Laser Safety
The laser used in this device is a Class 2 laser with maximum power of ≤1mW and a wavelength
of 650nm .
These lasers do not normally present an optical hazard, although staring at the beam may cause
flash blindness.
WARNING: Avoid direct eye contact.
A hazard may exist if you deliberately stare into the beam, please observe all safety rules as follows:
• The laser shall be used and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions
• DO NOT switch on the laser light until the tool is ready to cut
• Never aim the beam at any person, and particularly not into the eyes of any person or animal, or
any object other than the workpiece
• Always ensure the laser beam is aimed at a sturdy workpiece without reflective surfaces. i.e. wood
or rough-coated surfaces are acceptable. Reflective sheet steel or similar is not suitable for laser
use as the reflective surface could direct the beam back at the operator
• DD NOT change the laser light assembly . Repairs must only be carried out by the laser
manufacturer or an authorised agent . Do NOT exchange with a different type of laser
WARNING: Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified
herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure .
Please refer to the relevant EN standards, EN60825-1/A1:2002 for more
information on Lasers.
Cutting Tool Safety
Use the correct cutting tool
• •
Ensure the cutting tool is suitable for the job. Do not assume a tool is suitable
without checking the product literature before use
Protect your eyes
• Always wear appropriate eye protection when using cutting tools
• Spectacles are not designed to offer any protection when using this product; normal lenses are
not impact resistant and could shatter
Protect your hearing
• Always wear suitable hearing protection when tool noise exceeds 85dB
Protect your breathing
• Ensure that yourself, and others around you, wear suitable dust masks
Be aware of others around you
• It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that other people in the vicinity of the work area
are not exposed to dangerous noise or dust and are also provided with suitable protective
equipment
Hidden objects
• Inspect the workpiece and remove all nails and other embedded objects before cutting
• Do not attempt to cut material that contains embedded objects unless you know that the cutting
tool fitted to your machine is suitable for the job
• Walls may conceal wiring and piping, car body panels may conceal fuel lines, and long grass may
conceal stones and glass . Always check the work area thoroughly before proceeding
Beware of projected waste
• In some situations, waste material may be projected at speed from the cutting tool. It is the user's
responsibility to ensure that other people in the work area are protected from the possibility of
projected waste
Fitting cutting tools
• Ensure cutting tools are correctly and securely fitted and check that wrenches / adjusters are
removed prior to use
• Only use cutting tools recommended for your machine
• Do not attempt to modify cutting tools
Beware of heat
• Cutting tools and workpieces may become hot in use . Do not attempt to change tools until they
have been allowed to cool completely
Control dust / swarf
• Do not allow dust or swarf to build up. Sawdust is a fire hazard, and some metal swarf is
explosive
• Be especially careful when cutting wood and metal . Sparks from metal cutting are a common
cause of wood dust fires
• Where possible, use a dust extraction system to ensure a safer working environment

Intended Use
Variable speed, pendulum action, laser guided jigsaw for light to medium duty cutting tasks for
wood, plastic and thin sheet metal (when using appropriate blades) .
Unpacking Your Tool
• Carefully unpack and inspect your tool . Fully familiarise yourself with all its features and
functions
• Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good condition . If any parts are missing or
damaged, have such parts replaced before attempting to use this tool
Before Use
WARNING: Ensure the tool is disconnected from the power supply before attaching or
changing any accessories, or making any adjustments.
Fitting a blade
• Always check that a suitable blade is selected for the job that is to be done (refer to the blade
manufacturers information before use)
• Only fit blades that are in perfect condition. Blunt, bent and cracked blades should be discarded
• Invert the jigsaw, lift the Guard (10)
• Pull forward the Blade Lock Lever (9) and insert the blade, so that it rests against the guide roller
Note: ALWAYS apply a lubricant between the blade and the roller, if you plan on cutting metal or
other hard materials .
• Release the Blade Locking Lever (9) and pull firmly on the blade to make sure it is secure
Connecting to a dust extraction system
• This jigsaw is equipped with a Dust Extraction Port (4). Connecting the tool to a vacuum cleaner
or workshop dust extraction system is the preferred method of dust extraction
• If vacuum dust extraction is unavailable, you must fit a generic dust bag (not included)
WARNING: Take extra care when cutting some woods—beech, oak, mahogany, teak—because
the dust produced is toxic and can cause extreme reactions . Always wear appropriate respiratory
protection .
WARNING: DO NOT use a dust bag when cutting metal . Hot metal particles and sparks could ignite
residual wood dust, or cause the bag to catch fire. Always connect the jigsaw to a workshop dust
extraction system when cutting metal. Always clean the tool THOROUGHLY when switching from
cutting wood to cutting metal, and vice versa .
