General Power Tool Safety Warnings

Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and speciﬁcations provid-

ed with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result

in electric shock, ﬁre and/or serious injury.

SAVE ALL WARNINGS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

The term “power tool” in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or

battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

1. Work area safety

a. Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered

or dark areas invite accidents.

b. Do not operate power tools in explosive

atmospheres, such as in the presence of

ﬂammable liquids, gases or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite the dust

or fumes.

c. Keep children and bystanders away while

operating a power tool. Distractions can

cause you to lose control.

2. Electrical safety

a. Power tool plugs must match the outlet.

Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use

any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded)

power tools. Unmodiﬁed plugs and matching

outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

b. Avoid body contact with earthed or ground-

ed surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, rang-

es and refrigerators. There is an increased

risk of electric shock if your body is earthed

or grounded.

c. Do not expose power tools to rain or wet

conditions. Water entering a power tool will

increase the risk of electric shock.

d. Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord

for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power

tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp

edges or moving parts. Damaged or entan-

gled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

e. When operating a power tool outdoors, use

an extension cord suitable for outdoor use.

Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduc-

es the risk of electric shock.

f. If operating a power tool in a damp location

is unavoidable, use a Ground Fault Circuit

Interrupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of

an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock.

3. Personal safety

a. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and

use common sense when operating a power

tool. Do not use a power tool while you are

tired or under the inﬂuence of drugs, alco-

hol or medication. A moment of inattention

while operating power tools may result in se-

rious personal injury.

b. Use personal protective equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Protective equipment

such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes,

hard hat, or hearing protection used for ap-

propriate conditions will reduce personal

injuries.

Safety Symbols

The definitions below describe the level of severity for each signal word.

Please read the manual and pay attention to these symbols.

This is the safety alert symbol. It is used to alert you to potential

personal injury hazards. Obey all safety messages that follow this

symbol to avoid possible injury or death.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

c. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the oﬀ-position before connect-

ing to power source and / or battery pack,

picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying

power tools with your ﬁnger on the switch or

energizing power tools that have the switch

on invites accidents.

d. Remove any adjusting key or wrench before

turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key

left attached to a rotating part of the power

tool may result in personal injury.

e. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better con-

trol of the power tool in unexpected situa-

tions.

f. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing

or jewelry. Keep your hair and clothing away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry or

long hair can be caught in moving parts.

g. If devices are provided for the connection

of dust extraction and collection facilities,

ensure these are connected and properly

used. Use of dust collection can reduce

dust-related hazards.

h. Do not let familiarity gained from frequent

use of tools allow you to become compla-

cent and ignore tool safety principles. A

careless action can cause severe injury with-

in a fraction of a second.

4. Power tool use and care

a. Do not force the power tool. Use the correct

power tool for your application. The correct

power tool will do the job better and safer at

the rate for which it was designed.

b. Do not use the power tool if the switch

does not turn it on and oﬀ. Any power tool

that cannot be controlled with the switch is

dangerous and must be repaired.

c. Disconnect the plug from the power source

and/or remove the battery pack, if detach-

able, from the power tool before making

any adjustments, changing accessories, or

storing power tools. Such preventive safe-

ty measures reduce the risk of starting the

power tool accidentally.

d. Store idle power tools out of the reach of

children and do not allow persons unfamil-

iar with the power tool or these instructions

to operate the power tool. Power tools are

dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

e. Maintain power tools and accessories.

Check for misalignment or binding of mov-

ing parts, breakage of parts and any other

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.

f. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Prop-

erly maintained cutting tools with sharp

cutting edges are less likely to bind and are

easier to control.

g. Use the power tool, accessories and tool

bits etc. in accordance with these instruc-

tions, taking into account the working condi-

tions and the work to be performed. Use of

the power tool for operations diﬀerent from

those intended could result in a hazardous

situation.

h. Keep handles and grasping surfaces dry,

clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery

handles and grasping surfaces do not allow

for safe handling and control of the tool in

unexpected situations.

