uKeep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly main-

tained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

uUse the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in

accordance with these instructions, taking into ac-

count the working conditions and the work to be per-

formed. Use of the power tool for operations different

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

uKeep handles and grasping surfaces dry, clean and

free from oil and grease. Slippery handles and grasping

surfaces do not allow for safe handling and control of the

tool in unexpected situations.

Battery tool use and care

uRecharge only with the charger specified by the manu-

facturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of bat-

tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another

battery pack.

uUse power tools only with specifically designated bat-

tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a

risk of injury and fire.

uWhen 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 fire.

uUnder abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from

the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally oc-

curs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, addi-

tionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-

tery may cause irritation or burns.

uDo not use a battery pack or tool that is damaged or

modified. Damaged or modified batteries may exhibit

unpredictable behaviour resulting in fire, explosion or risk

of injury.

uDo not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or excess-

ive temperature. Exposure to fire or temperature above

130°C may cause explosion.

uFollow all charging instructions and do not charge the

battery pack or tool outside the temperature range

specified in the instructions. Charging improperly or at

temperatures outside the specified range may damage

the battery and increase the risk of fire.

Service

uHave 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.

uNever service damaged battery packs. Service of bat-

tery packs should only be performed by the manufacturer

or authorized service providers.

Safety instructions for jigsaws

uHold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,

when performing an operation where the cutting ac-

cessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory

contacting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of

the power tool "live" and could give the operator an elec-

tric shock.

uUse 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 un-

stable and may lead to loss of control.

uKeep hands away from the sawing area. Do not reach

under the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade can

lead to injuries.

uOnly bring the power tool into contact with the work-

piece when switched on. Otherwise there is danger of

kickback if the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.

uEnsure that the footplate always rests securely while

sawing. A jammed saw blade can break or lead to kick-

back.

uWhen 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.

uAlways wait until the power tool has come to a com-

plete stop before placing it down. The application tool

can jam and cause you to lose control of the power tool.

uUse only undamaged saw blades that are in perfect

condition. Bent or dull saw blades can break, negatively

influence the cut, or lead to kickback.

uDo not brake the saw blade to a stop by applying side

pressure after switching off. The saw blade can be dam-

aged, break or cause kickback.

uOnly use the power tool with the base plate. If you do

not use the base plate, you are at risk of not being able to

control the power tool.

uUse suitable detectors to determine if there are hid-

den supply lines or contact the local utility company

for assistance. Contact with electric cables can cause

fire and electric shock. Damaging gas lines can lead to ex-

plosion. Breaking water pipes causes property damage.

uIn case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-

pours may be emitted. The battery can set alight or ex-

plode. Ensure the area is well ventilated and seek medical

attention should you experience any adverse effects. The

vapours may irritate the respiratory system.

uDo not open the battery. There is a risk of short-circuit-

ing.

uThe battery can be damaged by pointed objects such

as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied externally.

An internal short circuit may occur, causing the battery to

burn, smoke, explode or overheat.

uOnly use the battery with products from the manufac-

turer. This is the only way in which you can protect the

battery against dangerous overload.

Protect the battery against heat, e.g. against

continuous intense sunlight, fire, dirt, water

and moisture. There is a risk of explosion and

short-circuiting.
