Safety Rules for Cordless Jigsaws
Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the
cutting tool may contact hidden wiring.
Contact with a "live" wire will make exposed
metal parts of the tool "live" and shock the
operator. Do not drill, fasten or break into
existing walls or other blind areas where
electrical wiring may exist. If this situation is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
Disconnect battery pack from tool or
place the switch in the locked or off
position before making any assembly,
adjustments or changing accessories.
Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Never leave the trigger locked "ON".
Before inserting the battery pack, check
that the trigger lock is "OFF".
Accidental
start-ups could cause injury.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do
not reach under the material being cut.
The proximity of the blade to your hand is
hidden from your sight.
Keep hands from between the gear
housing and saw blade holder.
The
reciprocating blade holder can pinch your
fingers.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent
blade can break easily or cause kickback.
Before starting to cut, turn tool "ON" and
allow the blade to come to full speed.
Tool can chatter or vibrate if blade speed is
too slow at beginning of cut and possibly
kickback.
Secure material before cutting. Never
hold it in your hand or across legs.
Small
or thin material may flex or vibrate with the
blade, causing loss of control.
Make certain all adjusting screws and the
blade holder are tight before making a
cut.
Loose adjusting screws and holders
can cause the tool or blade to slip and loss of
control may result.
When removing the blade from the tool
avoid contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the
blade or accessory.
Accessories may be
hot after prolonged use.
Some dust created by
power sanding, sawing,
grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other
reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead-based paints,
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement
and other masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-
treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies,
depending on how often you do this type of
work. To reduce your exposure to these
chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and
work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
