SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING! Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions

listed below, may result in electric shock, ﬁre and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

1. WORK AREA

a) Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite acci-

dents.

b) Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ﬂammable liquids, gases or dusts. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust

or fumes.

c) Keep by-standers, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Dis-

tractions can cause you to lose control.

2. ELECTRICAL SAFETY

a) A battery operated tool with integral batteries or a separate battery pack must

be recharged only with the speciﬁed charger for the battery. A charger that may be

suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of ﬁre when used with another battery.

b) Use battery operated tool only with speciﬁcally designated battery pack. Use of

any other batteries may create a risk of ﬁre.

3. PERSONAL SAFETY

a) Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a

power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the inﬂuence of drugs, alcohol,

or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious

personal injury.

b) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep

your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or

long hair can be caught in moving parts. Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and

grease. Rubber gloves and non-skid footwear are recommended when working outdoors.

c) Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is in the locked or “OFF” position before

inserting battery pack. Carrying tools with your ﬁnger on the switch or inserting the bat-

tery pack into a tool with the switch “ON” invites accidents.

d) Remove all adjusting keys and wrenches. Make a habit of checking that adjusting keys,

wrenches, etc. are removed from the tool before turning it “ON”.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and

balance enable better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

f) Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,

hard hat, or hearing protection may be used for appropriate conditions.

g) Keep hands away from all cutting edges and moving parts.

h) If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facili-

ties, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of these devices can reduce

dust-related hazards.

4. TOOL USE AND CARE

a) Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the work-piece to a

stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead

to loss of control.

b) Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will

0302

NA-WT545-M-051115.indd 2 2005-11-15 17:10:30

Cordless Jigsaw WT545

do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Excessive force only causes

operator fatigue, increased wear and reduced control.

c) Do not use tool if switch does not turn it “ON” or “OFF”. A tool that cannot be con-

trolled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

d) Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the “LOCKED” or “OFF”

position before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the

tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

e) Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

f) When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects like: pa-

per clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects that can make a

connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may

cause sparks, burns, or a ﬁre.

g) Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained

tools, with sharp cutting edges, are less likely to bind and easier to control.

h) 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 ser-

viced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

i) Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model.

Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may create a risk of injury when used on an-

other tool.

j) Use the right tool. Do not force the tool or attachment to do a job for which it was not

designed

5. SERVICE

a) Tool service must be performed only by qualiﬁed repair personnel. Service or main-

tenance performed by unqualiﬁed personnel could result in a risk of injury.

b) 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 fol-

low Maintenance Instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR CORDLESS JIGSAWS

WARNING! Failure to follow these rules may result in serious personal injury.

1) Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the

cutting tools 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.

2) Always keep your hands away from cutting area. Do not reach under the material being

cut because the nearness of the blade to your hand is hidden from your sight.

3) Always wear eye protectors when using tool. Use a dust mask or respirator for ap-

plications which generate dust.

4) Do not use dull or damaged blades. Sharp blades will do the job better and safer. Bent

blades can break easily or cause kickback.

5) The base plate must always be held ﬁrmly against the material being cut to reduce

saw vibration, blade jumping and blade breakage.

6) Never stop the cutting blade by applying side pressure to the blade.

7) Only withdraw the blade from the cut when the blade has stopped moving.

8) Do not reach underneath the work-piece while cutting. The guard cannot protect you

0302

NA-WT545-M-051115.indd 3 2005-11-15 17:10:30

Cordless Jigsaw WT545

from the blade below the work-piece.

9) Your jigsaw is a hand-held tool, do not clamp your jigsaw.

10) Before cutting, check the cutting line is free of nails, screws, etc.

11) Always check walls, ﬂoors and ceilings to avoid hidden power cable and pipes.

12) Do not cut material containing asbestos.

13) Be aware that this tool is always in an operating condition because it does not have

to be plugged into an electrical outlet.

