d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children
and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power
tool or these instructions to operate the power
tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands
of untrained users.
e. Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment
or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the power
tools operation. If damaged, have the power tool
repaired 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 different
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.
6. Electrical safety
Your tool is double insulated; therefore no earth
wire is required. Always check that the main voltage
corresponds to the voltage on the rating plate.
Warning! If the power cord is damaged, it must
be replaced by the manufacturer, authorized
BLACK+DECKER Service Center or an equally
qualified person in order to avoid damage or
injury. If the power cord is replaced by an equally
qualified person, but not authorized by
BLACK+DECKER, the warranty will not be valid.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS
FOR JIGSAWS AND RECIPROCATING SAWS
a. Hold 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.
b. 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.
c. Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach
underneath the work piece any reason. Do not insert
fingers or thumb into the vicinity of the reciprocating
blade and blade clamp. Do not stabilize the saw by
gripping the shoe.
d. Keep blades sharp. Dull or damaged blades may
cause the saw to swerve or stall under pressure.
Always use the appropriate type of saw blade
for the workpiece material and type of cut.
e. When cutting pipe or conduit, make sure that they
are free from water, electrical wiring, etc.
f.
Do not touch the workpiece or the blade
immediately after operating the tool.
They can become very hot.
g. Be aware of hidden hazards, before cutting into
walls, floors or ceilings, check for the location
of wiring and pipes.
h. The blade will continue to move after releasing
the switch. Always switch the tool off and wait for
the saw blade to come to a complete standstill before
putting the tool down.
Warning! Contact with, or inhalation of dusts arising
from cutting applications may endanger the health
of the operator and possible bystanders. Wear a dust
mask specifically designed for protection against dust and
fumes and ensure that persons within or entering the work
area are also protected.
