JIGSAW SAFETY WARNINGS

■ Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring 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. ■ Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the workpiece by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control. ■ Use the dust collection device or connect a dust extraction vacuum when operating the product. ■ Keep mains lead clear from working range of the machine. Always lead the cable away behind you. ■ Wear a dust mask. Additional safety instructions ■ Avoid running the product at low speeds for extended periods of time. Running at low speeds under constant usage may cause the product to become overheated. If this occurs, cool the product by running it without a load at full speed. ■ Use the correct dust collection system as per the instructions in this manual. WARNING Dust from certain paints, coatings, and materials may cause irritation, or allergic reactions to the respiratory system. Dust from wood such as oak, beech, MDF, and others are carcinogenic. Materials containing asbestos should only be worked on or processed by qualied specialist operators. RESIDUAL RISKS Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following: ■ Injury caused by vibration – Use the lowest speed setting which achieves the cutting, limit exposure. See Risk Reduction. ■ Injury caused by dust – Dust may enter the eyes or respiratory system. Wear eye protection at all times. Wear appropriate dust control mask with filters suitable for protecting against particles from the material being cut. Do not eat, drink, or smoke in the work area. Ensure adequate ventilation. ■ Injury caused by electric shock – The blade may contact hidden wiring, causing parts of the product to become live. Always hold the product by the designated handles and take care when blind-cutting into walls and floors where cables may be hidden. ■ Injury caused by contact with the blade – The blades are very sharp and will become hot during use. Wear gloves when changing blades. Keep hands away from the cutting area at all times. Clamp the workpiece whenever possible. ■ Injury caused by noise – Noise can damage hearing. When using power tools for an extended period of time, wear hearing protection. RISK REDUCTION It has been reported that vibrations from handheld tools may contribute to a condition called Raynaud’s Syndrome in certain individuals. Symptoms may include tingling, numbness and blanching of the ngers, usually apparent upon exposure to cold. Hereditary factors, exposure to cold and dampness, diet, smoking and work practices are all thought to contribute to the development of these symptoms. There are measures that can be taken by theEnglish

operator to possibly reduce the effects of vibration: ■ Keep your body warm in cold weather. When operating the unit wear gloves to keep the hands and wrists warm. It is reported that cold weather is a major factor contributing to Raynaud’s Syndrome. ■ After each period of operation, exercise to increase blood circulation. ■ Take frequent work breaks. Limit the amount of exposure per day. If you experience any of the symptoms of this condition, immediately discontinue use and see your doctor about these symptoms. WARNING Injuries may be caused or aggravated by prolonged use of a tool. When using any tool for prolonged periods, ensure you take regular breaks.

It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure. The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period. An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.
