use
Single-speed jigsaw for light duty cutting tasks of wood, plastic and thin
sheet metal (when using appropriate blades).
Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Fully familiarise yourself with all
its features and functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition. If
any parts are missing or damaged, have such parts replaced before
attempting to use this tool
Before Use
Fitting a blade
• ALWAYS check that a suitable blade is selected for the job that is to be
done (refer to the blade manufacturers information before use)
• Only fit blades that are in perfect condition. Blunt, bent and cracked
blades should be discarded
1. Loosen both Blade Locking Screws (2), using the hex key provided
2. Insert a suitable blade
3. Fasten the Blade Locking Screws until securely tightened
Note:
ALWAYS apply a lubricant between the blade and the roller, if you plan
on cutting metal or other hard materials.
Connecting the dust extraction system
• This jigsaw is equipped with a Dust Extraction Port (6). Connecting the
tool to a vacuum cleaner or workshop dust extraction system is the
preferred method of dust extraction
• If vacuum dust extraction is unavailable, you must fit a generic dust bag