5. Battery tool use and care

a. Recharge only with the charger speciﬁed

by the manufacturer. A charger that is suit-

able for one type of battery pack may create

a risk of ﬁre when used with another battery

pack.

b. Use power tools only with speciﬁcally des-

ignated battery packs. Use of any other bat-

tery packs may create a risk of injury and ﬁre.

c. When battery pack is not in use, keep it

away from other metal objects like paper

clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other

small metal objects that can make a con-

nection from one terminal to another.

Shorting the battery terminals together may

cause burns or a ﬁre.

d. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be

ejected from the battery; avoid contact. If

contact accidentally occurs, ﬂush with wa-

ter. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek

medical help. Liquid ejected from the bat-

tery may cause irritation or burns.

e. Do not use a battery pack or tool that is

damaged or modiﬁed. Damaged or modiﬁed

batteries may exhibit unpredictable behavior

resulting in ﬁre, explosion or risk of injury.

General Power Tool Safety Warnings

f. Do not expose a battery pack or tool to ﬁre

or excessive temperature. Exposure to ﬁre

or temperature above 265 °F may cause ex-

plosion.

g. Follow all charging instructions and do not

charge the battery pack or tool outside the

temperature range speciﬁed in the instruc-

tions. Charging improperly or at tempera-

tures outside the speciﬁed range may dam-

age the battery and increase the risk of ﬁre.

6. Service

a. Have your power tool serviced by a quali-

ﬁed repair person using only identical re-

placement parts. This will ensure that the

safety of the power tool is maintained.

b. Never service damaged battery packs. Ser-

vice of battery packs should only be per-

formed by the manufacturer or authorized

service providers.

a. Hold the 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.

b. Use clamps or another practical way to se-

cure and support the workpiece to a stable

platform. Holding the workpiece by hand or

against your body leaves it unstable and may

lead to loss of control.

c. Do not drill, fasten or break into existing

walls or other blind areas where electrical

wiring may exist. If this situation is unavoid-

able, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers

feeding this worksite.

d. Disconnect battery pack from tool or place

the switch in the locked or oﬀ position be-

fore making any assembly, adjustments or

changing accessories. Such preventive safe-

ty measures reduce the risk of starting the

tool accidentally.

e. Never leave the trigger locked “ON”. Before

inserting the battery pack, check that the

trigger lock is “OFF”. Accidental start-ups

could cause injury.

f. 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.

g. Keep hands from between the gear hous-

ing and saw blade holder. The reciprocating

blade holder can pinch your ﬁngers.

h. Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent

blade can break easily or cause kickback.

i. 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 kick-

back.

j. 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.

k. Make certain all adjusting screws and the

blade holder are tight before making a cut.

Loose adjusting screws and holders can

cause the tool or blade to slip and loss of

control may result.

l. 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.

Additional Safety Warnings

GFCI and personal protection devices like elec-

trician’s rubber gloves and footwear will further

enhance your personal safety.

Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for

your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful not

to disassemble any portion of the tool since

internal wires may be misplaced or pinched or

safety guard return springs may be improperly

mounted. Certain cleaning agents such as gaso-

line, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may

damage plastic parts.

Ensure the switch is in the oﬀ position before

inserting battery pack. Inserting the battery

pack into power tools that have the switch on

invites accidents.

Some dust created by power

sanding, sawing, grinding,

drilling, and other construction activities con-

tains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth

defects or other reproductive harm. Some ex-

amples 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, depend-

ing 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 ap-

proved safety equipment, such as those dust

masks that are specially designed to ﬁlter out

microscopic particles.

To minimize splintering of the top surface of

the material being cut, place the JA1013 anti-

splinter insert (18) in the blade opening of the

footplate (12) (Fig. 6).

Note: This insert will only work with blades

that have ground sides such as T301CD, T101B,

T101D, and T101DP.

Dust Cover

Fit the hood before you connect the power tool

to the dust extraction system.

Attach the hood (19) to the power tool so that

the bracket locks into place on the shock protec-

tion guard (1) (Fig. 7).

