Disconnect the plug from the power source
and/or the battery pack from the power tool
before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools.
Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of
starting the power tool accidentally.
Store idle power tools out of the reach of
children and do not allow persons unfamiliar
with the power tool or these instructions to
operate the power tool.
Power tools are
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts and any other condition that may
affect the power tools operation. If damaged,
have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting
edges are less likely to bind and are easier to
control.
Use the power tool, accessories and tool
bits etc. in accordance with these instructions,
taking into account the working conditions
and the work to be performed.
Use of the
power tool for operations different from those
intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Battery tool use and care
Recharge only with the charger specified
by the manufacturer.
A charger that is
suitable for one type of battery pack may
create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack.
Use power tools only with specifically
designated battery packs.
Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and
fire.
When battery pack is not in use, keep it
away from other metal objects like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other
small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a fire.
Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery, avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical
replacement parts.
This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
Safety Rules for Cordless Jigsaws
Hold power tools by insulated gripping
surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden
wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will make
exposed metal parts of the tool "live" and
shock the operator.
Use clamps or other practical way to
secure and support the workpiece to a
stable platform.
Holding the work by hand
or against your body is unstable and may
lead to loss of control.
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 this worksite.
Disconnect battery pack from tool or
place the switch in the locked or off
position before making any assembly,
adjustments or changing accessories.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Never leave the trigger locked "ON".
Before inserting the battery pack, check
that the trigger lock is "OFF".
Accidental
start-ups could cause injury.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do
not reach under the material being cut.
The proximity of the blade to your hand is
hidden from your sight.
Keep hands from between the gear
housing and saw blade holder.
The
reciprocating blade holder can pinch your
fingers.
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Bent
blade can break easily or cause kickback.
