 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 desig-
nated 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 termi-
nals together may cause burns or a fire.
 Under abusive conditions, liquid may be eject-
ed 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 irrita-
tion 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 Warnings for Jigsaws

 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfac-
es, when performing an operation where the
cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire may
make exposed metal parts of the power tool
"live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
 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
switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kick-
back when the cutting tool jams in the work-
piece.
 Pay attention that the base plate 9 rests se-
curely on the material while sawing. A jammed
saw blade can break or lead to kickback.
 When the cut is completed, switch off the
machine and then pull the saw blade out of the
cut only after it has come to a standstill. In this
manner you can avoid kickback and can place
down the machine securely.

 Use only undamaged saw blades that are in
perfect condition. Bent or dull saw blades can
break, negatively influence the cut, or lead to
kickback.
 Do not brake the saw blade to a stop by apply-
ing side pressure after switching off. The saw
blade can be damaged, break or cause kick-
back.
 Use appropriate detectors to determine if
utility lines are hidden in the work area or call
the local utility company for assistance.
Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and
electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes
property damage.
 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped
with clamping devices or in a vice is held more
secure than by hand.
 Always wait until the machine has come to a
complete stop before placing it down. The tool
insert can jam and lead to loss of control over the
power tool.
 Do not open the battery. Danger of short-
circuiting.
Protect the battery against heat, e. g.,
against continuous intense sunlight,
fire, water, and moisture. Danger of
explosion.
 In case of damage and improper use of the
battery, vapours may be emitted. Ventilate the
area and seek medical help in case of com-
plaints. The vapours can irritate the respiratory
system.
 Use the battery only in conjunction with your
Berner power tool. This measure alone protects
the battery against dangerous overload.
 The battery can be damaged by pointed ob-
jects such as nails or screwdrivers or by force
applied externally. An internal short circuit can
occur and the battery can burn, smoke, explode
or overheat.
