person using only identical replacement parts. This will
ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Additional power tool safety warnings
@
Warning! Additional safety warnings for jigsaws and
reciprocating saws
Hold the tool by the insulated gripping surfaces when
u
performing an operation where the cutting tool 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 shock the operator.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
u
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.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach
u
underneath the work piece for 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.
Keep blades sharp. Dull or damaged blades may cause
u
the saw to swerve or stall under pressure. Always use the
appropriate type of saw blade for the workpiece material
and type of cut.
When cutting pipe or conduit, make sure that they are free
u
from water, electrical wiring, etc.
Do not touch the workpiece or the blade immediately after
u
operating the tool. They can become very hot.
Be aware of hidden hazards, before cutting into walls,
u
floors or ceilings, check for the location of wiring and pipes.
The blade will continue to move after releasing the switch.
u
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
u
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.
The intended use is described in this instruction manual.
u
The use of any accessory or attachment or performance
of any operation with this tool other than those

Vibration
The declared vibration emission values stated in the technical
data and the declaration of conformity have been measured in
accordance with a standard test method provided by
EN 60745 and may be used for comparing one tool with
another. The declared vibration emission value may also be
used in a preliminary assessment of exposure.
Warning! The vibration emission value during actual use of
the power tool can differ from the declared value depending
on the ways in which the tool is used. The vibration level may
increase above the level stated.
When assessing vibration exposure to determine safety
measures required by 2002/44/EC to protect persons regularly
using power tools in employment, an estimation of vibration
exposure should consider, the actual conditions of use and the
way the tool is used, including taking account of all parts of the
operating cycle such as the times when the tool is switched off
and when it is running idle in addition to the trigger time.
