PERSONAL PRECAUTIONS

Control the tool, personal movement and the work environment to avoid

personal injury or damage to tool.

1. Do not operate any tool when tired or under the influence of drugs,

alcohol or medications.

2. Avoid wearing clothes or jewelry that can become entangled with the

moving parts of a tool. Keep long hair covered or bound.

3. Do not overreach when operating a tool. Proper footing and balance

enables better control in unexpected situations.

4. Support the workpiece or clamp it to a stable platform. Holding the

workpiece by hand or against your body may lead to personal injury.

5. Securely hold this tool using both hands. Using a tool with only one hand

can result in loss of control.

6. Keep your fingers away from the trigger/switch while carrying the tool,

attaching an air hose or an accessory. Lock the trigger/switch safety if available.

7. Avoid unintentional starts. Be sure that the regulator/throttle switch is in

the neutral or OFF position when not in use and before connecting it to

any air source.

8. Never point the air stream or tool at any point of your body, other people

or animals. Debris and dust ejected at high speed can cause an injury.

9. Serious injury or death may occur from inhaling compressed air. The air

stream may contain carbon monoxide, toxic vapors or solid particles.

Never inhale compressed air directly from the pump or air tool.

SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

WARNING! DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from

repeated use) replace strict adherence to the tool safety rules. If you use this

tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

1. Use the correct tool for the job. This tool was designed for a

specific function. Do not modify or alter this tool or use it for

an unintended purpose.

V1.0 Air Reciprocating Saw 8843518

Visit www.princessauto.com for more information 5

2. Accessories must be rated for at least the recommended strokes per

minute speed of the tool (see Specifications)

3. Keep hands away from cutting area and the blade. Keep both hands

securely on the saw.

4. Keep your body positioned to either side of the blade, but not in line with

the saw blade. Kickback could cause the saw to jump backwards.

5. Do not reach underneath the work piece while operating the saw.

6. Never hold a work piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. Secure

the work piece to a stable platform. It is important to support the work

properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

7. Stay clear of end pieces that may fall after cutting. They may be hot, sharp

and/or heavy. Serious personal injury may result.

8. Always handle the saw blade with care when mounting or removing it.

9. Do not start the tool when the blade is touching the work piece.

10. Hold the 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 also make exposed metal parts of the

power tool ‘live’ and shock the operator.

11. Always use blades that are designed to be used with this saw. Blades that

do not match the mounting hardware of the saw may be launched with

great force from the saw causing damage to property or personal injury. A

blade that does not match the mounting hardware may also run

eccentrically, causing loss of control.

12. After changing a blade or making adjustments, make sure that the blade

chuck is holding the blade securely.

13. Do not use dull or damaged blades.

14. Do not use the tool on any material containing asbestos.

15. Avoid cutting nails. Inspect the work piece for any nails and remove

before cutting.

16. Do not touch the blade or the surface that has been cut with this tool

immediately after use. The surface will be hot and may cause an injury.

AIR TOOL PRECAUTIONS

1. Use only clean and dry compressed air as a power source. Contaminated

or moist air will gradually damage the tool.

8843518 Air Reciprocating Saw V1.0

6 For technical questions call 1-800-665-8685

2. Install an in-line shutoff valve or regulator to allow immediate control over

the air supply in an emergency, even if a hose is ruptured.

3. Discontinue tool use if it does not work properly or air is leaking. Tag or

mark the tool as ‘defective’ or ‘out of service’ until repaired.

4. Check the manufacturer’s maximum pressure rating for air tools and

accessories. Compressor outlet pressure must be regulated to never

exceed the maximum pressure rating of the tool (see Specifications).

Exceeding the maximum PSI rating can create a bursting hazard, causing

injury and property damage.

5. Attach all accessories properly to the tool before connecting the air

supply. A loose accessory may detach or break during operation.

6. Never use oxygen, combustible gas or any other bottled gas as a power

source. Any power source other than an air compressor could cause an

explosion and serious personal injury.

7. Turn OFF the valve and discharge any remaining air pressure after each

use or before adjusting the tool.

8. Do not leave the air tool unattended with its compressed air supply on.

Turn off the compressed air supply and bleed the air tool of any remaining

compressed air before leaving the air tool unattended.

