b ) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence
of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the
dust orfumes.
c ) Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you to losecontrol.
2) Electrical Safety
a ) Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do
not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodified
plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electricshock.
b ) Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is earthed orgrounded.
c ) Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electricshock.
d ) Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging
the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.
Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electricshock.
e ) When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electricshock.
f ) If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk of
electricshock.
3) Personal Safety
a ) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a
power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence
of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power
tools may result in serious personalinjury.
b ) Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment such as a dust mask, non‑skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection
used for appropriate conditions will reduce personalinjuries.
c ) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off‑position before
connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the
tool. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or energizing power tools that
have the switch on invitesaccidents.
d ) Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on.
A wrench or a key left attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in
personalinjury.

ENGLISH
5
e ) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables
better control of the power tool in unexpectedsituations.
f ) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Keep your hair, clothing
and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or long hair can be
caught in movingparts.
g ) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection
facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can
reduce dust‑relatedhazards.
h ) Do not let familiarity gained from frequent use of tools allow you to become
complacent and ignore tool safety principles. A careless action can cause severe
injury within a fraction of asecond.
4) Power Tool Use and Care
a ) Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The
correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it wasdesigned.
b ) Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power
tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must berepaired.
c ) Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or remove the battery pack,
if detachable, from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing
accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk
of starting the power toolaccidentally.
d ) Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons
unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool.
Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrainedusers.
e ) Maintain power tools and accessories. Check for misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use.
Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained powertools.
f ) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp
cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier tocontrol.
g ) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these
instructions, taking into account the working conditions and the work to be
performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could
result in a hazardoussituation.
h ) Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
Slippery handles and grasping surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the
tool in unexpectedsituations.

WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer,
birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicalsare:
• lead from lead‑based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically‑treatedlumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work
with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed
to filter out microscopicparticles.
• Wear protective clothing and wash exposed areas with soap and water. Allowing dust
to get into your mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of harmfulchemicals.
Direct particles away from face andbody.
• Use the appropriate dust extractor vacuum to remove the vast majority of static
and airborne dust. Failure to remove static and airborne dust could contaminate
the working environment or pose an increased health risk to the operator and those in
closeproximity.
• Use clamps or other practical ways to secure and support the workpiece to a stable
platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss
of control andinjury.
• Air vents often cover moving parts and should be avoided. Loose clothes, jewelry or
long hair can be caught in movingparts.
CAUTION: When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it
will not cause a tripping or falling hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will
stand upright on the battery pack but may be easily knockedover.

Approved Materials
This tool is intended for use with paper, fabric, plastic, cardboard, leather, canvas, wallpaper,
thin rubber, thin carpet, vinyl, and thin wiremesh.
Project Tips
• Cut only with sharp blades; they cut cleaner, faster and put less strain on the motor
whilecutting.
• When cutting materials with adhesive backing periodically clean blades; adhesive
residue will build up on blades reducing the quality of cut and strain themotor.
• When cutting curves, do not tilt the tool; keep the blades perpendicular to the
workpiece.
• Advance blades into the material without forced effort or unnecessary pressure.
A little practice will enable you to determine what forward pressure gives you the
smoothestcutting.

endommagés ou enchevêtrés augmentent les risques de chocélectrique.
e ) Pour l’utilisation d’un outil électrique à l’extérieur, se servir d’une rallonge
convenant à cette application. L’utilisation d’une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur
réduira les risques de chocélectrique.
f ) S’il est impossible d’éviter l’utilisation d’un outil électrique dans un endroit
humide, brancher l’outil dans une prise ou sur un circuit d’alimentation dotés
d’un disjoncteur de fuite à la terre (GFCI). L’utilisation de ce type de disjoncteur
réduit les risques de chocélectrique.
3) Sécurité personnelle
a ) Être vigilant, surveiller le travail effectué et faire preuve de jugement lorsqu’un
outil électrique est utilisé. Ne pas utiliser d’outil électrique en cas de fatigue
ou sous l’influence de drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un simple
moment d’inattention en utilisant un outil électrique peut entraîner des blessures
corporellesgraves.

