IMPORTANT SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
•
Stay alert,
watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating the Jig Saw.
Do not use the Jig Saw while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or
medication. A moment of inattention while operating the Jig Saw
may result in serious
personal injury.
•
Dress properly.
Do not wear loose clothing, dangling objects, or jewelry. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in moving parts. Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided.
•
Use safety apparel and equipment.
Use ANSI-approved safety goggles or safety glasses
with side shields, or when needed, a face shield. Use as dust mask in dusty work conditions.
This applies to all persons in the work area. Also use non-skid safety shoes, hardhat, gloves,
dust collection systems, and hearing protection when appropriate.

Keep proper footing and balance at all times.
•
Remove adjusting keys or wrenches
before connecting to the power supply or turning on
the tool. A wrench or key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in
personal injury.
