Safety
Read this manual carefully before starting or using the
device. Always store the manual in the immediate vicinity
of the device or its site of use!
Warning
Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may
result in electric shock, fire and/ or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future
reference.
This appliance can be used by children aged from
8years and above and persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities or lack of experience
and knowledge if they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance in a safe
way and understand the hazards involved.
Children shall not play with the appliance. Cleaning and
user maintenance shall not be made by children
without supervision.
The term power tool used in the safety warnings refers to both
mains-operated and battery-powered electric tools (with/
without power cable).
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Work area
safety
•Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark
areas invite accidents.
•Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres,
such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or
dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust
or fumes.
•Keep children and bystanders away while operating a
power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Electrical
safety
•Power tool or power adapter plugs must match the
outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use
any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce
risk of electric shock.
•Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces,
such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators.
There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is
earthed or grounded.
•Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of
electric shock.
•Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying,
pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away
from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged
or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
•When operating a power tool outdoors, use an
extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord
suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.
•If operating a power tool in a damp location is
unavoidable, use a residual current device(RCD)
protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk of
electric shock.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Personal
safety
•Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common
sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a
power tool while you are tired or under the influence of
drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention
while operating power tools may result in serious personal
injury.
Use personal protective equipment. Always
wear eye protection. Protective equipment such
as protective mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard
hat, hearing protection or tight-fitting protective
clothing used for appropriate conditions will
reduce personal injuries.
•Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in
the off-position before connecting to power source
and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool.
Carrying power tools with your finger on the switch or
energising power tools that have the switch on invites
accidents.
• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning
the power tool on. A wrench or a key left attached to a
rotating part of the power tool may result in personal
injury.
•Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at
all times. This enables better control of the power tool in
unexpected situations.
•Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or
jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away
from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long hair
can be caught in moving parts.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Power tool
use and care
•Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool
for your application. The correct power tool will do the
job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.
•Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it
on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with
the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.
•Disconnect the plug from the power source and / or
the battery pack from the power tool before making
any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing
power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the
risk of starting the power tool accidentally.
•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.
•Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any
other condition that may affect the power tool’s
operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly
maintained power tools.
• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained
cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to
bind and are easier to control.
•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.
General Power Tool Safety Warnings – Service
•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 warnings for reciprocating saws
•Hold the power tool by its insulated gripping surfaces
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting a "live" wire may make exposed metal parts of the
power tool "live" and could give the operator an electric
shock.
•Use clamps or another practical way to secure and
support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the
workpiece by your hand or against the body leaves it
unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Device-specific safety warnings for sabre saws
• Use appropriate detection equipment to track down
concealed supply lines or consult the local utility
companies. Contact with electrical lines may result in fire
and electric shock. Damaging a gas line may lead to an
explosion. Penetrating a water line causes property
damage and may cause an electric shock.
•Vibrations can be harmful to the human hand-arm
system. Keep the vibration exposure time to a minimum.
•Clean the shank of the saw blade before inserting it. A
dirty shank cannot be fastened securely.
•Check the saw blade for tight fit. A loose saw blade
could fall out and injure you.
•Before switching on the power tool, ensure that the
insertion tool can move freely. If the device is switched
on with a jammed insertion tool, the resulting forces can
be extreme causing the device to kick out sideways.
•Do not work on moistened material or moist surfaces.
•Only hold the power tool against the workpiece when
the tool is switched on and running. Otherwise there is
a risk of kickbacks.
•Make sure that the guide shoe is positioned securely
on the contact face during sawing. A jammed saw blade
could break or cause a kickback.
•Keep your hands out of the sawing area. Do not reach
underneath the workpiece. Risk of injury upon contact with
the saw blade.
•Keep your hands away from lifting rod and quick-
release chuck. Crushing hazard upon contact with these
components.
•Ensure sufficient ventilation.
•Regularly check the quick-release chuck for wear or
damage.
•Only use intact, flawless saw blades. Bent and blunt
saw blades could break or cause a kickback.
•Do not attempt to slow down the saw blade movement
by pressing against the blade from the side once the
device is switched off. The saw blade could be damaged,
break or cause a kickback.
•Switch off the power tool when your operation is
completed, but do not remove the saw blade from the
kerf until it has come to a standstill. This serves to
avoid a kickback, then you can put the power tool down
safely.
