KS480PE - Saw BLACK & DECKER - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL KS480PE BLACK & DECKER

Your Black & Decker jigsaw has been designed for sawing wood, plastics, ceramics and sheet metal.

This tool is intended for consumer use only.

General safety rules

Warning! Read all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. The term "power tool" in all of the warnings listed below refers to your mains operated (corded) power tool or battery operated (cordless) power tool. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

1. Work area

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered and dark areas invite accidents.
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.

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 safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Safety equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.
c. Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is in the off position before plugging in. Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in 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.
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 jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery 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 these devices can reduce dust related hazards.

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 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. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tools 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.

ENGLISH

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended for the particular type of power tool, 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.

5. Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Electrical safety

This tool is double insulated; therefore no earth wire is required. Always check that the power supply corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.

Additional safety instructions for jigsaws

◆Pull the shoe plate (6) forward, set it to the required angle and push it back into place. You can use the scale or a protractor to check the angle.
◆Make sure that the blade support roller is adjusted correctly.
◆Tighten the screws (13).

To reset the shoe plate for straight cuts:

◆Loosen the screws (13).
◆Pull the shoe plate forward and set it to an angle of approx. 0^ .
◆Make sure that the blade support roller is adjusted correctly.
◆Push the shoe plate backward and tighten the screws (13).
◆Use a square to check the angle.

Setting the pendulum stroke

◆Set the pendulum stroke selector (7) to the desired position.
- Position 0: for laminates and sheet metal
- Position 1: for plywood, metal and aluminium
- Position 2: for soft wood and pvc

Variable speed control

◆Set the variable speed control knob (3) to the required speed range. Use a high speed for wood, medium speed for aluminium and PVC and low speed for metals other than aluminium.

Switching on and off

◆To switch the tool on, press the on/off switch (1).
◆For continuous operation, press the lock-on button (2) and release the on/off switch.
◆To switch the tool off, release the on/off switch. To switch the tool off when in continuous operation, press the on/off switch once more and release it.

Hints for optimum use

Sawing laminates

As the saw blade cuts on the upward stroke, splintering may occur on the surface closest to the shoe plate.

◆Use a fine-tooth saw blade.
◆Saw from the back surface of the workpiece.
◆To minimise splintering, clamp a piece of scrap wood or hardboard to both sides of the workpiece and saw through this sandwich.

Sawing metal

◆Be aware that sawing metal takes much more time than sawing wood.
◆Use a saw blade suitable for sawing metal.
When cutting thin sheet metal, clamp a piece of scrap wood to the back surface of the workpiece and cut through this sandwich.
◆Spread a film of oil along the intended line of cut.

Accessories

The performance of your tool depends on the accessory used. Black & Decker and Piranha accessories are engineered to high quality standards and designed to enhance the performance of your tool. By using these accessories you will get the very best from your tool.

Maintenance

Your tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper tool care and regular cleaning.

◆Regularly clean the ventilation slots with a clean, dry paint brush.
◆To clean the tool, use only mild soap and a damp cloth. Never let any liquid get inside the tool and never immerse any part of the tool into liquid.
◆Occasionally apply a drop of oil to the axle of the blade support roller.

Mains plug replacement (U.K. & Ireland only)

If a new mains plug needs to be fitted:

◆Safely dispose of the old plug.
◆Connect the brown lead to the live terminal in the new plug.
◆Connect the blue lead to the neutral terminal.

[Non-Text]

The Ground Truth image displays a single, continuous horizontal line, which is a stylistic or background element (like a ruled paper line). According to Rule 2, such lines must be ignored by the OCR result. The provided OCR content is "____", which consists of underscores. Underscores are not equivalent to a solid line and are not permitted under the “Stylistic/Background Lines (Ignore)” rule. Outputting underscores for a stylistic line is incorrect because it misinterprets the line as a fill-in-the-blank placeholder. Since the OCR output incorrectly rendered a stylistic line as underscores (which should be ignored), this violates the rule. Therefore, the OCR result is inconsistent with the Ground Truth.