14) Disconnect battery pack from the tool or place switch in the “LOCKED” or “OFF”

position before making any assembly, adjustments or changing accessories. Such

preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

15) Save these instructions. Refer to them frequently and use them to instruct others who may

use this tool. If someone borrows this tool, make sure they have these instructions.

WARNING! 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 paint

• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber

Your risk to 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

• Work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are speciﬁcally designed to

ﬁlter out microscopic particles.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Note: Before using the tool, read the instruction

book carefully.

1. BEFORE USING YOUR CORDLESS JIGSAW

Your battery pack is UNCHARGED and you must

charge once before use. Your battery pack will not be

fully charged until you have performed several charge

and discharge operations by charging & working with

your drill. After this your battery pack performance will

improve.

Warning: The charger and battery pack are specif-

ically designed to work together so do not attempt

to use any other devices. Never insert or allow metallic

objects into your charger or battery pack connections be-

cause an electrical failure and hazard will occur.

2. HOW TO CHARGE YOUR BATTERY PACK (See

Fig 1)

1) Connect the battery charger to the power supply. The

red light will illuminate for 3 seconds and then it will go

out.

Note: If the red light ﬂashes at a rapid rate (approx. 5

ﬂashes per second), this means that the charger has

failed and must be replaced.

2) Fully insert the battery pack into the charger. With

a normal charging process, only the red light will illu-

minate to show charging has started. The red light will

remain on during the charging process. A discharged

battery at normal ambient temperature will take approx-

imately 1 hour to reach full charge.

Note: If the battery temperature is lower than 36ºF (0ºC),

the green light will ﬂash slowly (approximately 1 ﬂash

per second). Remove the battery and allow the battery

to warm-up to a charging temperature between 140ºF

(60ºC) and 95ºF(35ºC).

If the battery temperature is over 140ºF (60ºC), the green

light will ﬂash rapidly (approximately 5 ﬂashes per sec-

ond). Remove the battery and allow the battery to cool-

down to a charging temperature between 36ºF and 95ºF

(2ºC and 35ºC).

If the battery temperature is over 176ºF (80ºC), the charg-

ing process will be stopped, and the red light will ﬂash

with a low speed (approximately 1 ﬂash per second). The

battery must be replaced.

3) When the charging is complete, only the green light

will illuminate.

Note: When the battery is under charging and its volt-

age cannot reach 8V in 2 minutes, we consider the bat-

tery to be “dead”, and the red light will ﬂash with a low

Cordless Jigsaw WT545

speed (approximately 1 ﬂash per second). Remove the

“dead” battery from the charger and replace with a new

battery.

4) When the charging process is ﬁnished, the battery is

still charging with a current 200mA.

Note: The charger timer-circuit and battery pack tem-

perature safety-cutout device prevents overcharging of

the battery pack. However, it is recommended to remove

the battery from the charger when the charging cycle

has been completed as indicated by the illumination of

the green light.

Warning: After extended periods of use, the

battery will become hot. Allow the hot bat-

tery to cool down for at least 1 hour before re-

charging.

3. TO REMOVE OR INSTALL BATTERY PACK

Locate latches on side of battery pack and depress both

sides to release battery pack from your drill. Remove bat-

tery pack from your drill. After recharge insert the battery

pack into drill’s battery port. A simple push and slight

pressure will be sufﬁcient.

4. SAFETY ON/OFF SWITCH

Your switch is locked off to prevent accidental starting.

Depress lock off button (B) then on/off switch (A) and re-

lease lock off button (B). Your switch is now on. To switch

off just release the on/off switch (See Fig 2).

The jig saw can be turned ON or OFF by squeezing or

releasing the switch. The speed of the blade can be ad-

justed by the pressure you apply to the switch. To in-

crease the speed, apply more pressure to the switch. To

decrease the speed, apply less pressure.

5. HAND GRIP AREAS

Always ensure you maintain a ﬁrm grip while operating

your jigsaw.

