WARNING! WARNING!
Before using the power tool, please read and
follow:
these operating instructions,
the "General safety instructions" on the
handling of power tools in the enclosed
booklet (leaflet-no.: 315.915),
the currently valid site rules and the
regulations for the prevention of accidents.
This power tool is state of the art and has
been constructed in accordance with the
acknowledged safety regulations.
Nevertheless, when in use, the power tool may
be a danger to life and limb of the user or a
third party, or the power tool or other property
may be damaged.
The jigsaw may be used only
as intended,
in perfect working order.
Faults which impair safety must be repaired
immediately.
Intended use Intended use
The jigsaw is designed
for commercial use in industry and trade,
for sawing metal, plastic and wood,
14
for sawing tiles and ceramics
for straight and curved cuts,
to be used with suitable tools
Safety warnings for jig saw Safety warnings for jig saw
Hold the 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 workpiece by hand or against your body leaves
it unstable and may lead to loss of control.

Noise and vibration

Noise and vibration
The noise and vibration values have
been determined in accordance with EN
62841. The A evaluated noise level of the
power tool is typically:
Sound pressure level L
Sound power level L
Uncertainty:
Total vibration value:
Emission value ah,B(cutting boards):
Emission value ah,M(cutting sheet
metal):
Uncertainty:
CAUTION! CAUTION!
The indicated measurements refer to new power
tools. Daily use causes the noise and vibration
values to change.
NOTE NOTE
The vibration emission level given in this
information sheet has been measured in
accordance with a standardised test given in EN
62841 and may be used to compare one tool
with another.
It may be used for a preliminary assessment
of exposure. The declared vibration emission
level represents the main applications of the
tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or poorly
maintained, the vibration emission may differ.
This may significantly increase the exposure
level over the total working period. For a precise
estimation of the vibration load the times should
also be considered during which the power tool
is switched off or even running, but not actually
