GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY WARNINGS



WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions may result in electric shock, fire and/or
seriousinjury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE

REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains­operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless)
powertool.

1) Work Area Safety

a ) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or

dark areas inviteaccidents.

b ) Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of
flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools

create sparks which may ignite the dust orfumes.

c ) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you
to losecontrol.

2) Electrical Safety

a ) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never

modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will

reduce risk of electricshock.

b ) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded

surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric

shock if your body is earthed orgrounded.

c ) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electricshock.

d ) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for

carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or
moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase

the risk of electricshock.

e ) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an

extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of
a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of
electricshock.

f ) If operating a power tool in a damp location

is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit
interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI

reduces the risk of electricshock.

3) Personal Safety

a ) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use

common sense when operating a power tool. Do
not use a power tool while you are tired or under
the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools
may result in serious personalinjury.

b ) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear

eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust
mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce
personalinjuries.

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 energizing 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

jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry 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.

4) Power Tool Use and 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.

ENGLISH

3

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.

5) Battery Tool Use and Care

a ) 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.

b ) Use power tools only with specifically

designated battery packs. Use of any other battery
packs may create a risk of injury andfire.

c ) 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 terminals together

may cause burns or afire.

d ) Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected

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 irritation
orburns.

6) 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.

Jig Saw Safety Warnings

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, 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.

• Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss ofcontrol.

• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach
underneath the material for any reason. Hold front of saw
by grasping the contoured gripping area. Do not insert
fingers or thumb into the vicinity of the reciprocating
blade and blade clamp. Do not stabilize the saw by
gripping theshoe.

• Keep blades sharp. Dull blades may cause the saw to
swerve or stall underpressure.

• Use extra caution when cutting overhead and pay
particular attention to overhead wires which may be
hidden from view. Anticipate the path of falling branches
and debris ahead of time.

• When cutting pipe or conduit ensure that they are free
from water, electrical wiring,etc.



WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some
examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paints,

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated
lumber (CCA).

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how
often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are
specially designed to filter out microscopicparticles.

• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed
areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of

harmfulchemicals.

Important Charging Notes

1. Longest life and best performance can be obtained if
the battery pack is charged when the air temperature is
between 65°F – 75°F (18° – 24°C). DO NOT charge the
battery pack in an air temperature below 40°F (4.5°C),
or above 104°F (40°C). This is important and will
prevent serious damage to the battery pack.

2. If the battery pack does not charge properly:

a. Check operation of receptacle by plugging in a lamp

or other appliance;

b. Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light

switch which turns power off when you turn out the
lights;

c. Move the power adapter and battery pack to a

location where the surrounding air temperature is
approximately 65°F – 75°F (18° – 24°C);

d. If charging problems persist, take the tool, battery

pack and power adapter to your local service center.

3. The battery pack should be recharged when it fails to
produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily
done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE to use under these
conditions. Follow the charging procedure. You may
also charge a partially used pack whenever you desire
with no adverse effect on the battery pack.

Transportation



WARNING: Fire hazard. Do not store or carry the
battery pack so that metal objects can contact
exposed battery terminals. For example, do

not place the battery pack in aprons, pockets, tool
boxes, product kit boxes, drawers, etc., with loose
nails, screws, keys, etc. Transporting batteries

can possibly cause fires if the battery terminals
inadvertently come in contact with conductive
materials such as keys, coins, hand tools and the
like. The US Department of Transportation Hazardous

Material Regulations (HMR) actually prohibit
transporting batteries in commerce or on airplanes in

General

Use a high speed for wood, a medium speed for
aluminum and PVC and a low speed for metals other then
aluminum Specific materials also require specialty blades
(soldseparately).

Sawing laminates

As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may
occur on the surface closest to the shoeplate.

• Use a fine-tooth sawblade.

• Saw from the back surface of theworkpiece.

• To minimize splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood
or hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw
through thissandwich.

Sawing metal

• Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than
sawingwood.

• Use a saw blade suitable for sawingmetal.

• When cutting thin metal, clamp a piece of scrap wood
to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through
thissandwich.

• Spread a film of oil along the intended line ofcut.

Pocket Cutting (Fig. K)

A pocket cut is an easy method of making an inside cut. The
saw can be inserted directly into a panel or board without
first drilling a lead or pilot hole. In pocket cutting, measure
the surface to be cut and mark clearly with a pencil. Next tip
the saw forward until the front end of the shoe sits firmly
on the work surface and the blade clears the work through
its full stroke. Switch the tool on and allow it to attain
maximum speed. Grip the saw firmly and lower the back
edge of tool slowly until the shoe sits flate on the surface.
Hold the shoe flat against the wood and continue cutting.
Do not remove blade from cut while it is still moving. Blade
must come to a completestop.