6. DUST COVER

When operating your jigsaw the dust cover must be

closed to allow the dust extraction system to work ef-

ﬁciently. The dust cover can be lifted to improve access

for cleaning, blade ﬁtting, etc. (See Fig 3).

7. BLADE FITTING

You can only use the blade type shown in Fig 4. To open

the blade holder (6) rotate the ring counter-clockwise

(Jigsaw upside down) and hold in position (See Fig 5).

Then fully insert the blade into the blade holder slot with

blade teeth facing forward and release the ring, which

will self rotate and clamp over the top of the blade. Push

the blade into the blade holder again to ensure it is locked

in position. Ensure the edge of the blade is located in the

groove of the blade guide (See Fig 6). To remove a blade,

hold the blade and rotate the blade holder ring counter-

clockwise then lift out the blade (blade could be spring

ejected).

Warning: Blade teeth are very sharp, wear

gloves when changing blades.

For best cutting results ensure you use a blade

suited to the material and cut quality you need.

Blade is spring ejected. Protect your eyes when

removing blade.

8. PARALLEL GUIDE ADJUSTMENT

The parallel guide is used for making cuts parallel to a

work-piece edge at a chosen distance. Slide the paral-

lel guide (16) arm through both ﬁxtures to achieve the

required cutting distance and tighten screw to lock into

position. It can be used from both sides of the base plate

(10). The cutting distance is shown on the guide scale.

Always make a trial cut to check the setting.

Warning: The parallel guide as well as the

splintering protector can only be used for

the 0°(normal) position.

9. BLADE GUIDE

Ensure the blade is located and runs smoothly in the

groove (See Fig 6) otherwise the pendulum function will

not work correctly and the blade will not be supported

during cutting.

10. PENDULUM ACTION CONTROL

The pendulum action varies the forward cutting angle of

the blade for increased cutting efﬁciency. This can also

be adjusted during no load running. Refer to the chart

for more details. Do not use excessive blade force when

cutting with the pendulum action. The blade cuts on the

upward stroke only (See Fig 7).

11. BASE PLATE

Adjusting the angle of the base plate (10) enables bev-

el cutting. The base plate must always be held ﬁrmly

against the materials being cut to reduce saw vibration,

blade jumping or blade breakage.

12. BASE PLATE ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

Using a Hex key. Loosen the bolts securing the base

plate (See Fig 8). For pre-set angles rotate the base so

the angle markings on the base plate line up with the

markings on the angle plate (14) for preset angles (0°,

15°, 30°, 45°) (See Fig 9,10). For other miter angles, rotate

to your desired angle (use a protractor scale). Follow-

ing one of the above procedures, hold the base plate in

position and ﬁrmly tighten the bolts to clamp the base

plate at the desired angle. Finally, check the angle and

ensure the base plate is ﬁrmly clamped. The angle mark-

ings on the base plate are accurate for most general pur-

pose cutting but it is recommended for accurate work to

set the angle with a protractor and make a test cut on a

piece of scrap material.

13. BLADE PROTECTION BAR

The blade protection bar is located in front of the blade

holder. While working, it will help prevent accidental

contact with the moving blade.

14. DUST BLOWER AIR HOLE

This is a small hole located underneath the housing just

behind the blade guide. Ensure this is kept clean to al-

low the airﬂow to continually blow dust away from the

cutting area.

15. SPLINTERING PROTECTOR

The splintering protector (15) prevents the splintering of

the surface when sawing in wooden materials. Press the

splintering protector from below into the base plate (See

Fig 11).

1 Thin materials. Fine cuts. Tight curves.

2 Hard materials, (e.g. steel & chipboard).

3 Thick materials ( e.g. wood ) & plastic.

4 Fast cuts (e.g. softwood). Cutting in the direction

of the wood grain.

