General Power Tool Safety Warnings
WARNING Read all safety warnings and all
instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instruc-
tions may result in electric shock, re and/or serious
injury.
Save all warnings and instruc-
tions 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
1. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
2. Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of ammable
liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
3. Keep children and bystanders away while
operating a power tool. Distractions can cause
you to lose control.
Electrical safety
4. 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. Unmodied plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
5. Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of elec-
tric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
6. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet con-
ditions. Water entering a power tool will increase
the risk of electric shock.
7. 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.
8. 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.
9. If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit inter-
rupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an GFCI
reduces the risk of electric shock.
Personal safety
10. 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 inuence of drugs, alcohol or med-
ication. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
11. 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.
12. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the
switch is in the o󰀨-position before connecting
to power source and/or battery pack, picking
up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with
your nger on the switch or energising power tools
that have the switch on invites accidents.
13.
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.
14. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times. This enables better control
of the power tool in unexpected situations.
15. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves
away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel-
lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.
16. 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.
Power tool use and care
17. 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.
18. Do not use the power tool if the switch does
not turn it on and o󰀨. Any power tool that cannot
be controlled with the switch is dangerous and
must be repaired.

3ENGLISH
19. 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 pre-
ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting
the power tool accidentally.
20. Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil-
dren 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.
21. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts
and any other condition that may a󰀨ect the
power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the
power tool repaired before use. Many accidents
are caused by poorly maintained power tools.
22. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges
are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
23.
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 di󰀨erent
from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
Service
24.
Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
25. Follow instruction for lubricating and chang-
ing accessories.
26.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease.
USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your exten-
sion cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord,
be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your
product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line
voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1
shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and
nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier
gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

JIG SAW SAFETY WARNINGS
1. Hold power tool by insulated gripping sur-
faces, when performing an operation where
the cutting accessory may contact hidden wir-
ing 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.
2. Use clamps or another practical way to secure
and support the workpiece to a stable plat-
form. Holding the work by hand or against your
body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of
control.
3. Always use safety glasses or goggles.
Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety
glasses.
4. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect workpiece for any
nails and remove them before operation.
5. Do not cut oversize workpiece.
6. Check for the proper clearance beyond the
workpiece before cutting so that the blade will
not strike the oor, workbench, etc.
7. Hold the tool rmly.
8. Make sure the blade is not contacting the
workpiece before the switch is turned on.
9. Keep hands away from moving parts.
10. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool
only when hand-held.
11. Always switch o󰀨 and wait for the blade to
come to a complete stop before removing the
blade from the workpiece.
12. Do not touch the blade or the workpiece imme-
diately after operation; they may be extremely
hot and could burn your skin.
13. Do not operate the tool at no-load
unnecessarily.
14. Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier
safety data.
15. Always use the correct dust mask/respirator
for the material and application you are work-
ing with.

► 1. Speed adjusting dial
The tool speed can be innitely adjusted by turning the speed
adjusting dial. Higher speed is obtained when the speed adjust-
ing dial is turned in the direction of number 5; lower speed is
obtained when it is turned in the direction of number 1.
Refer to the table to select the proper speed for the
workpiece to be cut. However, the appropriate speed
may di󰀨er with the type or thickness of the workpiece. In
general, higher speeds will allow you to cut workpieces
faster but the service life of the blade will be reduced.

Always be sure that the tool is switched o󰀨 and
unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.
Installing or removing saw blade
CAUTION:
•
Always clean out all chips or foreign matter
adhering to the blade and/or blade holder. Failure
to do so may cause insu󰀩cient tightening of the
blade, resulting in a serious personal injury.
• Do not touch the blade or the workpiece imme-
diately after operation; they may be extremely
hot and could burn your skin.
• Use only B type blades. Using blades other than
B type blades causes insu󰀩cient tightening of

For internal cutouts without a lead-in cut from an
edge, pre-drill a starting hole 12 mm (1/2") or more
in diameter. Insert the blade into this hole to start
your cut.
B) Plunge cutting
You need not bore a starting hole or make a
lead-in cut if you carefully do as follows.
(1) Tilt the tool up on the front edge of the base
with the blade point positioned just above the
workpiece surface.
(2) Apply pressure to the tool so that the front
edge of the base will not move when you
switch on the tool and gently lower the back
end of the tool slowly.
(3) As the blade pierces the workpiece, slowly
lower the base of the tool down onto the
workpiece surface.
(4) Complete the cut in the normal manner.
Finishing edges
To trim edges or make dimensional adjustments, run the
blade lightly along the cut edges.
Metal cutting
Always use a suitable coolant (cutting oil) when cutting
metal. Failure to do so will cause signicant blade wear.
The underside of the workpiece can be greased instead
of using a coolant.

