To operate this tool, carefully read this
Instruction Manual and all labels affixed to
the Corded Jigsaw before using. Keep this
manual available for future reference.
IMPORTANT
This tool should only be serviced by a
qualified service technician.
GENERAL POWER TOOL SAFETY
WARNINGS
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire and/or serious injury.
SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS
FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
The term “power tool” in the warnings refers
to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or
battery-operated (cordless) power tool.
WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep the work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
• 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.
• Keep children andbystanders away
while operating a power tool. Distractions
can cause you tolose control.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• 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.
• Avoid body contactwith earthed or
grounded surfaces, such as pipes,
radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock
if yourbody is
earthedorgrounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or
wet conditions. Water entering a power
tool will
increase the risk of electric
shock.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
WARNING!
• Safety symbols in this instruction manual are used to flag possible dangers. The safety symbols
and their explanations require your full understanding. The safety warnings do not, by themselves,
eliminate any danger, nor are they substitutes for proper accident prevention measures.
• This safety alert symbol indicates caution, warning, or danger. Failure to obey a safety warning
can result in serious injury to yourself or others. To reduce the risk of injury, fire, or electric shock,
always follow the safety precautions.

SAFETY INFORMATION
PERSONAL SAFETY
• 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.
• Use personal protective equipment.
Always wear eye protection. Protective
equipment
such as dust mask, non-
skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing
protection used for appropriate
conditions will reduce personal injuries.
• 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 energising power
tools that have
the switch on invites
accidents.
• 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.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. This enables
better
control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose
clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair,
clothing and gloves away from moving
parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long
hair can be caught in
moving parts.
• If devices are provided for the
connection of dust extraction and
collection facilities,
ensure that these
are connected and properly used. Use
of these devices can reduce
dust-related
hazards.
POWER TOOL USE AND CARE
• Do not force the power tool. Use
the correct power tool for your
application. The
correct power tool will
do the job better and more safely at the
rate for which it was designed.
• 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.
• Disconnect the plug from the power
source and/or the battery pack 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.
• 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.
• Maintain power tools. 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.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean.
Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind
and are easier to control.
• Use the power tool, accessories, 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.

If you feel uneasy on a slope, do not mow it.
1. Mow across the face of slopes; never up and down. Exercise extreme caution when changing
direction on slopes.
2. Watch for holes, ruts, bumps, rocks, or other hidden objects. Uneven terrain could cause a
slip and fall accident. Tall grass can hide obstacles.
3. Do not mow on wet grass or excessively steep slopes. Poor footing could cause a slip and fall
accident.
4. Do not mow near drop-offs, ditches, or embankments. You could lose your footing or
balance.
III. CHILDREN
Tragic accidents can occur if the operator is not alert to the presence of children.
Children are often attracted to the machine and the mowing activity. Never assume that
children will remain where you last saw them.
1. Keep children away from the work area and monitored by a responsible adult other than the
machine operator.
2. Stay alert and stop the mower if a child enters the work area.

STRAIGHT CUTTING (Fig. 6)
Mark the cut. Position the saw so that the
blade is in line with the desired cut. Mark the
position of the side edge of the saw base and
then clamp the straight edge on the mark,
parallel to the cut. Make the cut from one
direction only. Never cut halfway and then
complete the cut from the opposite end.
GENERAL CUTTING
1. Firmly clamp the workpiece in place.
2. Use the appropriate type and size of blade for the workpiece.
3. Check the clearance behind the workpiece and assure that the blade will not impact
another surface.
4. Clearly mark the line of cut.
5. Hold the saw firmly. Make sure that your hand is on the insulated gripping areas only.
6. Rest the base plate on the workpiece so that the blade is not in contact with the
workpiece
7. Turn on the jigsaw and bring it to the maximum desired cutting speed before applying
the blade to the workpiece.
8. Slowly move the jig saw into the workpiece.
9. Do not force the tool. Keep the base plate flat against the workpiece while cutting. Use
only enough steady pressure on the blade to keep the saw cutting.
10. Reduce pressure as the blade comes to the end of the cut.
11. Allow the saw to come to a complete stop before removing the blade from the workpiece.
12. If sawing fibreglass, plaster, wallboard, or spackling compound, clean the saw motor
vents frequently with a vacuum or compressed air. Always wear safety goggles when
cleaning tools using compressed air. These materials are highly abrasive and may
accelerate the wear on motor bearings and brushes.