9. Serious injury may occur from loose debris being propelled at high speeds

from the compressed air stream. Always wear OSHA approved safety

glasses to protect the eyes during operation of the air compressor.

10. Always turn off the air compressor and drain tank pressure completely

before attempting maintenance or attaching air tools. Release pressure

slowly from the system.

11. Serious injury or death may occur from inhaling compressed air. The air

stream may contain carbon monoxide, toxic vapors or solid particles.

Never inhale compressed air directly from the pump or air tool.

AIR HOSE PRECAUTIONS

1. Inspect the tool's air hose for cracks, fraying or other faults before each

use. Discontinue use if the air hose is damaged or hissing is heard from

the air hose or couplers. Replace the defective air hose.

2. Do not allow people, mobile equipment or vehicles to pass over the

unprotected air hose. Position the air hose away from high traffic areas,

in a reinforced conduit or place planks on both sides of the air hose to

create a protective trench.

V1.0 Air Reciprocating Saw 8843518

Visit www.princessauto.com for more information 7

3. Prevent damage to the air hose by observing the following:

a. Never carry the tool by the air hose.

b. Keep the air hose behind the tool and out of the tool's work path.

c. Keep the air hose away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts.

d. Do not wrap the air hose around the tool as sharp edges may pierce

or crack the air hose. Gently coil the hose and either hang on a hook

or fasten with a device to keep hose together when storing.

4. A damaged or disconnected air hose under pressure may whip around and

inflict personal injury or damage the work area. Secure the compressor's

air hose to a fixed or permanent structure with clamps or cable ties.

KICKBACK PRECAUTIONS

Kickback is a sudden reaction to a pinched, bound or misaligned blade, causing

an uncontrolled tool to lift up and out of the workpiece toward the operator;

when the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the cut workpiece closing down,

the blade stalls and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back toward the

operator. Kickback may result in loss of control of the tool leading to serious

personal injury, damage to the tool or workpiece.

Kickback can be avoided by taking proper precautions:

1. Maintain a firm grip on the tool and position your body and arms to allow

you to resist kickback forces. Kickback will propel the tool in the direction

opposite to the tool’s movement at the time of snagging.

2. Never place your hand near the blade. If kickback occurs, the blade may

pass over your hand and seriously injury you. Use clamps or a vice to hold

down the workpiece.

3. Use special care when working on corners, sharp edges etc. Corners, sharp

edges or bouncing have a tendency to snag the blade and cause loss of

control or kickback.

4. When the blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason,

release the trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material until the

blade comes to a complete stop. Never attempt to remove the saw from

the workpiece or pull the saw backward while the blade is in motion or

kickback may occur. Investigate and take corrective actions to eliminate

the cause of blade binding.

5. When restarting a blade in the workpiece, center the blade in the cut and check

that blade teeth are not engaged into the material. If saw blade is binding, it

may walk up or kickback from the workpiece as the saw is restarted.

8843518 Air Reciprocating Saw V1.0

8 For technical questions call 1-800-665-8685

6. Support large panels to minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback.

Large panels tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must be placed

under the panel on both sides, near the line of cut and near the edge of

the panel.

7. To minimize the risk of blade pinching and kickback, when cutting

operation requires the resting of the tool on the workpiece, the tool

should be rested on the larger portion and the smaller piece cut off.

8. Use extra caution when making a ‘plunge cut’ into existing walls or other

blind areas. The protruding blade may cut objects that can cause kickback.

9. Only use blades designed for the tool. Do not use dull or damaged blades.

Unsharpened or improperly set blades produce narrow cuts causing

excessive friction, blade binding and kickback. Keep blades sharp and

clean. Gum and wood pitch hardened on blades slows the saw and

increases potential for kickback.

10. Never force the saw. Forcing the tool can cause uneven cuts, loss of accuracy,

and possible kickback. Push the tool forward at a speed so that the blade cuts

without slowing.

VIBRATION PRECAUTIONS

1. This tool vibrates during use. Repeated or long-term exposure to vibration

may cause temporary or permanent physical injury. Take frequent breaks

when using the tool.

