tool is maintained.

Jigsaw safety warnings

During operation provide eye protection to
prevent eyes from exposure to flying parti-
cles. Wear goggles.
Wear hearing protection during continuous
operation. Intense noise loading during opera-
tion may damage the operator's hearing.
Take protective measures against inhala-
tion of dust. Some materials can contain
toxic ingredients. Wear a dust mask and work
with dust/chip extraction.
▪ Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces
only, when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or
its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a "live"
wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric shock.
▪ Do not process materials containing asbestos. Asbes-
tos is considered carcinogenic.
▪ Use of protective gloves is recommended.
WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a
power source ensure that the voltage supply is the
same as the one specified on the nameplate of the
tool.
▪ A power source with a voltage greater than that speci-
fied for the tool can result in serious injury to the user,
as well as damage to the tool.
▪ If in doubt, do not plug in the tool.
▪ Using a power source with a voltage less than the
nameplate rating is harmful to the motor.
▪ Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential
overheating.
▪ When an extension cable is required, you must en-
sure that it has the right ampere rating for your power
tool and it is in safe electrical condition.
WARNING: Always switch off and unplug the
power tool prior to any adjustment, servicing or main-
tenance or in case of mains drop-out.
▪ Use clamps or a vice to secure your work whenever
possible.
▪ While operating the machine, always hold it firmly
with both hands and provide for a secure stance. The
power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
▪ Do not operate the jigsaw without the fence set prop-
erly in its place.
▪ Keep hands away from the sawing range. Do not
reach under the workpiece. Contact with the saw
blade can lead to injuries.
▪ Apply the machine to the workpiece only when
Original instructions
switched on.
▪ When the cut is completed, switch the machine off
and then pull the saw blade out of the cut only after it
has come to a standstill.
▪ Take care that the base plate rests securely on the
material while sawing.
▪ Do not overload the machine: operate with moderate
pressure. Overloading occurs when you apply exces-
sive pressure, resulting in decrease of motor speed,
which may cause inefficient operation and possible
fault of the motor.
▪ Prior to sawing wood check the material for the pres-
ence of screws or nails and remove them.
▪ Always keep the cord away from the working area of
the power tool.
▪ Never use the machine with a damaged cable. Do
not touch the damaged cable and pull the mains plug
when the cable is damaged while operating. Dam-
aged cables increase the risk of electric shock.
▪ Keep work area clean. Blends of materials are par-
ticularly dangerous. Dust from light alloys can burn or
explode.
▪ Always wait until the machine has come to a complete
stop before placing it down.
▪ The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual
will be considered a case of misuse. The user and not
the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or in-
jury resulting from such cases of misuse.
▪ To use this tool properly, you must observe the safety
regulations, the assembly instructions and the operat-
ing instructions found in this Manual. All persons who
use and service the machine have to be acquainted
with this Manual and must be informed about its po-
tential hazards. Children and frail people must not use
this tool. Children should be supervised at all times if

is also imperative that you observe the accident pre-
vention regulations in force in your area. The same

made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from
such changes.