- Switch motor OFF.
- Wait until all moving parts have come to a complete standstill.
- Remove the plug from the power source.
After working with the appliance
Always unplug the power cord if leaving the lawn mower unattended.
DANGER
Never use a lawnmower if it has damaged safety devices or if there are no safety devices
fitted.
Accident Prevention
No person, especial children, or animals should be allowed to stand close to the mower while it is
in use. Risk of injury due to ejected stones or other objects.
Tripping Hazard
Operate the lawn mower at walking speed only.
1) Be particularly careful when mowing in reverse and pulling the machine towards you.
2) When mowing on steep slopes, there is a risk of the mower tipping over and you could be
injured as a result. Mow crossways to the slope, never upwards and downwards. Do not mow
on inclines greater than 20%.
3) Be particularly careful when changing the mowing direction and always maintain a stable
position.
4) Mowing along perimeters of cliffs or steep inclines involves a risk of injury. Keep a safe
distance from perimeters of dangerous terrain when mowing.
5) If the ground is wet the mower could slip due to reduced traction and overturn. Mow only
when the grass is dry.
6) Work only by daylight or in good artificial lighting.
Injury Prevention
1) Always maintain a safe distance from the rotating blade by holding and standing behind the
steering handle.
2) Never place your hands, feet, or other parts of the body near rotating parts.
3) Stop the motor when the lawnmower has to be tilted and when travelling over surfaces other
than grass for transporting.
4) Never lift or carry the machine when the motor is running. Remove the plug from the outlet
before handling mower.
5) Switch off the motor and pull out the plug when releasing jambs, removing blockages in the
ejection channel or before checking, cleaning, transporting, adjusting or working on the lawn
mower.
6) If you remove the grass catcher, you or other persons might get injured due to ejected,
mowed materials or foreign objects.
7) Never empty the grass bag while the motor is running. To do this, switch off the lawn mower.
8) Check the surface which the lawn mower is to be used on and remove all objects that the
machine can eject out of the discharge chute.
9) If a foreign object (e.g. stone) is hit by the cutting blade or the lawn mower starts vibrating
abnormally, stop the motor immediately and remove the plug from the outlet. Check the lawn
mower for damage, and have any damage repaired at an authorized repair facility.
10) For lawnmowers with rotating blades, never stand in front of the grass disharge chute.
Tripping hazard
When changing directions, be careful not to trip over the mains cable and injure yourself. Position
the extension cord behind you so that it stays out of the path which you are walking along while
mowing, and is kept away from the cutting blade.
1) Stones, branches or other objects lying around can cause damage to the lawn mower and its
operation. Remove all objects from the machine’s path before every use.
2) Do not operate the machine if it is not in perfect working order. Conduct a thorough visual
check before using it. In particular, check that protective equipment, electrical controls,
current-carrying cables and threaded connections are not damaged and are secure.
3) Replace damaged parts before operating the unit.

Mowing Tips
NOTE: A sharp blade will greatly enhance the performance of the mower, especially when cutting
high grass.
Be sure to check the blade and to sharpen it at least once per year, as described in the Mainte-
nance section.
• Verify that the lawn is free of stones, sticks, wires and other objects that could damage the
blades or the motor. These objects could be accidentally thrown by the mower in any
direction, and could cause serious personal injury to the operator and to others.
• In order to prevent electric shock, do not operate the mower in damp or wet conditions.
• Do not mow in a circle. Travel back and forth across the lawn. (Fig. 1)
• When cutting thick grass, reduce walking speed in order to allow for a more effective cut and
a proper discharge of the clippings. For a healthy lawn, always cut off one-third or less of the
total length of the grass. The average lawn should be approximately 1 1/2 to 2" (3.8 to 5 cm)
long during cool months, and more than 2” (5 cm) long during hot months. If there is growth,
the lawn should be cut in the fall.
• While cutting, ensure that the electric cable is always behind you and on the area of grass
already cut. The lawn will look better if it is always cut to the same height and in alternate
directions.
WARNING
If you strike a foreign object, stop the motor and disconnect the
power cord. Thoroughly inspect the mower for any damage. Repair
any damage before operating the mower.