2. If you feel any medical symptoms related to vibrations (such as tingling,

numbness, and white or blue fingers), seek medical attention as soon as

possible.

3. Wear suitable gloves to reduce the effects of vibration.

4. DO NOT use this tool before consulting a physician if one of the following

applies:

a. Pregnant

b. Impaired blood circulation to the

hands

c. Past hand injuries

d. Nervous system disorders

e. Diabetes

f. Raynaud's Disease

the throttle lever (#13) to begin operating the reciprocating saw. Allow the

saw to reach full speed before placing the blade onto the workpiece.

3. Cut your line. Let the reciprocating saw do the work. Do not place

unnecessary pressure on the reciprocating saw. Excessive pressure may

break the blade or stall the reciprocating saw, potentially causing damage

to the workpiece or personal injury.

4. When you have finished cutting your line, pull the reciprocating saw from the

workpiece and release the throttle lever (#13) to stop the reciprocating saw.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

1. Maintain the tool with care. A tool in good condition is efficient, easier to

control and will have fewer problems.

2. Inspect the tool fittings, alignment, hoses and power supply cord periodically.

Have damaged or worn components repaired or replaced by an authorized

technician. Only use identical replacement parts when servicing.

3. Follow instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

4. Only use accessories intended for use with this tool.

5. Keep the tool clean, dry and free from oil/grease at all times.

6. Maintain the tool’s labels and name plates. These carry important information.

If unreadable or missing, contact Princess Auto Ltd. for replacements.

WARNING! Only qualified service personnel should repair the tool. An improperly

repaired tool may present a hazard to the user and/or others.

LUBRICATION

Only use air tool oil to lubricate the tool. Other lubricants may not be suitable

and could damage the tool or cause a malfunction during use.

1. It is very important that the tool be properly lubricated. Without proper

lubrication, the tool will not work properly and parts will wear prematurely.

Manually dropping a drop or two of air tool oil once a day into the tool's male

connector is better than using an automatic in-line lubricator, which should

only be required when there are multiple users of the same tool.

2. Apply a few drops of oil to the throttle lever (#13). Work the throttle lever

a few times to distribute the oil.

3. Keep the in-line lubricator filled and correctly adjusted. The in-line lubricator

should be regularly checked and filled with air tool oil. Proper adjustment of

the in-line lubricator is performed by placing a sheet of paper next to the

exhaust ports and holding the throttle open approximately 30 seconds. The

lubricator is properly set when a light stain of oil collects on the paper.

Excessive amounts of oil should be avoided.

4. Air tool oil is the only recommended lubricant for use in all air tools. Do

not try to use other types of lubricants to oil your tools. Using the wrong

lubricant will cause premature tool failure and / or loss of power. Use only

recommended lubricants, specially made for pneumatic applications.

Substitutes may harm the rubber compounds in the tool's O-rings and

other rubber parts.

5. Oiling your air tool regularly is important, but also is important not to

over-oil your air tool. Over oiling can cause premature tool failure. Your

tool may not be ruined, but it will begin to experience loss of power that

will continually get worse until it no longer works. The tool then has to be

taken apart and cleaned of excess oil.

6. All air tools are packed in grease to prevent corrosion of internal parts during

shipping and storage. We recommend that you clean this out to have

8843518 Air Reciprocating Saw V1.0

12 For technical questions call 1-800-665-8685

optimum performance from your new air tool. Use two drops of air tool oil to

lubricate the tool and run the tool under no load until exhaust is clear.

7. In the event that it becomes necessary to store the tool for an extended

period of time (overnight, weekend, etc.), it should receive a generous

amount of lubrication at that time. The tool should be run for

approximately 30 seconds to ensure oil has been evenly distributed

throughout the tool. The tool should be stored in a clean and dry

environment.

NOTICE! NEVER use a penetrating oil to lubricate the tool. Penetrating oil may

act as a solvent that can break down the grease and cause the tool to seize up.

STORAGE

When not in use for an extended period, apply a thin coat of lubricant to the

steel parts to avoid rust. Remove the lubricant before using the tool again.

DISPOSAL

Recycle a tool damaged beyond repair at the appropriate facility.
