General Power Tool Safety Warnings
d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be
ejected from the battery, avoid contact.
If contact accidentally occurs, flush with
water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally
seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
e. Do not use a battery pack or tool that
is damaged or modified. Damaged or
modified batteries may exhibit unpredict-
able behavior resulting in fire, explosion or
risk of injury.
f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to
fire or excessive temperature. Exposure
to fire or temperature above 265 °F may
cause explosion.
Safety Rules for Cordless Reciprocating Saws
a. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping
surfaces, when performing an operation
where the cutting accessory may contact
hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contact-
ing 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 workpiece by
hand or against your body leaves it unsta-
ble and may lead to loss of control.
c. Do not drill, fasten or break into existing
walls or other blind areas where electri-
cal wiring may exist. If this situation is
unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit
breakers feeding this worksite.
d. 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.
e. Keep hands away from the area between
the gear housing and saw blade clamp
(plunger). The reciprocating blade clamp
(blade plunger) can pinch your fingers.
f. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent
blades can break easily or cause kickback.
g. Before starting to cut, turn tool "ON" and
allow the blade to come to full desired
speed. Tool can chatter or vibrate if blade

g. Follow all charging instructions and do
not charge the battery pack or tool out-
side 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.
6. Service
a. Have your power tool serviced by a quali-
fied repair person using only identical re-
placement parts. This will ensure that the
safety of the power tool is maintained.
b. Never service damaged battery packs.
Service of battery packs should only be
performed by the manufacturer or autho-
rized service providers.
speed is too slow at beginning of cut and
possibly kickback.
h. Always wear safety goggles or eye protec-
tion when using this tool. Use a dust mask
or respirator for applications which gen-
erate dust.
i. Secure material before cutting. Never
hold it in your hand or across legs. Small
or thin material may flex or vibrate with the
blade, causing loss of control.
j. Make certain all adjusting screws (knobs)
and the blade clamp are tight before
making a cut. Loose adjusting screws and
clamps can cause the tool or blade to slip
and loss of control may result.
k. When removing the blade from the tool
avoid contact with skin and use proper
protective gloves when grasping the
blade or accessory. Accessories may be
hot after prolonged use.
l. When using the utility hook always be
aware that the blade is exposed. Always
hang the tool in area where you or bystand-
ers cannot accidentally make contact with
the blade.
m. When operating the saw continuously
and for prolonged periods of time, the
gearbox may become hot to touch. To
reduce the risk of injury, wear protective
gloves during saw operation.
