Safety Rules for Cordless Reciprocating Saws

Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting

tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

tools with sharp cutting edge are less likely

to bind and are easier to control.

Check for misalignment or binding of

moving parts, breakage of parts, and any

other condition that may affect the tool's

operation. If damaged, have the tool

serviced before using. Many accidents are

caused by poorly maintained tools.

Use only accessories that are recom-

mended by the manufacturer for your

model. Accessories that may be suitable for

one tool may create a risk of injury when

used on another tool.

Service

Tool service must be performed only by

qualified repair personnel. Service or

maintenance performed by unqualified

personnel may result in a risk of injury.

When servicing a tool, use only identical

replacement parts. Follow instructions in

the Maintenance section of this manual.

Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow

Maintenance Instructions may create a risk

of shock or injury.

Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces

when performing an operation where the

cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or

its own cord. Contact with a "live" wire will

make exposed metal parts of the tool "live"

and shock the operator. Do not drill, fasten

or break into existing walls or other blind

areas where electrical wiring may exist. If this

situation is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses

or circuit breakers feeding this worksite.

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.

Keep hands from between the gear

housing and saw blade clamp (plunger).

The reciprocating blade clamp (blade

plunger) can pinch your fingers.

Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent

blades can break easily or cause kickback.

Before starting to cut, turn tool "ON" and

allow the blade to come to full speed. Tool

can chatter or vibrate if blade speed is too

slow at beginning of cut and possibly

kickback.

Always wear safety goggles or eye

protection when using this tool. Use a

dust mask or respirator for applications,

which generate dust.

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.

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.

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.

Some dust created by

power sanding, sawing,

grinding, drilling, and other construction

activities contains chemicals known to

cause cancer, birth defects or other

reproductive harm. Some examples of

these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead-based paints,

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement

and other masonry products, and

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-

treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies,

depending on how often you do this type of

work. To reduce your exposure to these

chemicals: work in a well ventilated area,

and work with approved safety equipment,

such as those dust masks that are specially

designed to filter out microscopic particles.

Battery/Charger

Before using battery charger, read all

instructions and cautionary markings on

(1) battery charger, (2) battery pack, and

(3) product using battery.

Use only the charger which accompanied

your product or direct replacement as

listed in the catalog or this manual. Do not

substitute any other charger. Use only Bosch

approved chargers with your product. See

Functional Description and Specifications.