b ) Utiliser des équipements de protection individuelle. Toujours porter une
protection oculaire. L’utilisation d’équipements de protection comme un masque
antipoussière, des chaussures antidérapantes, un casque de sécurité ou des protecteurs
auditifs lorsque la situation le requiert réduira les risques de blessurescorporelles.
c ) Empêcher les démarrages intempestifs. S’assurer que l’interrupteur se trouve
à la position d’arrêt avant de relier l’outil à une source d’alimentation et/ou
d’insérer un bloc‑piles, de ramasser ou de transporter l’outil. Transporter un outil
électrique alors que le doigt repose sur l’interrupteur ou brancher un outil électrique
dont l’interrupteur est à la position de marche risque de provoquer unaccident.
d ) Retirer toute clé de réglage ou clé avant de démarrer l’outil. Une clé ou une clé
de réglage attachée à une partie pivotante de l’outil électrique peut provoquer des
blessurescorporelles.
e ) Ne pas trop tendre les bras. Conserver son équilibre en tout temps. Cela permet
de mieux maîtriser l’outil électrique dans les situationsimprévues.
f ) S’habiller de manière appropriée. Ne pas porter de vêtements amples ni de
bijoux. Garder les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants à l’écart des pièces
mobiles. Les vêtements amples, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent de rester
coincés dans les piècesmobiles.
g ) Si des composants sont fournis pour le raccordement de dispositifs de
dépoussiérage et de ramassage, s’assurer que ceux‑ci sont bien raccordés et
utilisés. L’utilisation d’un dispositif de dépoussiérage peut réduire les dangers engendrés
par lespoussières.
h ) Ne pas laisser votre connaissance acquise suite l’utilisation fréquente des outils
vous permettre de baisser la garde et ignorer les principes de sécurité de l’outil.
Un acte irréfléchi peut causer une blessure grave en une fraction deseconde.
4) Utilisation et entretien d’un outil électrique
a ) Ne pas forcer un outil électrique. Utiliser l’outil électrique approprié à
l’application. L’outil électrique approprié effectuera un meilleur travail, de façon plus
sûre et à la vitesse pour laquelle il a étéconçu.
b ) Ne pas utiliser un outil électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux. Tout outil
électrique dont l’interrupteur est défectueux est dangereux et doit êtreréparé.
c ) Débranchez la fiche de la prise électrique et, si amovible, retirez le bloc‑piles
de l’outil avant d’effectuer tout ajustement, changement et entreposage de
celui‑ci. Ces mesures préventives réduisent les risques de démarrage accidentel de
l’outilélectrique.
d ) Ranger les outils électriques hors de la portée des enfants et ne permettre à
aucune personne n’étant pas familière avec un outil électrique ou son mode

FRANÇAIS

d’emploi d’utiliser cet outil. Les outils électriques deviennent dangereux entre les
mains d’utilisateursinexpérimentés.
e ) Gardez les poignées et surfaces d’emprise propres et libres de tout produit
lubrifiant. Vérifier si les pièces mobiles sont mal alignées ou coincées, si des
pièces sont brisées ou présentent toute autre condition susceptible de nuire
au bon fonctionnement de l’outil électrique. En cas de dommage, faire réparer
l’outil électrique avant toute nouvelle utilisation. Beaucoup d’accidents sont
causés par des outils électriques malentretenus.
f ) S’assurer que les outils de coupe sont aiguisés et propres. Les outils de coupe bien
entretenus et affûtés sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et sont plus faciles àmaîtriser.
g ) Utiliser l’outil électrique, les accessoires, les forets, etc. conformément aux
présentes directives en tenant compte des conditions de travail et du travail à
effectuer. L’utilisation d’un outil électrique pour toute opération autre que celle pour
laquelle il a été conçu estdangereuse.
h ) Garder vos mains et les surfaces de prise sèches, propres et libres de graisse
et de poussière. Les mains et les surfaces de prise glissante ne permettent pas la
manutention et le contrôle sécuritaires de l’outil dans les situationsimprévues.
5) Utilisation et entretien du bloc‑piles
a ) Ne recharger l’outil qu’au moyen du chargeur précisé par le fabricant.
L’utilisation d’un chargeur qui convient à un type de bloc‑piles risque de provoquer un
incendie s’il est utilisé avec un autre type de b loc‑piles.
b ) Utiliser les outils électriques uniquement avec les blocs‑piles conçus à cet effet.
L’utilisation de tout autre bloc‑piles risque de causer des blessures ou unincendie.
c ) Lorsque le bloc‑piles n’est pas utilisé, le tenir éloigné des objets métalliques,
notamment des trombones, de la monnaie, des clés, des clous, des vis ou
autres petits objets métalliques qui peuvent établir une connexion entre les
deux bornes. Le court‑circuit des bornes du bloc‑piles risque de provoquer des brûlures
ou unincendie.
d ) En cas d’utilisation abusive, le liquide peut gicler hors du bloc‑piles; éviter tout
contact avec ce liquide. Si un contact accidentel se produit, laver à grande
eau. Si le liquide entre en contact avec les yeux, obtenir également des soins
médicaux. Le liquide qui gicle hors du bloc‑piles peut provoquer des irritations ou
desbrûlures.
e ) Ne pas utiliser de bloc‑piles ou outil qui a été endommagé ou modifié. Les unités
endommagées ou modifiées peuvent avoir une réaction imprévisible résultant en un
incendie, une explosion ou un potentiel deblessure.