Remove the hood (19) when working without

a dust extraction system, blade installation/

removal, and for miter/bevel cuts. To do this,

pull the hood forwards oﬀ the shock protection

guard (1).

Connecting The Dust Extraction

Fit the extraction outlet (20) in the recesses of

Operating Instructions

Disconnect battery pack from tool or place the switch in the locked or oﬀ posi-

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

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

Switch Lock

The switch lock (5) is designed to prevent ac-

cidental starts. To operate switch, press the

switch lock button with your thumb to the un-

lock symbol . To lock the switch, press the

switch lock button to the lock symbol (Fig. 1).

Variable Speed Trigger Switch

Your tool is equipped with a variable speed trig-

ger switch (6). The tool can be turned “ON”

or “OFF” by squeezing or releasing the trigger.

The speed can be adjusted from the minimum

to maximum nameplate SPM by the pressure

you apply to the trigger. Apply more pressure to

increase the speed and release pressure to de-

crease speed (Fig. 1).

Variable Speed Dial

Your jig saw is equipped with a variable speed

dial (7). The blade stroke rate may be adjusted

during cutting operation by presetting the dial on

or between any one of the six numbers (Fig. 1).

Stroke settings

1–2 Low stroke rate

3–4 Medium stroke rate

5–6 High stroke rate

Work Light

Your tool is equipped with a work light (4) for

better visibility during operation. When the tool

is turned on, the light turns on. When the tool

is turned oﬀ, there is a slight delay before the

light turns oﬀ.

Chip Blower

Your jig saw is equipped with a chip blower to

help keep the cutting line clear of chips.

Blower switched on

For working with wood, plastic and

similar material that produce large

amounts of sawdust.

Blower switched oﬀ

For working with metals and when

cooling agents are used, or with dust

collection accessory.

Protection Against Deep

Discharging

The lithium ion battery is protected against deep

discharging by the “Electronic Cell Protection

(ECP)”. When the battery is empty, the tool is

switched oﬀ by means of a protective circuit.

Temperature-dependent

Overload Protection

In normal conditions of use, the tool cannot be

overloaded. However, if the power tool is over-

loaded or not kept within the permitted battery

temperature range, the speed is reduced or the

power tool switches oﬀ.

If the tool speed is automatically reduced in

such situations, the tool will run again at full

speed once the permitted battery temperature

is reached or the load is reduced. During auto-

matic shut-down, switch oﬀ the power tool, al-

low the battery to cool down, and then switch

the power tool back on (Fig. 1).

Brake

When the trigger is released it activates the

electrical brake to stop the blade quickly. This

feature is especially useful when making repeti-

tive cuts.

Operating Instructions

Blade Orbit Selector Lever

Maximum cutting eﬃciency can be obtained by

adjusting the blade orbit selector lever to suit

the material being cut.

The following chart will help you determine

which setting to use for your application. This

chart is intended as a guideline only, and test

cuts in scrap material should be performed ﬁrst

to determine the best setting.

Setting 0

Hard materials such as metals or

thin sheet metals. This setting

can be used with knife blades,

grit edge blades, rasp work. and

down cutting blades.

Setting 1

Soft materials where cleaner

cutting or delicate scrolling work

is performed.

Setting 2

Medium density materials such

as harder woods or particle

board.

Setting 3

Soft materials such as wood,

plastics, etc. and when fast cut-

ting is more important than a

clean cut.

Footplate Angle Adjustment

The footplate may be tilted to allow angle cuts

up to 45° in either direction.

Note: Before adjusting the footplate, remove

anti-splinter insert, if used.

To adjust footplate, loosen screw with allen

wrench (11) provided, slide the footplate (12)

slightly forward towards the front of tool, then

rotate to desired angle. The detent slots will

hold the footplate ﬁrmly at 45°, and there are

additional position marks for 15° and 30° an-

gles. Intermediate angles may be set with a pro-

tractor. After positioning the footplate securely

tighten screw (22) (Fig. 9).