Cordless Jigsaw WT545

16. DISPOSAL OF AN EXHAUSTED BATTERY

PACK

To preserve natural resources, please recycle or dispose

of the battery pack properly. This battery pack contains

nickel-cadmium batteries. Consult your local waste au-

thority for information regarding available recycling

and/or disposal options. Discharge your battery pack by

operating your drill, then remove the battery pack from

the drill housing and cover the battery pack connections

with heavy duty adhesive tape to prevent short circuit

and energy discharge. Do not attempt to open or remove

any of the components.

WORKING HINTS FOR YOUR JIG-

SAW

If your power tool becomes too hot, set the speed to

maximum and run no load for 2-3 minutes to cool the

motor.

GENERAL

Always use a blade suited to the material and material

thickness to be cut. Always ensure the work–piece is

ﬁrmly held or clamped to prevent movement. For easier

control, use low speed to start cutting, then increase to

correct speed.

Any movement of the material may affect the quality of

the cut. The blade cuts on the upward stroke and may

chip the uppermost surface. Ensure your uppermost sur-

face is a non-visible surface when your work is ﬁnished.

CUTTING LAMINATES

Use a ﬁne tooth blade when cutting most laminates and

thin wood materials. To reduce edge chipping, clamp

pieces of waste wood at both ends and on both sides

and cut through the wood during cutting.

CIRCLE CUTTING

Do not use the pendulum action when cutting tight cir-

cles or angles.

POCKET CUTTING (SOFT MATERIALS ONLY)

To cut material out, either drill a hole large enough to in-

sert the jig saw blade or proceed as follows. Clearly mark

the area to be cut. Position the jigsaw over the marked

area with the rounded front edge of the base plate rest-

ing on the surface. Ensure the blade is not touching but

is close to the work surface. Switch the jigsaw on and

gently swing the blade down into the material but main-

1312

NA-WT545-M-051115.indd 12 2005-11-15 17:10:40

Cordless Jigsaw WT545

1312

tain a pivoting force on the front edge of the base. Only

when the blade has fully penetrated the material and the

full length of the base plate is ﬁrmly resting on the work

surface, you move the jigsaw forward for normal cut-

ting.

METAL CUTTING

Use a ﬁner tooth blade for ferrous metals and a coarse

tooth blade for non-ferrous metals. When cutting thin

sheet metals always clamp wood on both sides of the

sheet to reduce vibration or tearing of the sheet metal.

Both wood and sheet metal must be cut. Do not force

the cutting blade when cutting thin metal or sheet steel

as they are harder materials and will take longer to cut.

Excessive blade force may reduce the life of the blade or

damage the motor. To reduce heat during metal cutting,

add a little lubricant along the cutting line.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

1. WHY DOES THE SAW NOT TURN ON WHEN YOU

PRESS THE SWITCH?

The lock-off button (B) is locked and you must depress

the button (B) ﬁrst (See Fig 2).

2. THE SAW BLADE MOVES SLOWLY, WHY?

Verify the battery is fully charged by pressing the battery

test button. If the battery is not fully charged, recharge

the battery with the supplied battery charger.

Note: Do not charge the battery with a different charger.

Charge battery pack only with the charger provided.

3. I CANNOT FIT THE BATTERY INTO THE BAT-

TERY CHARGER. WHY?

The battery can be inserted into the charger only in one

direction. Turn the battery around until it can be inserted

into the slot, the red LED light should turn on when the

battery is charging (See Fig 1).

4. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT CHARGING TIMES.

Your charge time can be affected by many reasons -

which are not defects in your product. If the battery pack

is only partly discharged it may be re-charged in less than

1 hour. If the battery pack and ambient temperature are

very cold then re-charging may take 1 to 1 1/2 hours. If

the battery pack is very hot it will not re-charge because

the internal temperature safety cut-out will prevent it. If

hot you must remove your battery pack from the char-

ger and allow your battery pack to cool ﬁrst to ambient

NA-WT545-M-051115.indd 13 2005-11-15 17:10:40

Cordless Jigsaw WT545

temperature and then recharging can be started. If you

charge a second battery pack immediately after the ﬁrst

then the charger can be over-heated. Always allow at

least 15 minutes rest between battery pack charging.