Consignes de sécurité générales
pour outils électriques
MISE EN GARDE Veuillez lire toutes les mises en
garde de sécurité et toutes les instructions. L'ignorance
des mises en garde et des instructions comporte un risque
de choc électrique, d'incendie et/ou de blessure grave.
Conservez toutes les mises en
garde et instructions pour réfé-
rence future.
Le terme « outil électrique » qui gure dans les avertis-
sements fait référence à un outil électrique branché sur
une prise de courant (par un cordon d'alimentation) ou
alimenté par batterie (sans l).
Sécurité de la zone de travail
1. Maintenez la zone de travail propre et bien
éclairée. Les zones de travail encombrées ou
sombres ouvrent grande la porte aux accidents.
2. N'utilisez pas les outils électriques dans les
atmosphères explosives, par exemple en pré-
sence de liquides, gaz ou poussières inam-
mables. Les outils électriques produisent des
étincelles au contact desquelles la poussière ou
les vapeurs peuvent s'enammer.
3. Assurez-vous qu'aucun enfant ou curieux ne
s'approche pendant que vous utilisez un outil
électrique. Vous risquez de perdre la maîtrise de
l'outil si votre attention est détournée.
Sécurité en matière d'électricité
4.
Les ches d'outil électrique sont conçues pour
s'adapter parfaitement aux prises de courant. Ne
modiez jamais la che de quelque façon que ce
soit. N'utilisez aucun adaptateur de che sur les
outils électriques avec mise à la terre. En ne modi-
ant pas les ches et en les insérant dans des prises
de courant pour lesquelles elles ont été conçues vous
réduirez les risques de choc électrique.
5. Évitez tout contact corporel avec les surfaces
mises à la terre, telles que les tuyaux, radia-
teurs, cuisinières et réfrigérateurs. Le risque
de choc électrique est plus élevé si votre corps se
trouve mis à la terre.
6. N'exposez pas les outils électriques à la pluie
ou à l'eau. La présence d'eau dans un outil élec-
trique augmente le risque de choc électrique.
7. Ne maltraitez pas le cordon. N'utilisez jamais
le cordon pour transporter, tirer ou débrancher
l'outil électrique. Maintenez le cordon à l'écart
des sources de chaleur, de l'huile, des objets à
bords tranchants et des pièces en mouvement.
Le risque de choc électrique est plus élevé lorsque
les cordons sont endommagés ou enchevêtrés.
8. Lorsque vous utilisez un outil électrique à l'ex-
térieur, utilisez un cordon prolongateur prévu
à cette n. Les risques de choc électrique sont
moindres lorsqu'un cordon conçu pour l'extérieur
est utilisé.
9. Si vous devez utiliser un outil électrique dans
un endroit humide, utilisez une source d'ali-
mentation protégée par un disjoncteur de fuite
à la terre. L'utilisation d'un disjoncteur de fuite à la
terre réduit le risque de choc électrique.
Sécurité personnelle
10. Restez alerte, attentif à vos mouvements et
faites preuve de bon sens lorsque vous utili-
sez un outil électrique. Évitez d'utiliser un outil
électrique si vous êtes fatigué ou si vous avez
pris une drogue, de l'alcool ou un médicament.
Un moment d'inattention pendant l'utilisation d'un
outil électrique peut entraîner une grave blessure.
11. Portez des dispositifs de protection person-
nelle. Portez toujours un protecteur pour la
vue. Les risques de blessure seront moins élevés
si vous utilisez des dispositifs de protection tels
qu'un masque antipoussières, des chaussures à
semelle antidérapante, une coi󰀨ure résistante ou
une protection d'oreilles.
12. Évitez les démarrages accidentels. Assurez-
vous que l’interrupteur soit en position d'arrêt
avant de brancher l'outil à la prise électrique
et/ou au bloc-piles, avant de prendre ou de
transporter l’outil. Vous ouvrez la porte aux
accidents si vous transportez les outils électriques
avec le doigt sur l’interrupteur ou si vous les bran-
chez alors que l’interrupteur est en position de
marche.
