c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position
before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or
carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents
d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result
in personal injury
e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This
enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations
f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in moving parts
g) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use
of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards
Power Tool Use & Care
a) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your
application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the
rate for which it was designed
b) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any
power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must
be repaired
c) 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
d) 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
e) Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving
parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool's operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before
use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools
f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control
g) 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
Service
a) 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
WARNING: Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power
point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that
specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than
that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, and 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.
800W Reciprocating Saw
Reciprocating Saw Safety
• Ensure that lighting is adequate
• Keep the area free of tripping hazards
• Wear appropriate safety equipment including eye protection and gloves to
protect against vibration
• Never saw near combustible liquids or gases
• Check for hidden wiring and pipes before sawing
• Use recommended blades only
• Blades must be sharp and not cracked or distorted
• Before starting work, inspect the workpiece and remove all embedded objects
such as nails, screws etc
• Support and secure the workpiece correctly
• When cutting cylindrical wood, use clamps that prevent the workpiece from
turning
• Use the insulated handles when operating power tools. This protects the
operator if the tool accidentally cuts through hidden electrical wiring, causing
the tool to become 'live'
• Always stand to one side when operating the saw
• Do not use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste close to the blade
• Never reach over the blade to remove waste or off-cuts
• Do not attempt to free a jammed blade until the machine has been
disconnected from the power
• Do not attempt to slow or stop a blade with any object. Let the blade come to
rest naturally
• If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete the process and switch
off before looking up
• Periodically check the tool for loose nuts, bolts and tighten as necessary