5. REASONS FOR DIFFERENT BATTERY PACK

WORKING TIMES.

Charging time problems, as above, and having not used

a battery pack for a prolonged time will reduce the bat-

tery pack working time. This can be corrected after sev-

eral charge and discharge cycles by charging & working

with your saw. Do not re-charge your battery pack below

2OC and above 35OC as this will affect performance.

MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE

Keep tools sharp and clean for better and safer perfor-

mance. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing

accessories. Inspect tool cords periodically and if dam-

aged, have repaired by authorized service facility.

Your power tool requires no additional lubrication or

maintenance. There are no user serviceable parts in

your power tool. Never use water or chemical cleaners

to clean your power tool. Wipe clean with a dry cloth.

Always store your power tool in a dry place. Keep the

motor ventilation slots clean. Keep all working controls

free of dust. If you see some sparks ﬂashing in the ven-

tilation slots, this is normal and will not damage your

power tool.

Note: Check the blade guide for excess wear. Oc-

casionally, add one drop of general purpose oil to

each side of the blade guide for longer life.

CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ

AVERTISSEMENT! Lisez et assimilez toutes les instructions. Le non-respect des in-

structions ci-après peut entraîner un risque de choc électrique, d’incendie et/ou de blessures

graves.

CONSERVEZ CES INSTRUCTIONS

1. AIRE DE TRAVAIL

a) Veillez à ce que l’aire de travail soit propre et bien éclairée. Le désordre et le manque

de lumière favorisent les accidents.

b) N’utilisez pas d’outils électriques dans un milieu présentant un risque d’explosion,

par exemple en présence de liquides, de gaz ou de poussières inﬂammables. Les

outils électriques créent des étincelles qui pourraient enﬂammer les poussières ou les va-

peurs.

c) Gardez à distance les curieux, les enfants et les visiteurs lorsque vous travaillez

avec un outil électrique. Ils pourraient vous distraire et vous faire faire une fausse ma-

noeuvre.

2. SÉCURITÉ ÉLECTRIQUE

a) Un outil à pile avec piles incorporées ou un bloc-pile distinct doit être rechargé

uniquement avec le chargeur indiqué pour la pile. Un chargeur qui peut être adéquat

pour un type de pile peut créer un risque d’incendie lorsqu’il est utilisé avec une autre pile.

b) Utiliser un outil à pile uniquement avec le bloc-pile désigné spéciﬁquement.

L’emploi de toute autre pile peut créer un risque d’incendie.

3. SÉCURITÉ DES PERSONNES

a) Restez alerte, concentrez-vous sur votre travail et faites preuve de bon sens.

N’utilisez pas un outil électrique si vous êtes fatigué ou sous l’inﬂuence de

drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Un instant d’inattention lors de l’utilisation

d’outils électriques peut entraîner des blessures graves.

b) Habillez-vous convenablement. Ne portez ni vêtements ﬂottants ni bijoux. Conﬁ-

nez les cheveux longs. Gardez les cheveux, les vêtements et les gants éloignés des pièces

en mouvement. Les vêtements ﬂottants, les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent d’être hap-

pés par des pièces en mouvement. Gardez les poignées sèches, propres et exemptes d’huile

et de graisse. Le port de gants en caoutchouc et de chaussures à semelle antidérapante est

recommandé si vous travaillez à l’extérieur.

c) Évitez les démarrages accidentels. Avant d’insérer la pile dans l’outil, assurez-

vous que sa détente est á la position “OFF” (Arrêt) ou verrouillée. Le fait de trans-

porter un outil avec le doigt sur la détente/l’interrupteur ou d’insérer la batterie dans un outil

dont la détente est á la position << ON >> (Marche) peut causer un accident.

d) Retirez les clés de réglage. Prenez l’habitude de vériﬁer si les clés de réglage et autres

outils sont retirés de l’outil avant de le mettre en marche.

e) Ne vous penchez pas trop en avant. Maintenez un bon appui et restez en équilibre

en tout temps. Une bonne stabilité vous permet de mieux réagir à une situation inatten-

due.

f) Utilisez des accessoires de sécurité. Portez toujours une protection oculaire.

