WARNING: Only use the battery cartridges and chargers listed above.Useofanyotherbatterycartridges

andchargersmaycauseinjuryand/orre. Intended use The tool is intended for the sawing of wood, plastic and metal materials. Noise The typical A-weighted noise level determined accord- ingtoEN62841-2-11: Sound pressure level (L

):95dB(A) Uncertainty(K):3dB(A) NOTE: The declared noise emission value(s) has beenmeasuredinaccordancewithastandardtest methodandmaybeusedforcomparingonetoolwith another. NOTE: The declared noise emission value(s) mayalsobeusedinapreliminaryassessmentof exposure.

WARNING: Wear ear protection.

WARNING: The noise emission during actual

use of the power tool can di󰀨er from the declared value(s) depending on the ways in which the tool is used especially what kind of workpiece is processed.

WARNING: Be sure to identify safety mea-

sures to protect the operator that are based on an estimation of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking account of all parts of the operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched o󰀨 and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time).

SAFETY WARNINGS General power tool safety warnings WARNING Read all safety warnings, instruc- tions, illustrations and specications provided with this power tool.Failuretofollowallinstructionslisted belowmayresultinelectricshock,reand/orserious injury. Save all warnings and instruc- tions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated(corded)powertoolorbattery-operated (cordless) power tool. Cordless jig saw safety warnings

1. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wir- ing. 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.Holdingtheworkpiecebyhandoragainst yourbodyleavesitunstableandmayleadtoloss 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 around the

workpiece before cutting so that the jig saw blade will not strike the oor, workbench, etc.

7. Hold the tool rmly.

8. Make sure the jig saw 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 jig saw

blade to come to a complete stop before removing the jig saw blade from the workpiece.

12. Do not touch the jig saw blade or the work-

piece immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.

13. Do not operate the tool at no-load

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. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

WARNING: DO NOT let comfort or familiarity

with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to safety rules for the subject product. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety rules stated in this instruction manual may cause serious personal injury. Important safety instructions for battery cartridge

1. Before using battery cartridge, read all instruc-

tions and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2) battery, and (3) product using battery.

2. Do not disassemble or tamper with the battery

cartridge.Itmayresultinare,excessiveheat, or explosion.

3. If operating time has become excessively

shorter, stop operating immediately. It may result in a risk of overheating, possible burns and even an explosion.

4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them

out with clear water and seek medical atten- tion right away. It may result in loss of your eyesight.

5. Do not short the battery cartridge:

(1) Do not touch the terminals with any con- ductive material. (2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a con- tainer with other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc. (3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or rain. A battery short can cause a large current ow, overheating, possible burns and even a breakdown.9 ENGLISH

6. Do not store and use the tool and battery car-

tridge in locations where the temperature may reach or exceed 50 °C (122 °F).

7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if

it is severely damaged or is completely worn out. The battery cartridge can explode in a re.

8. Do not nail, cut, crush, throw, drop the battery

cartridge, or hit against a hard object to the battery cartridge. Such conduct may result in a re,excessiveheat,orexplosion.

9. Do not use a damaged battery.

10. The contained lithium-ion batteries are subject

to the Dangerous Goods Legislation require- ments. Forcommercialtransportse.g.bythirdparties, forwarding agents, special requirement on pack- agingandlabelingmustbeobserved. Forpreparationoftheitembeingshipped,consult- ing an expert for hazardous material is required. Pleasealsoobservepossiblymoredetailed national regulations. Tapeormasko󰀨opencontactsandpackupthe batteryinsuchamannerthatitcannotmove around in the packaging.

11. When disposing the battery cartridge, remove

it from the tool and dispose of it in a safe place. Follow your local regulations relating to disposal of battery.

12. Use the batteries only with the products

specied by Makita.Installingthebatteriesto non-compliantproductsmayresultinare,exces- sive heat, explosion, or leak of electrolyte.

13. If the tool is not used for a long period of time,

the battery must be removed from the tool.

14. During and after use, the battery cartridge may

take on heat which can cause burns or low temperature burns. Pay attention to the han- dling of hot battery cartridges.

15. Do not touch the terminal of the tool imme-

diately after use as it may get hot enough to cause burns.

16. Do not allow chips, dust, or soil stuck into the

terminals, holes, and grooves of the battery cartridge.Itmaycauseheating,catchingre, burstandmalfunctionofthetoolorbatterycar- tridge,resultinginburnsorpersonalinjury.

17. Unless the tool supports the use near

high-voltage electrical power lines, do not use the battery cartridge near high-voltage electri- cal power lines. It may result in a malfunction or breakdownofthetoolorbatterycartridge.

18. Keep the battery away from children.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. CAUTION: Only use genuine Makita batteries. Useofnon-genuineMakitabatteries,orbatteriesthat havebeenaltered,mayresultinthebatterybursting causingres,personalinjuryanddamage.Itwill also void the Makita warranty for the Makita tool and charger. Tips for maintaining maximum battery life

1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely

discharged. Always stop tool operation and charge the battery cartridge when you notice less tool power.

2. Never recharge a fully charged battery car-

tridge. Overcharging shortens the battery service life.

3. Charge the battery cartridge with room tem-

perature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.

4. When not using the battery cartridge, remove

it from the tool or the charger.

5. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use

it for a long period (more than six months). FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched o󰀨 and the battery cartridge is removed before adjusting or checking function on the tool. Installing or removing battery cartridge CAUTION: Always switch o󰀨 the tool before installing or removing of the battery cartridge.