Flush Cutting

To allow the saw to make a perpendicular cut

close to a vertical surface in front of the saw, the

footplate may be repositioned as follows:

Loosen screw, move the footplate back in the 0°

alignment slot, and securely tighten screw. Note

that when the footplate is retracted in this man-

ner, only 90° cuts are possible, and the optional

cutting guide and anti-splinter insert guide may

not be used.

Tool Tips

Always hold the saw by the

insulated gripping surfaces

on the front of the tool and the switch handle.

Failure to hold the tool by the insulated gripping

surface may result in electric shock or electrocu-

tion if sawing into a blind area where live wiring

exits.

Always be certain that smaller workpieces are

securely fastened to a bench or other support.

Larger panels may be held in place by clamps on

a bench or sawhorses.

To begin a cut, clearly mark the cutting line, and

rest the front of the footplate on the work. En-

gage the switch, and move the blade into the

work using only enough forward pressure to

keep the blade cutting steadily. Do not force,

as this will not make the saw cut faster; let the

blade do the work.

When sawing metal or similar materials, apply

coolant/lubricant alongside the cutting line.

Use of reverse-tooth blade such as the Bosch

T101BR requires the orbital setting to be “0”

and that downward pressure be applied to the

top of the saw.

Operating Tips

Blade Selection

• Choose blades carefully, as the ability of the

jigsaw to make the fastest cuts, to follow tight

curves, to achieve the smoothest ﬁnish and/

or to maximize the life of the blade are direct-

ly related to the type of blade used.

• Always use a blade that is appropriate for the

cutting task.

• Always make a test cut in a piece of scrap ma-

terial.

• For tight curves it is best to use a narrow or

scroll blade.

• Most jigsaw blades have upwardpointing

teeth, which helps to pull the jigsaw against

the workpiece and minimizes vibration.

Blades with upward-pointing teeth produce

a clean cut on the bottom of the workpiece.

• Blades with downward-pointing teeth (re-

verse-tooth blade) can be used to produce a

clean cut on the top of the workpiece (that

side that faces the jigsaw’s footplate), such

as when cutting an already-installed counter-

top from the top. When using reverse-tooth

blades, downward force must be applied to

the jigsaw.

• Blades with teeth that point straight out (rath-

er than up or down) allow splinter-free cutting

on both sides of the workpiece. When using

such blades, downward force must be applied

to the jigsaw.

• The following types of blades should only be

used with orbital Setting 0:

– Blades with teeth that point downward (re-

verse-tooth blades).

– Blades with teeth that point straight out

rather than up or down.

– Carbide-tipped blades.

– Grit-edge blades.

Plunge Cutting

Plunge cutting is useful and time-saving in mak-

ing rough openings in softer materials. It is not

necessary to drill a hole for an inside or pocket

cut. The longest blade to be used for plunge cut-

ting is 3-1/8” (80 mm). Footplate must be set

0° setting.

Draw lines for the opening, hold the saw ﬁrmly,

tilt it forward so that the toe of the saw foot

rests on the work, but with the blade well clear

of the work. Turn the tool on and run at top

speed, and then very gradually lower the blade

(Fig. 10).

When it touches, continue pressing down on the

toe of the saw foot slowly pivoting the saw like

a hinge until the blade cuts through and the foot

rests ﬂat on the work. Then saw ahead on the

cutting line. We do not recommend plunge cut-

ting with a scroll blade. Do not try to plunge cut

into hard materials such as steel.

To make sharp corners, cut up to the corner,

then back up slightly before rounding the cor-

ner. After the opening is complete, go back to

each corner and cut it from the opposite direc-

tion to square it oﬀ.

Operating Tips

JA1010 Circle and Parallel Cutting

Guide (Sold separately)

The JA1010 is used for fast and accurate

straight and circle cutting. It includes the guide,

two clamps for attaching it to the jig saw, and

a center pin for guiding circle cuts. The clamps

and the centering pin can be stored on the guide

(Fig. 11).

