SAFETY WARNINGS
General power tool safety warnings
WARNING:
Read all safety warnings, instruc-
tions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool.
Failure to follow all instructions
listed below may result in electric shock, fire 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.
Cordless recipro 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.
Holding the workpiece 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 floor, workbench, etc.
7.
Hold the tool firmly.
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 off 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.
Always use the correct dust mask/respirator
for the material and application you are work-
ing with.
15.
Some material contains chemicals which may
be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala-
tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier
safety data.
16.
Before operation, make sure that there is no
buried object such as electric pipe, water pipe
or gas pipe in the workpiece.
Otherwise, the
recipro saw blade may touch them, resulting an
electric shock, electrical leakage or gas leak.
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.
