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 ac-

cordance 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 in-

tended could result in a hazardous situation .

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 JIGSAWS

•  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 cut-

ting tool jams in the workpiece .

•  Pay attention that the base plate 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 in-

fluence 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 suitable detectors to determine if utility lines are hid-

den in the work area or call the local utility company for 

assistance . Contact with electric lines can lead to fire and 

electric shock . Damaging a gas line can lead to explosion . 

Penetrating a water line causes property damage or may 

cause an electric shock .

•  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, pull the mains 

plug .

•  Clean the shank of the saw blade before inserting it . An 

unclean shank cannot be fastened securely .

•  Check the tight seating of the saw blade . A loose saw 

blade can fall out and lead to injuries .

•  The saw blade should not be longer than required for the 

intended cut . Use a narrow saw blade when sawing tight 

curves .

•  If the saw blade is wedged or jammed when removing, 

press the saw blade holder lightly toward the front (ap-

prox . 2 mm) .

•  Dusts from materials such as lead-containing coatings, 

some wood types, minerals and metal can be harmful to 

one’s health and cause allergic reactions, lead to respira-

tory infections and/or cancer . Materials containing asbes-

tos may only be worked by specialists .

•  As far as possible, use a dust extraction system suitable 

for the material .

•  Provide for good ventilation of the working place .

•  It is recommended to wear a P2 filter-class respirator .

•  Observe the relevant regulations in your country for the 

materials to be worked .

•  Prevent dust accumulation at the workplace . Dusts can 

easily ignite .

•  Observe correct mains voltage! The voltage of the power 

source must agree with the voltage specified on the 

nameplate of the machine . Power tools marked with 230 

V can also be operated with 220 V .

•  To save energy, only switch the power tool on when us-

ing it .

•  The contact protector attached to the casing prevents 

accidental touching of the saw blade during the working 

procedure and may not be removed .

•  Before sawing in wood, particle boards, building materi-

als etc ., check for foreign objects, such as nails, screws, 

etc . and remove them as required .

•  Plunge cuts may only be applied to soft materials, such 

as wood, gypsum board, etc . For plunge cuts, use only 

short saw blades .

•  The sliding shoe can prevent the surface from being 

scratched . The splinter guard can prevent fraying of the 

surface while sawing wood . Do not use the splinter guard 

for mitre cuts .

•  Adapt the settings of your power tool to the respective 

application . For example, reduce the stroke rate and or-

bital action when cutting metal or for tight curved cuts .

•  For long and straight cuts in thick wood (>40 mm), the 

cutting line can become inaccurate . In this case, using a 

circular saw is recommended to achieve accurate cuts .

•  In extreme conditions, always use dust extraction as far 

as possible . Blow out ventilation slots frequently and 

install a portable residual current device (PRCD) . When 

working metals, conductive dust can settle in the interior 

of the power tool . The total insulation of the power tool 

can be impaired .

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Make sure that the machine is not live when carrying 

out maintenance work on the motor .

• 

Regularly clean the machine housing with a 

soft cloth, preferably after each use . Keep the ventilation 

slots free from dust and dirt .If the dirt does not come 

off use a soft cloth moistened with soapy water . Never 

use solvents such as petrol, alcohol, ammonia water, etc . 

These solvents may damage the plastic parts .

•  Lubricate the guide roller occasionally with a drop of oil .

•  Should a fault occur, e .g . after wear of a part, please con-

tact your local BORT GLOBAL LIMITED dealer .