One end of the clamp is used to attach the

guide’s bar to jig saws that have narrow tops on

their footplate mounting slots A and the other

end is used to attach the guide’s bar to jig saws

that have wide tops on their footplate mounting

slots B (Fig. 12).

When possible, attach the bar to the jig saw

using both clamps for enhanced grip and preci-

sion.

ATTACHING GUIDE TO JIG SAW

1. Orient the clamp so that the proper end is

placed on the jig saw foot from either side

of the tool.

2. Insert guide’s bar through a clamp, then

through the slots provided in foot, with the

guide’s fence orientated correctly for the in-

tended application, parallel cutting or circle

cutting. (If possible, place second clamp on

bar from opposite side of jig saw.)

3. Place lock knob(s) on proper side of

clamp(s) and securely tighten lock knob(s)

on the clamp(s) (Fig. 13).

Operating Tips

PARALLEL CUTTING

Parallel cuts can be made from 5/8” to 6” in

from the edge of the workpiece.

1. The guide fence surface needs to be posi-

tioned ALONGSIDE the workpiece (Fig. 14).

2. Hook clamp(s) onto footplate, adjust fence

to desired width and place lock knob(s) on

proper side of clamp(s).

3. Securely tighten lock knob(s) on the

clamp(s) (Fig. 13).

4. Insert battery pack onto jig saw, hold the

saw ﬁrmly, squeeze trigger and slowly push

the saw forward (Fig. 14).

CIRCLE CUTTING

Circle cuts can be made from 5” to 16-1/2” in

diameter.

1. Determine the center point of the desired

circle.

2. Drill a 3/16” (5 mm) center hole 7/8” (23

mm) deep in workpiece. (For enhanced pre-

cision, drill the hole using a drill press, if

possible).

3. Drill or plunge cut near the circle’s edge,

turn saw oﬀ, and disconnect battery pack

from the tool.

4. Insert guide bar through a clamp, then

through the slots provided in foot, from ei-

ther side of foot (Fig. 13). (If possible, place

second clamp on bar from opposite side of

jig saw).

5. Remove guide pin from end of guide, push

pin through proper hole provided in guide,

then into center hole of workpiece (Fig. 15).

– When used with a Bosch JS572 jig saw

or the GST18V-50 / GST18V-50B cordless

jig saw, the holes labeled for the JS572

should be used.

– For other jig saws, one of the other holes

should be used.

6. Measure the distance from the center of the

hole to the desired circle radius. Adjust that

measurement as necessary to account for

the width of the blade:

– When cutting a hole, cut from inside the

intended radius.

Operating Tips

– When cutting wheels or discs, cut from

the outside the intended radius.

7. Hook clamp(s) onto footplate, and position

the guide to that adjusted radius measure-

ment.

8. Place lock knob(s) on proper side of

clamp(s) and securely tighten lock knob(s)

on the clamp(s) (Fig. 12).

9. Insert battery pack onto jig saw, hold the

saw ﬁrmly, squeeze trigger and slowly push

the saw forward.

CIRCLE-CUTTING TIPS:

• Place small wedges in the cut as shown in Fig.

15, to keep the inner circle from spreading

when near the end of the cut.

• Use a thick jig saw blade, such as the Bosch

T101TP or T144DP whenever possible.

• Make sure that the jig saw’s orbital setting is

at 0 (zero).

• Cut slowly so the blade will stay straight in

the cut.

Maintenance

Service

NO USER SERVICEABLE

PARTS INSIDE. Preventive

maintenance performed by un au thorized per-

sonnel may result in misplacing of internal

wires and components which could cause seri-

ous hazard. We recom mend that all tool service

be performed by a Bosch Factory Service Center

or Authorized Bosch Service Station.

Batteries

Be alert for battery packs that are nearing

their end of life. If you notice decreased tool

performance or signiﬁcantly shorter running

time between charges then it is time to replace

the battery pack. Failure to do so can cause the

tool to operate improperly or damage the char-

ger.

