Safety Warnings for Jigsaws

 Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when

performing an operation where the cutting accessory

may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting

a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power

tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

 Keep hands away from the sawing range. Do not reach

under the workpiece. Contact with the saw blade can

lead to injuries.

 Apply the machine to the workpiece only when

switched on. Otherwise there is danger of kickback when

the cutting tool jams in the workpiece.

 Pay attention that the base plate 7 rests securely on

the material while sawing. A jammed saw blade can

break or lead to kickback.

 When the cut is completed, switch off the machine and

then pull the saw blade out of the cut only after it has

come to a standstill. In this manner you can avoid kick-

back and can place down the machine securely.

 Use only undamaged saw blades that are in perfect con-

dition. Bent or dull saw blades can break, negatively influ-

ence the cut, or lead to kickback.

 Do not brake the saw blade to a stop by applying side

pressure after switching off. The saw blade can be dam-

aged, break or cause kickback.

 Use appropriate detectors to determine if utility lines

are hidden in the work area or call the local utility compa-

ny for assistance. Contact with electric lines can lead to fire

and electric shock. Damaging a gas line can lead to explo-

sion. Penetrating a water line causes property damage.

 Secure the workpiece. A workpiece clamped with clamp-

ing devices or in a vice is held more secure than by hand.

 Always wait until the machine has come to a complete

stop before placing it down. The tool insert can jam and

lead to loss of control over the power tool.

 Before any work on the machine itself (e. g. mainte-

nance, tool change, etc.) as well as during transport

and storage, remove the battery from the power tool.

There is danger of injury when unintentionally actuating

the On/Off switch.

 Do not open the battery. Danger of short-circuiting.

Protect the battery against heat, e. g., against

continuous intense sunlight, fire, water, and

moisture. Danger of explosion.

 In case of damage and improper use of the battery, va-

pours may be emitted. Ventilate the area and seek

medical help in case of complaints. The vapours can irri-

tate the respiratory system.

 Use the battery only in conjunction with your Bosch

power tool. This measure alone protects the battery

against dangerous overload.

 The battery pack can be damaged by pointed objects

such as nails or screwdrivers or by force applied exter-

nally. An internal short circuit can occur and the battery

pack can burn, smoke, explode or overheat.
