SAFETY

GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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 mains-operated

(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. Unmodied 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 an earth leakage circuit breaker.

Use of an earth leakage circuit breaker 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 nger 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.

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.

8

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 dierent

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) 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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR RECIPROCATING SAWS

• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and

other elements in your workpiece; remove them before

you start working

• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the

voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool (tools with
a rating of 230V or 240V can also be connected to a

220V supply)

• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a

capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)

• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,

immediately switch o the tool and disconnect the plug

• SKIL can assure awless functioning of the tool only

when the correct accessories are used which can be

obtained from your SKIL dealer

• Use only accessories with an allowable speed matching

at least the highest no-load speed of the tool

• This tool should not be used by people under the age of

16 years

• Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos

is considered carcinogenic)

• Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some

wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful
(contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic

reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator or
bystanders); wear a dust mask and work with a dust

extraction device when connectable

• Certain kinds of dust are classied as carcinogenic (such

as oak and beech dust) especially in conjunction with

additives for wood conditioning; wear a dust mask and
work with a dust extraction device when connectable

• Follow the dust-related national requirements for the

materials you want to work with

• Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade;

keep your second hand on barrel grip H 2 (if both

hands are holding the saw, they can not be cut by the blade)

• Do not reach underneath the workpiece (the proximity

of the blade to your hand is hidden from your sight)

• Never hold piece being cut in your hands or across

your leg (it is important to support the work properly to

minimise body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control)

• Use clamps or other equipment to secure and

support the workpiece (holding the workpiece in your

hand or against your body may lead to loss of control)

• Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when

performing an operation where the cutting tool may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord (contact with a

“live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and shock the operator)

• Use suitable detectors to find hidden utility lines or call

the local utility company for assistance (contact with

electric lines can lead to re or electrical shock; damaging a

gas line can result in an explosion; penetrating a water pipe
will cause property damage or an electrical shock)

• Do not use a dull or damaged blade (bent blades can

break easily or cause kickback)

• Keep hands away from between the tool housing and
blade clamp D 2 (the blade clamp can pinch your ngers)

• Ensure that blade clamp D 2 is tight before making
a cut (a loose clamp may cause the tool or blade to slip

with loss of control as a result)

• Wear protective glasses and hearing protection 4

• Use protective gloves when removing the blade from
the tool (the saw blade may be hot after prolonged use)

WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ONLY):

• Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live) wire
in the cord of this tool to the earth terminal of the plug

• If for any reason the old plug is cut o the cord of this tool,
it must be disposed of safely and not left unattended
