General safety instructions

Warning! Read the following instructions carefully. The non-observance of these

instructions can result in electric shock, fire, and/or other serious injuries. The term

“electrical appliance” mentioned in all the warnings below refers to an electrical appliance

which plugs into electrical power (with an electric cable) or to an electrical appliance

(without wire) functioning with the help of a battery/batteries. Keep these instructions in a

safe place.

1) Work place

a. Always take care to keep your workspace clean and well lit. Badly arranged and dark

spaces can cause accidents.

b. Do not use the electrical appliance in environments with a risk of explosion, such as

in the presence of flammable liquids, gas, or particles. The electrical appliance

causes sparks which can ignite flammable substances.

c. Take care to keep away from children and others who could be distracting while using

the appliance. Distractions can make you lose control of the appliance.

2) Electric safety procedures

a. The plugs of the electrical appliance must be connected to the corresponding wall

sockets. Never modify the plugs in any way, doing so can cause electric shock. Do

not use adaptors which ground the electrical appliance.

b. Avoid direct contact with grounded surfaces like drains, radiators, cooking appliances

and refrigerators. The risk of electric shock increases if your body is in contact with

grounded surfaces.

c. Do not use electric tools in rainy or wet environments. If water gets into an electrical

appliance, the risk of electric shock will increase.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to transport, draw, or disconnect the

electrical appliance. Take care to keep the cord far away from heat sources, oils,

cutting edges, or moving parts. Damaged or intermingled cords increase the risk of

electric shock.

e. Only use a cord for outside use. The use of an outdoor cord reduces the risk of

electric shock. Always use the tool with a residual current circuit breaker.

a. Do not force the electrical appliance. Use the electrical appliance for its intended use

only. A correctly selected electrical appliance will ensure better work without a high

risk of danger.

b. Do not use the electrical appliance if the on/off switch does not function. An electrical

appliance which cannot be controlled by the switch is dangerous and must be

repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug of the power supply unit before carrying out adjustments,

changing accessories, or storing the electric appliance. These preventive safety

measures will reduce the risk of accidentally starting.

d. Store electrical appliance out of the reach of children and do not let any person not

familiarized with the tool or its instructions use the electrical appliance. Electrical

appliances are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e. Maintain the electrical appliance properly. Check the alignment and the sequence of

the moving parts for conditions which can affect the operation of the electrical

appliance. In the event of damage, send the electrical appliance for repair before re-

using it. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained electrical appliances.

f. Keep all cutting tools sharpened and clean. Cutting tools which are properly

maintained with sharpened blades are less likely to get blocked and are easier to

control.

g. Use the electrical appliance and its accessories, etc, in accordance with these

instructions for their intended use only. Failure to do so may result in injury. Take into

account the work conditions and the specific work which is to be carried out.

06 Topcraft

Do not use an electric tool without a properly functioning on/off switch.

i. Never leave an electrical tool (which is on) unattended. Always stop the tool and wait

until it is immobilized before moving away.

j. If the principal electrical cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a suitable cord. This

can be obtained from the manufacturer or from the manufacturer’s customer service.

The main electrical cord must be replaced by the manufacturer, customer service, or

a person having equivalent qualifications.

5) Using and looking after the battery tools

a. Ensure that the switch is in the “off” position before inserting the battery. Inserting a

battery into a tool which is turned “on” can cause accidents.

b. Recharge the battery only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger

adapted to a certain battery can cause a fire if used with a different battery.

c. Use each tool only with the battery designed for it. The use of any other battery can

cause injuries and fire.

d. When a battery is not in use, keep it away from metallic objects such as coins, keys,

nails, screws, and other small metal objects. A short-circuit between the terminals of

the battery can be the cause of burns or fire.

e. In extreme circumstances, liquid can spill out of the battery; avoid any contact. In the

event of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water. In the event of contact of the

liquid with the eyes, consult a doctor. Liquid which spills from a battery can cause

irritations or burns.

Topcraft 09

• Respect the authorized thickness maximum of materials.

