SAFETY INFORMATION
Battery Tool Use and Care
• Recharge only with the charger specied by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable
for one type of battery pack may create a risk of re when used with another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any other
battery packs may create a risk of injury and re.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like paper
clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may
cause burns or a re.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If
contact accidentally occurs, ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek
medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
Service
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied repair person using only identical
replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Specic Safety Warnings for Reciprocating Saw
• Hold the power tool by its insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. A cutting
accessory in contact with 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 work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss
of control.
• Always wait until the tool has come to a complete stop before placing it down. The tool insert
can jam and lead to loss of control over the power tool.
• When working with the power tool, always hold it rmly with both hands and provide a
secure stance. The power tool is guided more securely with both hands.
• Always remove the battery pack before changing the saw blade and/or adjusting the saw
base.
• The saw blade must be securely locked in its holder. Check that it has been securely seated
before use.
• Make certain that all adjusting levers and the blade holder are tight before making a cut.
Loose adjusting levers and holders can cause the tool or blade to slip; loss of control may
result.
• Never touch the saw blade after immediate use. It may be hot after prolonged use.
• Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a dust mask or
respirator or connect the tool to an external dust vacuum if cutting generates a great amount
of dust.
• 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.
• Do not use dull or damaged saw blades and accessories.