Selon les conditions, portez aussi un masque antipoussière, des bottes de sécurité antidéra-

pantes, un casque protecteur et une protection antibruit.

g) Tenez les mains à l’écart des arrêtes tranchantes et des pièces en mouvement.

h) Si un sac de récupération de poussière et port pour aspirateur est fourni, assurez

vous qu’il est correctement relié et utilisé de façon appropriée. L’utilisation de ce

système réduit les dangers physiques et physiologiques liés à la poussière.

4. UTILISATION ET ENTRETIEN DE L’OUTIL

a) Immobilisez le matériau travaillé sur une surface stable au moyen de serre-joints

ou de toute autre façon adéquate. Le fait de tenir la pièce avec la main ou contre votre

corps n’offre pas une stabilité insufﬁsante et peut entraîner une perte de contrôle de l’outil.

b) Ne forcez pas l’outil. Utilisez l’outil approprié à la tâche. L’outil approprié fonctionne

mieux et de façon plus sécuritaire. Respectez aussi la vitesse de travail qui lui est propre. Un

usage excessif, en plus de fatiguer l’utilisateur, augmentera l’usure de l’outil et rendra son

maniement plus difﬁcile.

c) N’utilisez pas un outil si l’interrupteur ne le met pas en marche ou ne peut l’arrêter.

Un outil qui ne peut être contrôlé par l’interrupteur est dangereux et doit être réparé.

d) Débranchez le bloc-pile de l’outil ou mettez son commutateur en position << OFF

>> (Arrêt) ou <<LOCKED>> (Verrouillé) avant d’effectuer un réglage, de changer

d’accessoire ou de ranger l’outil. De telles mesures de sécurité préventive réduisent le

risque de démarrage accidentel de l’outil.

e) Rangez les outils hors de la portée des enfants et d’autres personnes inexpéri-

mentées. Les outils sont dangereux dans les mains d’utilisateurs novices.

f) Lorsque le bloc-pile n’est pas en usage, tenez-le à l’écart d’autres objets métal-

liques tels que trombones, pièces de monnaie, clés, clous, vis ou autres petits

objets métalliques susceptibles d’établir une connexion d’une borne à une autre.

Le court-circuitage des bornes de batterie peut causer des étincelles, des brûlures, une ex-

plosion ou un incendie.

g) Prenez soin de bien entretenir les outils. Les outils de coupe doivent être toujours

bien affûtés et propres. Des outils bien entretenus, dont les arrêtes sont bien tranchantes,

sont moins susceptibles de se coincer et plus faciles à contrôler.

h) Soyez attentif à tout désalignement ou coincement des pièces en mouvement,

à tout bris ou à toute autre condition préjudiciable au bon fonctionnement de

l’outil. Si vous constatez qu’un outil est endommagé, faites-le réparer avant de

vous en servir. De nombreux accidents sont causés par des outils en mauvais état.

i) Utilisez seulement les accessoires recommandés par le fabricant de votre modèle.

Certains accessoires peuvent convenir à un outil, mais être dangereux avec un autre.

j) Utilisez l’outil approprié à la tâche à accomplir. Ne forcez pas l’outil ni l’accessoire en

tentant d’effectuer une tâche pour laquelle ils n’ont pas été conçus.