• During the cutting of a wall or ground, make sure there are no electric cables in the

vicinity. Always hold the saw by its plastic body in order to avoid risk of electric shock

in the event of cutting an electric cable.

• Wait for the blade to completely stop before removing it from the material.

• Always lower the transparent protection during work.

Immediately stop the saw in the following cases:

• Defective switch.

• Abnormal sparks at engine level.

• Smoke or odor coming from a burning insulator.

Choice of a blade

The jigsaw is provided with three blades, each one having different teeth sizes. The profile

and the size of tooth vary according to the material to be cut. Fine teeth will give a regular

and precise cutting. Use a narrow profile if you wish to saw curves or, for example, cut out

figures.

To select the appropriate blade, proceed as follows:

• Initially test a blade with larger teeth.

• If you do not obtain a regular and precise cutting, test a thinner blade.

• For plastic, aluminum, and steel, always use a blade with fine teeth.

In general, you work more quickly, but with less precision, by using a blade with bigger

teeth than a blade with fine teeth. To obtain optimal results, always make sure that the

blade is well sharpened. This jigsaw is appropriate for all the saw blades commercially

available.

Assembly/Disassembly of a blade

Fig.2

During the assembly or the disassembly of the blade, the jigsaw should not be able to

start accidentally. It is thus important to withdraw the battery during this operation.

For the assembly of a blade, follow these instructions:

• Take the small hexagonal key provided and loosen the screws on the blade holder.

• Insert the chosen blade by pushing it in the bottom of its housing.

• Strongly tighten the screws, while ensuring that the blade is positioned correctly

against the guide roller.

For disassembling, proceed in reverse way of the assembly. After the assembly of a

blade, but before using the tool, turn it on for approximately 30 seconds. Take care to stay

clear of the blade. If the speed slows or abnormal vibrations occur, make sure the blade is

not defective and/or it is assembled correctly.

Periodically lubricate the guiding rollers, particularly during the cutting of synthetic material

or metal sheets.

10 Topcraft

Adjustment of the cut angle

Fig.3

The adjustment of the cut angle must be done while the battery is disconnected.

It is possible to perform cuts at an angle of 0° to 45° by inclining the table of support to

the right or left-hand side.

To regulate the slope:

Using the Allen wrench provided, loosen the six sided screws located under the base,

then push the base forward and make it swivel to the right or to the left according to the

desired angle, then re-tighten the screws. The following angles are indicated on the scale

printed on the base: 0°, 15°, 30°, and 45°.

Adjustment of the pendular motion

The adjustment of the pendular motion must be done while the battery is disconnected.

The pendular motion gives the tool a higher degree of accuracy at the time of the cut and

improves the output. The blade undergoes a double movement: movement from top to

bottom and pendular from the front to the back.

To modify the pendular motion:

press on the selector placed on the left side of the machine, turning it to the desired

position. The adjustment of the pendular motion depends on many factors: speed,

materials, type of cut, etc. It is recommended to test the cut.

The following adjustments are recommended:

• Position 0: Metals; pressed or curved materials.

• Position 1: Plastics and plywood.

• Position 2 or 3: Tender wood and panels of masonry such as plasterboards.

Starting

Before connecting the battery, check the assembly of the blade and the base of the

support carefully. Also check the operation of the On/Off switch: it must return freely to the

off position as soon as it is released. To start the jigsaw, press initially on the safety button

on the left side of the handle, then on the On/Off switch. To stop, release the switch.

Using recommendation

After starting the saw, wait until it reaches its normal mode, then place the base of support

on the part to be cut out, and push the saw forwards gradually. It is advised to trace a line

where you want to cut in order to obtain a straight cut. In the case of curved cuts, adopt a

slower speed of cutting.

The saw is provided with a dust extractor entry. For your health, we recommend you to

connect a system of aspiration to it. That will also make it possible to release the line of

cut during work.

While working, firmly put the base of support of the saw on the part to be cut

out in order to avoid rupturing the blade.
