Service
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.
Safety instructions for jigsaws
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding
the workpiece by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Keep hands away from the sawing area. Do not reach under the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade can
lead to injuries.
Only bring the power tool into contact with the workpiece when switched on. Otherwise there is danger of
kickback if the cutting tool jams in the work piece.
Ensure that the footplate always rests securely while sawing. A jammed saw blade can break or lead to
kickback.
When the cut is completed, switch off the power tool and then pull the saw blade out of the cut only
after it has come to a standstill. In this manner you can avoid kickback and can place down the power tool
securely.
Always wait until the power tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The application tool
can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.
Use only undamaged saw blades that are in perfect condition. Bent or dull saw blades can break,
negatively influence the cut, or lead to kickback.
Do not brake the saw blade to a stop by applying side pressure after switching off. The saw blade can be
damaged, break or cause kickback.
Use suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hidden in the work area or call the local utility
company for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and electric shock. Damaging a gas line
can lead to explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may cause an electric shock.

Your product is fitted with an BS 1363/A approved electric plug with internal fuse (ASTA approved to BS 1362). If the
plug is not suitable for your socket outlets, it should be cut off and an appropriate plug fitted in its place by an
authorised customer service agent. The replacement plug should have the same fuse rating as the original plug.
The severed plug must be disposed of to avoid a possible shock hazard and should never be inserted into a mains
socket elsewhere.
