When operating power tools, you should consider
basic safety precautions to avoid the risk of fire,
electric shock and personal injury.
Always read the safety, operating and maintenance
instructions before you start using your power tool.
Keep the instruction manual for future reference.
It is your responsibility to follow these preventive measures
in order to ensure your own safety. Always use the power
tool carefully and responsibly. Always take in consideration
that in using the jigsaw you accept full responsibility for any
accidents caused to third parties or their property during its
use.
Individuals who have not read the instruction manual and
are not familiarized with how to operate the jigsaw must not
use it. Before using the power tool for the first time, users
should be instructed by the seller or any other qualified
person on how to use the power tool. Users must ensure
they are instructed adequately and practically.
The instruction manual is considered an integral part of the
power tool and must always be made available alongside
the product.
Familiarize yourself with the control devices and use of the
power tool.
In particular, the user must know how to
quickly stop the power tool.
Stay alert and use common sense while working with a
power tool. A moment of inattention can result in serious
injury.
Do not use the power tool if you are not both physically and
mentally well. Do not use it while you are tired or under
the influence of medication, drugs or alcohol. If you have
a health problem, ask your doctor if it is safe for you to use
the power tool before doing so.
Never allow the power tool to be used by children,
individuals with limited physical, sensory or mental
abilities, individuals with lack of experience and knowledge
of the tool, or others unfamiliar with the use instructions.
The power tool may only be used as stated in this
instruction manual. Any other use, which may be
dangerous and may cause injury to the user or damage to
the jigsaw, is not permitted.
Do not overload the power tool and use proper tools for
each type of work. The use of the power tool for purposes
other than those intended and improper use of accessories
may result in hazardous situations.
For safety reasons, any alteration to the power tool is
prohibited by manufacturer, apart from the blade
installation. The warranty on your jigsaw will be voided if
you alter it in any way.
You may get information about the authorized blades from
your official VITO dealer.
The power tool has double insulation, which means
that all external metal parts are insulated from the
electrical components. Therefore, in accordance with EN
standard, no grounding is required. However, double
insulation does not replace normal safety precautions,
which must be observed when using the power tool.
Do not expose the power tool to rain or use it in wet or moist
environments.
The presence of water in a power tool
increases the risk of damage and electric shock to the user.
Only hold the power tool by its insulated surfaces, which
prevent electric shock if the power tool comes into contact
with hidden wires or power cord during its use.
Do not use power tools in explosive environments,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases
or dust. Power tools create sparks that can ignite liquids,
gases, or dust.
