it was intended. USE RIGHT TOOL. Don’t force small tool or attachment to
heavy-duty tool. Don’t use tool for purpose not intended; for example, don’t use circular saw for cutting tree limbs or logs.
DRESS PROPERLY. Don’t wear loose clothing or jewelry.They can be caught
in
moving parts. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended
when working outdoors. Wear protective hair covering to contain long hair. USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust mask if cutting operation is
dusty. DON’T ABUSE CORD. Never carry tool by cord or yank
receptacle. Keep cord from heat, oil, and sharp edges. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to hold work. It’s safer than using
your hand and it frees both hands to operate tool. DON’T OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and clean for better and
safer performance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing acces­sories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if damaged, have repaired by authorized service facility. Inspect extension cords periodically and replace if damaged. Keep handles dry, clean, and free from oil and grease.

18. STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Don’t operate tool when you are tired.
19. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before further use of the tool, a guard or other
part that is damaged should be carefully checked to determine that it will
operate properly and perform its intended function. Check for alignment of
moving parts, binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, mounting, and any
other conditions that may affect its operation.
A
guard or other part that is damaged should be properly repaired or replaced by an authorized service center unless otherwise indicated elsewhere in this instruction manual. Have defective switches replaced by an authorized service center. Don’t use tool if the switch does not turn it on and
off.
20. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces. For example; pipes, radiators, ranges, refrigerator enclosures.
21. REPLACEMENT PARTS. When servicing, use only identical replacement parts.
22. POLARIZED PLUGS.To reduce the risk of electric shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). This plug will fit
in
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug
in
any way.

also cuts in this manner but, for softer
workpiece, an orbital cutting action can
be selected. Soft workpiece, like wood and plastic permit deep penetration of indi-
vidual saw teeth. The orbital action thrusts
the blade forward on the cutting stroke and greatly increases cutting speed over conventional jig saws. Harder workpiece
like metal should be cut using the straight
line cutting action or
a
very low orbital
setting. To select straight line or orbital cutting, adjust the number on the saw.
