before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly

maintained power tools.

f) Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly

maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less

likely to bind and are easier to control.

g) Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc., in

accordance with these instructions, taking into

account the working conditions and the work to be

performed. Use of the power tool for operations dierent

from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

5) SERVICE

a) 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 JIG SAWS

GENERAL

• Always check that the supply voltage is the same as the

voltage indicated on the nameplate of the tool (tools with

a rating of 230V or 240V can also be connected to a

220V supply)

• Check the functioning of the tool before each use and, in

case of a defect, have it repaired immediately by a

qualied person; never open the tool yourself

• Do not work materials containing asbestos (asbestos

is considered carcinogenic)

• This tool should not be used by people under the age of

16 years

• The noise level when working can exceed 85 dB(A); wear

ear protection

• Wear protective goggles when working with materials

which produce chips

• Dust from material such as paint containing lead, some

wood species, minerals and metal may be harmful

(contact with or inhalation of the dust may cause allergic

reactions and/or respiratory diseases to the operator or

bystanders); wear a dust mask and work with a dust

extraction device when connectable

• Certain kinds of dust are classied as carcinogenic (such

as oak and beech dust) especially in conjunction with

additives for wood conditioning; wear a dust mask and

work with a dust extraction device when connectable

• Follow the dust-related national requirements for the

materials you want to work with

• Use completely unrolled and safe extension cords with a

capacity of 16 Amps (U.K. 13 Amps)

• Always disconnect plug from power source before

making any adjustment or changing any accessory

BEFORE USE

• Remove all obstacles on top of as well as underneath the

cutting path before you start cutting

• Avoid damage that can be caused by screws, nails and

other elements in your workpiece; remove them before

you start working

• Secure the workpiece (a workpiece clamped with

clamping devices or in a vice is held more securely than

by hand)

DURING USE

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,

when performing an operation where the cutting

accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own

cord (a cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may

make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and

could give the operator an electric shock)

• Always keep the cord away from moving parts of the tool;

direct the cord to the rear, away from the tool

• If the cord is damaged or cut through while working, do

not touch the cord, but immediately disconnect the plug

• Never use the tool when cord is damaged; have it

replaced by a qualied person

• In case of electrical or mechanical malfunction,

immediately switch o the tool and disconnect the plug

• Keep hands away from the saw blade while the tool is in

use

ACCESSORIES

• SKIL can assure awless functioning of the tool only

when original accessories are used

• Do not use a saw blade which is cracked, deformed or dull

OUTDOOR USE

• When used outdoors, connect the tool via a fault current

(FI) circuit breaker with a triggering current of 30 mA

maximum, and only use an extension cord which is

intended for outdoor use and equipped with a

splashproof coupling-socket

AFTER USE

• When you put away the tool, switch o the motor and

ensure that all moving parts have come to a complete

standstill

WHEN CONNECTING NEW 3-PIN PLUG (U.K. ONLY):

• Do not connect the blue (= neutral) or brown (= live) wire

• If for any reason the old plug is cut o the cord of this tool,

it must be disposed of safely and not left unattended

USE

• On/o 4

• Switch locking for continuous use 5
