Operating Guides and Tips
Avoid overloading the jig saw. Do not
apply excessive pressure to the tool
while using. If the speed drops
abnormally, decrease pressure
immediately.
Ensure the safety of the workplace. Clear
the work area of all parts and debris
that may cause injury by flying
objects. Securely fix the object to be
worked on in a vise or otherwise
clamp to avoid injury. Do not attempt
to hold workpiece by hand.
Inspect the tool before use. Run the tool
free of the workpiece before using to
ensure all parts are running smooth-
ly and there are no abnormal sounds
or sparks. If any defect is found,
have unit serviced.
Know your work site. Take care to make
sure the material being worked on is
not supporting another structure, or
that there are no obstructions.
Before cutting into walls, check for
wires, other electrical hazards, or
plumbing which may be hidden in the
wall space.
Operating this equipment has the
potential to propel debris into the air
which can cause eye injury. Always
wear safety glasses or goggles when

safety glasses you wear meet the
appropriate standards of the American
National Standards Institute (ANSI).
