6.1. CORDLESS JIGSAW SAFETY
RULES
CAUTION!
Read all safety regulations and instructions.
Any errors made in following the safety regulations and
instructions may result in an electric shock, fire and/or serious
injury.
Keep all safety regulations and instructions in a safe place
for future use.
•
Always check the saw, the power cable and the plug
before use. Only ever use the saw if it is in perfect,
undamaged condition. Damaged parts have to be
repaired or replaced immediately by a qualified
electrician.
•
Always remove the battery pack before carrying out
any work on the saw, before changing the blade and in
periods of non-use.
•
Keep the saw in a safe place and out of the reach of
children.
•
Always wear goggles, safety gloves and ear muffs when
sawing. Wear a breathing mask on dusty jobs.
•
Never leave any keys or adjustment spanners in position
on the saw. Before switching on, check that all keys and
adjustment spanners have been removed.
•
Secure the workpiece (with a clamp) so that it cannot slip.
•
It is prohibited to use the saw on asbestos materials.
Please note the accident prevention regulations in force
in your country.
•
Use only original spare parts. Repairs are to be carried out
by qualified electricians only.
•
The level of noise at the workplace may exceed 85 dB(A).
In this case you will need to introduce noise protection
measures for the user.
•
Make sure of your footing. Avoid abnormal working
positions.
•
Keep your electric tool out of the rain. Never use electric
tools in wet or damp conditions, and never use them near
inflammable liquids.
•
Keep your workplace tidy.
•
Make sure the power switch is off before inserting the
battery pack.
•
Wear suitable clothing. Never wear loose-fitting clothes or
jewelry. Use a hair-net on long hair.
•
For your own safety, use only the manufacturer’s
accessories and attachments.
•
Use only sharp saw blades that are in perfect condition.
Replace bent and cracked saw blades immediately.
•
After switching off the saw, do not press against the side
of the blade to bring it to a halt.
•
Always cut at a steady rate of progress. This will prevent
accidents and prolong the life of your saw and the blade.
•
Use only a damp cloth to clean your saw. Do not use any
aggressive agents for cleaning purposes.
•
Check your saw to ensure that it is in good working order.
If the saw fails to work properly, have it checked. Leave all
maintenance and inspection work strictly to a qualified
electrician or call our customer service on 1300 922 271.
•
Check the fastening screws
•
Check the fastening screws regularly and make sure that
they are all securely tightened. Tighten any loose screws
immediately, otherwise there is the risk of serious injuries.
•
Hold the equipment by the insulated handles when
carrying out work during which the plug-in tool could
strike concealed power cables or its own mains lead.
Contact with a live cable can also make the metal parts of
the equipment live and will cause an electric shock.
Protect yourself and your environment from accidents by
taking the appropriate precautionary measures.
•
Never look directly into the laser path.
•
Never direct the laser beam at reflecting surfaces or
persons or animals. Even a low output laser beam can
inflict injury on the eye.
•
Caution: It is vital to follow the work procedures described
in these instructions. Using the equipment in any other
way may result in hazardous exposure to laser radiation.

cause a recoil when the saw is restarted.
d) Support large panels to reduce the risk of a
recoil by a jammed saw blade.
Large panels
may sag under their own weight. Panels must be
supported on both sides both near the saw gap
and also at the edge.
e) Do not use blunt or damaged saw blades.
Saw blades with blunt or incorrectly aligned teeth
will create increased friction due to the saw gap
being too small. In addition the saw blade may
also jam and cause recoil.
f) Secure the cutting depth and cutting angle
settings before starting to saw.
If the settings
change as you are sawing, the saw blade may
jam and cause recoil.
g) Be particularly careful when carrying out a
“plunge cut” in a concealed area such as an
existing wall.
The plunge-cutting saw blade may
block when sawing into concealed objects and
thus cause recoil.
Safety instructions for saws with a swing guard
hood
a) Check that the bottom safety hood closes
perfectly before using the appliance. Do not
use the saw if the bottom safety hood does
not move freely and does not close
immediately. Never clamp or tie the bottom
guard hood in open position.
If you drop the
saw by accident the bottom guard hood may
become bent. Open the safety hood with the lever
and ensure that it moves freely and will not come
into contact with the saw blade or other parts
regardless of the cutting angle and depth.
b) Check the function of the spring on the
bottom safety hood. Have the appliance
serviced before you use it if the bottom
safety hood and spring are not in perfect
working order.
Damaged parts, sticky deposits
or accumulations of chips will result in the bottom
guard hood working with a delay.
c) Open the bottom safety hood by hand only
for special cuts, such as “immersion and
angle cuts”. Open the bottom safety hood
using the lever and release the lever again as
soon as the saw blade has engaged in the
workpiece.
The bottom safety hood must
operate automatically for all other sawing work.
d) Do not place the saw on a workbench or on
the floor unless the bottom guard hood is
covering the blade.
An unprotected, moving
saw blade will cause the saw to move opposite to
the sawing direction and saw through anything in
its way. Remember that the saw takes a little time
to slow down and stop.
Important: Laser radiation
Do not look into the beam
Laser class 2
Protect yourself and your environment from accidents
by taking the appropriate precautionary measures.
Never look directly into the laser path.
Never direct the laser beam at reflecting surfaces
or persons or animals. Even a low output laser
beam can inflict injury on the eye.
Caution: It is vital to follow the work procedures
described in these instructions. Using the
equipment in any other way may result in
hazardous exposure to laser radiation.
Never open the laser module.
