GENERAL SAFETY RULES
Safety is a combination of common sense, staying alert and knowing how your item works. SAVE THESE SAFE-
TY INSTRUCTIONS.
WARNING: To avoid mistakes and serious injury, do not plug in your tool until the following steps
have been read and understood.
1. READ and become familiar with this entire instruction manual. LEARN the tool’s applications, limitations, and
possible hazards.
2. AVOID DANGEROUS CONDITIONS. Do not use power tools in wet or damp areas or expose them to rain.
Keep work areas well lit.
3. DO NOT use power tools in the presence of flammable liquids or gases.
4. ALWAYS keep your work area clean, uncluttered, and well lit. DO NOT work on floor surfaces that are slippery
with sawdust or wax.
5. KEEP BYSTANDERS AT A SAFE DISTANCE from the work area, especially when the tool is operating.
NEVER allow children or pets near the tool.
6. DO NOT FORCE THE TOOL to do a job for which it was not designed.
7. DRESS FOR SAFETY. Do not wear loose clothing, gloves, neckties, or jewelry (rings, watches, etc.) when operating the tool. Inappropriate clothing and items can get caught in moving parts and draw you in. ALWAYS wear
non-slip footwear and tie back long hair.
8. WEAR A FACE MASK OR DUST MASK to fight the dust produced by sawing operations.
WARNING: Dust generated from certain materials can be hazardous to your health. Always operate the tool in a well-ventilated area and provide for proper dust removal. Use dust collection systems
whenever possible.
9. ALWAYS remove the power cord plug from the electrical outlet when making adjustments, changing parts,
cleaning, or working on the tool.
10. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE AND IN WORKING ORDER.
11. AVOID ACCIDENTAL START-UPS. Make sure the power switch is in the OFF position before plugging in
the power cord.
12. REMOVE ADJUSTMENT TOOLS. Always make sure all adjustment tools are removed from the saw before
turning it on.
13. NEVER LEAVE A RUNNING TOOL UNATTENDED. Turn the power switch to OFF. Do not leave the
tool until it has come to a complete stop.
14. NEVER STAND ON A TOOL. Serious injury could result if the tool tips or is accidentally hit. DO NOT store
anything above or near the tool.

GENERAL SAFETY RULES
15. DO NOT OVERREACH. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Wear oil-resistant rubber-soled footwear. Keep the floor clear of oil, scrap, and other debris.
16. MAINTAIN TOOLS PROPERLY. ALWAYS keep tools clean and in good working order. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.
17. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Check for alignment of moving parts, jamming, breakage, improper
mounting, or any other conditions that may affect the tool’s operation. Any part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced before use.
18. MAKE THE WORKSHOP CHILDPROOF. Use padlocks and master switches and ALWAYS remove starter keys.
19. DO NOT operate the tool if you are under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication that may affect your
ability to properly use the tool.
20. USE SAFETY GOGGLES AT ALL TIMES that comply with ANSI Z87.1. Normal safety glasses only have
impact resistant lenses and are not designed for safety. Wear a face or dust mask when working in a dusty environment. Use ear protection such as plugs or muffs during extended periods of operation.
SPECIFIC RULES FOR JIG SAW
WARNING: Do not operate this tool until it is completely assembled and installed according to the
instructions.
1. Wait for the cutter to stop before setting the tool down. An exposed rotating cutter may engage the surface, leading to possible loss of control and serious injury.
2. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces only in case the cutter contacts its own cord. Cutting a “live”
wire may make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
3. Secure the workpiece to a stable platform using clamps or another practical method. Holding the work by hand
or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to a loss of control.
4. Secure the material being cutted. Never hold it in your hand or across your legs. Small workpieces must be adequately secured so that the rotating jig saw blades don’t pick them up during the forward motion of the jig saw.
Unstable support causes the blades to bind, resulting in a loss of control and possible injury.
5. Always start the jig saw before the blade is in contact with the workpiece. Let the blade reach full speed before
using the tool. The jig saw can vibrate or chatter and possibly kickback if the cutting speed is too slow.
6. Check the workpiece for nails. If there are nails, either remove them or set them well below intended finished
surface. If the jig saw blades strike objects like nails it may cause serious personal injury from kickback.
7. Unplug the jig saw before changing accessories. Accidental start-ups may occur if the jig saw is plugged in during
an accessory change. Before plugging the tool back in, check that the trigger lock is OFF.

SPECIFIC RULES FOR JIG SAW
8. After changing blades, rotate the blade cylinder (cutter drum) to make sure the blades don’t hit any part of the
blade head housing and that the blade locking screws are tight. Loose or misaligned blades have the potential to
strike tool housing and damage the tool as well as cause possible injury.
9. Always hold the tool firmly with both hands for maximum control.
10. Never pull the jig saw backwards over the workpiece.
11. Do not put fingers or any objects into the chip ejector. Do not clean out chips while the tool is running. Contact
with the blade drum will cause injury.
12. Remove the plug from power source before removing chips. The blades are hidden from view and you may be
cut if the blade is contacted.
13. GFCI and personal protection devices such as electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will increase personal
safety.
14. Keep handles and hands dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery surfaces cannot safely maintain control of the power tool.
15. Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful not to disassemble any
portion of the tool. Internal wires may be misplaced or pinched and safety guard return springs may be improperly
mounted.
16. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
ELECTRICAL INFORMATION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
IN THE EVENT OF A MALFUNCTION OR BREAKDOWN, grounding provides the path of least resistance
for an electric current and reduces the risk of electric shock. This tool is equipped with an electric cord that has an
equipment grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug MUST be plugged into a matching outlet that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with ALL local codes and ordinances.
DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG PROVIDED. If it will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet installed by a
licensed electrician.
IMPROPER CONNECTION of the equipment grounding conductor can result in electric shock. The conductor with the green insulation (with or without yellow stripes) is the equipment grounding conductor. If repair or
replacement of the electric cord or plug is necessary, DO NOT connect the equipment grounding conductor to a
live terminal.
CHECK with a licensed electrician or service personnel if you do not completely understand the grounding instructions or whether the tool is properly grounded.
CAUTION: In all cases, make certain the outlet in question is properly grounded. If you are not sure, have a licensed electrician check the outlet.
