When using the Cordless Jigsaw, always maintain a firm grip on the tool with
both hands. Never put your hands or feet in the sanding area. Do not grasp the
tool or place your hands too close to the blade. Keep your hands well away from
the sanding disk. Never reach underneath the tool while the sanding disk is in
motion. Do not use your legs or feet to stabilize the work piece.
Position yourself to avoid being caught between the tool or side handle and
walls or posts. Should the socket or bit become bound in the work, the reac-
tion torque of the tool could crush your hand or leg.
Always hold the tool by its insulated gripping surfaces when cutting in areas
that may contain hidden live wiring. If the blade makes contact with a live
wire, the metal parts of this tool may conduct enough electricity to seriously
shock the user.
Contact with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool
“live” and shock the operator. Do not cut 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
.
Do not run the Cordless Jigsaw while carrying it at your side. A moving blade
could become entangled with clothing and injury may result.
Disconnect the battery pack from tool and place the switch in the locked or
“OFF” position before making any assembly adjustments, changing acces-
sories, performing any inspection, maintenance or cleaning procedures. Such
preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.
Do not use the Cordless Jigsaw if it has been damaged, left outdoors in the
rain, snow, wet or damp environments, or immersed in liquid.
Do not use dull or damaged blades.
Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with
sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.
When restarting a saw in the workpiece, check that teeth are not engaged in
the material.
Keep the handle of the Cordless Jigsaw dry, clean, and free from oil and
grease.
Be extra careful when cutting in high or hard-to-reach locations. Be on the
lookout for hidden wires and falling debris.
Maintain labels and nameplates on the Cordless Jigsaw. These carry impor-
tant information. If unreadable or missing, contact Alltrade for a replacement.
