3. Additional safety instructions for
jig saws
• Do not work materials containing
asbestos. Asbestos is considered
carcinogenic.
• Wear safety goggles, hearing protection
and if necessary other protective
means, such as safety gloves, safety
shoes, etc.
• Before use, remove all nails and other
metal objects from the workpiece.
• Make sure that the workpiece is prop-
erly supported or fixed.
• Do not use the machine without the
guard.
• Inspect the saw blade before each use.
Do not use saw blades which are bent,
cracked, or otherwise damaged.
• Make sure that the saw blade is prop-
erly mounted.
• Only use saw blades that are suitable
for use with the machine.
• Only use saw blades with the correct
dimensions.
• Do not use other accessories than saw
blades.
• Do not use saw blades made of HSS
steel.
• Do not use the machine on workpieces
requiring a maximum sawing depth that
exceeds the maximum sawing depth of
the saw blade.
• Hold the machine by the insulated grip-
ping surfaces where the saw blade may

contact hidden wiring or the mains
cable. If the saw blade contacts a 'live'
wire, the exposed metal parts of the
machine can also become 'live'. Risk of
electric shock.
• Let the machine run at no load in a safe
area after mounting the saw blade. If
the machine vibrates strongly, immedi-
ately switch off the machine, remove
the mains plug from the mains, and try
to solve the problem.
• Beware that the saw blade continues to
rotate for a short period after switching
off the machine. Do not attempt to
bring the saw blade to a standstill
yourself.
Kickback
3.1
Kickback is the upward and backward
movement of the saw blade when the saw
blade unexpectedly touches an object.
Securely hold the machine during use. Keep
your attention focused on the operation.
Kickback is usually caused by:
• unintentionally touching hard objects or
materials with the rotating saw blade;
• a blunt saw blade;
• a saw blade that is not properly
mounted;
• sawing into a previous cut;
• a lack of attention to the operation;
• an unstable stance.
4. Electrical safety
Always check that the voltage of
the power supply corresponds to
the voltage on the rating plate.
• Do not use the machine if the mains
cable or the mains plug is damaged.
• Only use extension cables that are suit-
able for the power rating of the machine
with a minimum thickness of 1.5 mm
If you use a extension cable reel, always
fully unroll the cable.
5. Before the first use
Remove the machine and all accessories
from the package. Keep the packaging
materials out of the reach of small children.
There is a danger of suffocation!