5. ENTRETIEN

a) L’entretien ou la réparation de l’outil doit être réalisé seulement par du personnel

qualiﬁé. L’entretien ou la réparation d’un outil électrique, effectués par un amateur, peuvent

avoir des conséquences graves.

b) Pour l’entretien d’un outil, n’employez que des pièces de rechange identiques.

Suivez les directives fournies dans la section <<Entretien>> du présent manuel.

L’emploi de pièces non autorisées ou le non-respect des instructions d’entretien peut créer

un risque de choc électrique ou de blessures.

RÉGLES DE SÉCURITÉ SUPPLÉMENTAIRES POUR SCIES

SAUTEUSES SANS CORDON

AVERTISSEMENT! La non observance de ces règles peut conduire à des blessures

graves.

1) Lors de l’exécution d’une opération au cours de laquelle l’outil de coupe peut venir

en contact avec les ﬁls cachés ou son propre cordon, tenez l’outil par ses surfaces

isolées de préhension. Le contact avec un ﬁl sous tension rendra les pièces métalliques

exposées de l’outil sous tension et causera des chocs à l’opérateur.

2) Gardez les mains à l’écart de la zone de coupe. Ne placez surtout pas la main sous le

matériau que vous coupez. Il est impossible de déterminer exactement la proximité de la lame

de votre main.

3) Portez toujours des lunettes à coques latérales ou des lunettes de protection en

utilisant cet outil. Utilisez un respirateur ou un masque anti-poussières pour les ap-

plications produisant de la poussière.

4) N’utiliser pas de lames émoussées ou endommagées. Les lames bien affûtées scient

mieux et améliorent la sécurité. Les lames pliées peuvent aisément se fracturer ou causer un

rebond.

5) La base doit être maintenue fermement contre le matériau à couper aﬁn de réduire les

vibrations de la scie, les sauts et cassures de lame.

6) N’arrêtez jamais la scie de coupe par pression latérale sur la lame.

7) Ne retirez la scie de la pièce travaillée que lorsque la lame s’est arrêtée.

8) En travaillant, ne mettez pas vos mains sous la pièce; le garde ne protège pas de la lame

en dessous de l’ouvrage.

9) La scie sauteuse est un outil à main, ne pas la ﬁxer sur un établi.

10) Avant la coupe, vériﬁer que la ligne de coupe est dépourvue de clous, vis, etc.

11) Toujours vériﬁer les murs, sols et plafonds aﬁn de voir s’il existe des câbles et tuy-

aux cachés.

12) Ne pas couper de matériaux contenant de l’amiante.

13) Rappelez vous que cet outil est toujours en état de fonctionnement possible parce

qu’il ne doit pas être branché dans une prise de courant.

14) Sortez le bloc pile de l’outil ou placez son commutateur en position << OFF >> (Ar-

rêt) ou <<LOCKED>> (Verrouillé) avant d’y faire un travail quelconque, d’effectuer un

réglage ou de changer d’accessoire. Une telle mesure de sécurité préventive préviendra

le démarrage accidentel de l’outil.

15) Conservez ces instructions. Reportez-vous y fréquemment et utilisez-les pour informer

d’autres personnes qui pourraient utiliser cet outil. Si une autre personne utilise cet outil, as-

surez-vous de lui fournir ces instructions.

AVERTISSEMENT! Les travaux à la machine tel que ponçage, sciage, meulage,

perçage et autres travaux du bâtiment peuvent créer des poussières contenant

des produits chimiques qui sont des causes reconnues de cancer, de malfor-

mation congénitale ou d’autres problèmes reproductifs. Ces produits chimiques sont, par

exemple:

• Le plomb provenant des peintures á base de plomb

• Les cristaux de silices provenant des briques, du ciment et d’autres produits de maçonnerie

• L’arsenic et le chrome provenant des bois traités chimiquement

Le niveau de risque dû à cette exposition varie avec la fréquence de ces types de travaux. Pour

réduire l’exposition à ces produits chimiques, il faut travailler dans un lieu bien ventilé et porter un
