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) Repairs and service should only be performed by qualified persons, and only
with original spare parts. This guarantees the safety of the electrical hand tool.
Specific safety instructions for jigsaws
Warning: Always remove the battery from the jigsaw before performing any adjustment,
service or maintenance.
1. Hold the jigsaw by its isolated gripping surfaces whenever there is a risk of
the saw blade coming into contact with hidden live wires or its own power flex.
If the saw blade comes into contact with live wires it may electrify the metal parts
of the jigsaw which can give the user an electric shock.
2. Keep your hands away from the blade and other moving parts.
3. Do not reach under the workpiece being sawn. Be extra careful if the blade or your
hand is out of sight. Make sure that the underside of the workpiece is free of obstacles.
4. Do not use blunt or damaged saw blades. Bent saw blades can easily break or
cause kickback.
5. Start the saw and let it run up to full speed before starting to cut.
6. Keep the footplate against the workpiece at all times. Extra care should be taken
when using the saw with the footplate tilted so as not to exert undue lateral force
onto the saw blade.
7. Secure the workpiece with a clamp, vice, etc.
8. Make sure that the settings are correct and that the blade is securely fastened in
the blade holder before beginning to saw.
9. Make sure that the saw blade has come to a complete stop before removing
the saw from the cut. The saw blade should not be stopped by applying lateral
force to the side of the blade.
