Noise and vibration data: Noise measurement value determined in accord- ance with EN ISO 4871 The A-rated noise level of the power tool is typically as follows: Sound pressure level: 80 dB(a) Sound power level: 91 dB(a) Uncertainty K: 3 dB Wear ear protection! Weighted acceleration, typically: Hand/arm vibration a

The vibration level specifi ed in these instruc- tions has been measured in accordance with a standardised measuring procedure specifi ed in EN 60745 and can be used to make equipment comparisons. The specifi ed vibration emission value can also be used to make an initial exposure estimate. WARNING! ► The vibration level varies in accordance with the use of the power tool and may be higher than the value specifi ed in these instructions in some cases. There is a risk of underestima- tion of the vibration load if the power tool is used regularly in this manner. Try to keep the vibration loads as low as possible. Measures to reduce the vibration load are, e.g. wearing gloves and limiting the working time. Wherein all states of operation must be included (e.g. times when the power tool is switched off and times where the power tool is switched on but running without load). 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, fi re 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.

a) Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents. b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of fl am- mable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools cre- ate 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. Unmodifi ed 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 elec- tric 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 entan- gled cords increase the risk of electric shock. IB_102866_PSTDA18-LiA1_LB3.indb 3 22.10.14 13:474 PSTDA 18-Li A1

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 residual current device (RCD) protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of electric shock.

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 infl uence 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 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 connect- ing to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or energising 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, jewel- lery 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.

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 can- not be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. c) 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. 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 misalign- ment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may aff ect the power tool’s operation. If dam- aged, 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 diff erent from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5. Use and handling of the cordless

power tool a) Charge the rechargeable battery unit using only the charger recommended by the manu- facturer. Chargers are often designed for a par- ticular type of rechargeable battery unit. There is the danger of fi re if other types of rechargeable battery units are used. IB_102866_PSTDA18-LiA1_LB3.indb 4 22.10.14 13:475 PSTDA 18-Li A1

b) Only the rechargeable battery units supplied are to be used with the power tools. The use of other rechargeable battery units may result in injury or a fi re hazard. c) When they are not being used, store recharge- able battery units away from paper clips, coins, keys. nails, screws or other small metal objects that could cause the contacts to be bridged. Short-circuiting the contacts of a rechargeable battery unit may result in burns or fi re. d) Fluid may leak out of rechargeable battery units if they are misused. If this happens, avoid contact with the fl uid. If accidental contact oc- curs, rinse the aff ected area with water. Seek additional medical help if any of the fl uid gets into your eyes. Escaping battery fl uid may cause skin irritation or burns. CAUTION! RISK OF EXPLOSION! Never charge non-rechargeable batteries! Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against continuous intense sunlight, fi re, water and moisture. Danger of explosion.

a) Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical replace- ment parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained. Appliance-specifi c safety instructions for jigsaws ■ Hold the power tool by the insulated handles if carrying out work during which the power tool may come into contact with concealed power cables. Contact with a live cable may also cause metal parts of the appliance to become live and may result in electric shock. Safety guidelines for battery chargers ■ This appliance may be used by children aged 8 years and above and by persons with limited physical, sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, provided that they are under supervision or have been told how to use the appliance safely and are aware of the potential risks. Children must not use the appliance as a plaything. Cleaning and user maintenance tasks may not be carried out by children unless they are supervised. This charger is suitable for indoor use only. WARNING! ■ Do not operate the appliance with a dam- aged cable, supply cord or mains plug. A damaged power cord causes danger to life by electric shock. Supplementary notes ■ Keep your hands away from the sawing area. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. Con- tact with the saw blade may result in injury. ■ Keep your hands away from the stroke rod and the quick-release chuck. There is a risk of crushing if contact is made with these components. ■ Always switch on the power tool before apply- ing it to the workpiece.
