Additional power tool safety warnings
Warning! Additional safety warnings for jigsaws
and reciprocating saws
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when
u
performing an operation where the cutting accessory
may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. 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
u
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and
may lead to loss of control.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach
u
underneath the work piece any reason. Do not insert
fingers or thumb into the vicinity of the reciprocating blade
