c. Disconnect the plug from the power source before
making any adjustments, changing accessories, or
storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures
reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and
do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool
or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power
tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power tools
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly
maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less
likely to bind and are easier to control.
g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc.,
in accordance with these instructions and in the
manner intended for the particular type of power
tool, taking into account the working conditions and
the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for
operations different from those intended could result in a
hazardous situation.
5. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts. This
will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional safety rules for reciprocating saws
• Always remove the plug from the mains socket before
making any adjustments or maintenance, including
changing the blade.
• When operating the saw, use safety equipment including
safety goggles or shield, ear protection, dust mask and
protective clothing including safety gloves.
• Ensure that the lighting is adequate.
• Keep the area free of tripping hazards.
• Do not let anyone under the age of 18 years operate this
saw.
• Always stand to one side when operating the saw.
• Never use a cracked or distorted saw blade. Only use
sharp blades.
• When cutting round wood, use clamps that prevent the
work piece from turning on both sides of the blade.
• Never use your hands to remove sawdust, chips or waste
close by the blade.
• Use only blades as recommended.
• Rags, cloths, cord and string and the like should never be
left around the work area.
• Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the work piece and remove all
nails and other foreign objects before beginning sawing.
• Support the work properly.
• Never reach over the blade to remove waste or off cuts.
• Do not attempt to free a jammed blade before first
switching off the machine.
• Do not slow or stop a blade with a piece of wood. Let the
blade come to rest naturally.
• If you are interrupted when operating the saw, complete
the process and switch off before looking up.
• Periodically check that all nuts, bolts and other fixings are
properly tightened.
• Always hold the saw on parts that are insulated. If you
accidentally cut into hidden wiring or the saw’s own cable,
the metal parts of the saw will become “live”.
• Never saw near combustible liquids or gases.
The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose.
Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will
be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the
manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury
resulting from such cases of misuse.
