special safety instructions
Check the following points:
Does the voltage of the motor (230 V)
correspond with the mains voltage?
Are the feeder cable and plug in good
condition: sturdy, without loose bits or
damage?
Has the saw lost any teeth and is it
showing cracks or fractures?
If so, replace the saw immediately.
Is there enough room under the
workpiece so that the saw does not come
into contact with the floor or work table as
it moves up and down?
Do the teeth of the saw point upwards?
Always wear protective goggles when using
the appliance.
Maintain the appliance carefully.
Do not use the appliance in a wet
environment.
Do not use the appliance for material which
contains asbestos.
Never leave the jigsaw unattended.
Check that the switch is not interlocked
in the 'on' position
using the appliance
Clamp the workpiece that you will be sawing
in firmly into place.
Remove any wood residue that is near or
stuck to the surface of the saw blade; do not
use your hand for this. Switch the appliance
off before removing any residue!
Always switch the jigsaw on in idle, i.e. switch
the jigsaw on before bringing it into contact
with the workpiece.
When sawing the wood watch out for knots,
nails, cracks and/or dirt deposits.
These can cause the saw blade to jam
dangerously. Also watch out for this with
waste wood. This often requires less careful
sawing, so there is a danger that you may not
be quite so careful about watching out for
irregularities in the wood.
Do not saw workpieces that are thicker than
the length of the saw blade.
Do not touch metal parts of the jigsaw when
sawing in walls or floors in which there could
be electricity cables.
Hold the jigsaw tightly with both hands on the
plastic grip so that you do not touch parts that
could become live if you accidentally saw
through an electricity cable.
When you have finished sawing, switch off the
appliance first and wait until the saw blade
comes to a standstill before removing it from
the workpiece.
Do not use long extension cables.
Keep the guard in place while the jigsaw is in
use.
Turn the appliance off immediately in the event of:
A faulty mains plug, mains flex or flex damage;