Tool Lubrication

Your Bosch tool has been properly lubricated

and is ready for use.

Motors

The motor in your tool has been engineered for

many hours of dependable service. To maintain

peak eﬃciency of the motor, we recommend it

be examined every six months. Only a genuine

Bosch replacement motor specially designed for

your tool should be used.

Bearings

Bearings which become noisy (due to heavy load

or very abrasive material cutting) should be re-

placed at once to avoid overheating and motor

failure.

Cleaning

Certain cleaning agents and

solvents damage plastic

parts. Some of these are: gasoline, carbon tetra-

chloride, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammo-

nia and household detergents that contain am-

monia.

Ventilation openings and switch levers must be

kept clean and free of foreign matter. Do not

attempt to clean by inserting pointed objects

through opening.

CLEANING BLADE HOLDER

Clean the saw blade holder regularly. For this,

remove the saw blade from the tool and lightly

tap footplate on a level surface.

Regularly spray penetrating oil onto the saw

blade holder.

Check the guide roller regularly. If worn, it must

be replaced through an authorized Bosch Fac-

tory Service Center

Lubricate the guide roller occasionally with a

drop of oil.

To avoid accidents, always disconnect the battery pack from tool before ser-

vicing or cleaning.

Symboles relatifs à la sécurité

Les définitions ci-dessous décrivent le niveau de gravité pour chaque terme signalant un danger.

Veuillez lire le mode d’emploi et lire la signification de ces symboles.

C’est le symbole d’alerte relatif à la sécurité. Il est utilisé pour vous avertir de

l’existence possible d’un danger de lésion corporelle. Obéissez à tous les messages

relatifs à la sécurité qui suivent ce symbole pour éviter tout risque de blessure ou

même de mort.

DANGER indique une situation dangereuse qui, si elle n’est pas évitée, causera la

mort d’une personne ou une blessure grave.

AVERTISSEMENT indique une situation dangereuse qui, si elle n’est pas évitée,

pourrait causer la mort d’une personne ou une blessure grave.

MISE EN GARDE indique une situation dangereuse qui, si elle n’est pas évitée,

pourrait causer une blessure légère ou modérée.

Lisez toutes les consignes de sécurité, instructions, illustrations et spéciﬁcations

fournies avec cet outil électrique. Le non-respect de toutes les instructions ﬁgurant ci-

après pourrait causer un choc électrique, un incendie et/ou des blessures graves.

CONSERVEZ TOUS LES AVERTISSEMENTS ET TOUTES LES CONSIGNES DE SÉCURITÉ POUR RÉFÉRENCE FUTURE.

Dans les avertissements, le terme « outil électroportatif » se rapporte à votre outil branché sur le secteur (avec ﬁl) ou à

votre outil alimenté par piles (sans ﬁl).

1. Sécurité du lieu de travail

a. Maintenez le lieu de travail propre et bien éclairé. Les

risques d’accident sont plus élevés quand on travaille dans

un endroit encombré ou sombre.

b. N’utilisez pas d’outils électroportatifs dans des atmo-

sphères explosives, comme par exemple en présence

de gaz, de poussières ou de liquides inﬂammables. Les

outils électroportatifs produisent des étincelles qui ris-

quent d’enﬂammer les poussières ou les vapeurs.

c. Éloignez les enfants et les visiteurs quand vous vous

servez d’un outil électroportatif. Vous risquez une perte

de contrôle si on vous distrait.

2. Sécurité électrique

a. Les ﬁches des outils électroportatifs doivent corre-

spondre à la prise. Il ne faut absolument jamais modiﬁer

la ﬁche. N’utilisez pas d’adaptateur de prise avec des out-

ils électroportatifs munis d’une ﬁche de terre. Le risque

de choc électrique est moindre si on utilise une ﬁche non

modiﬁée sur une prise qui lui correspond.

b. Évitez tout contact du corps avec des surfaces reliées à

la terre tels que tuyaux, radiateurs, gazinières ou réfri-

gérateurs. Le risque de choc électrique augmente si votre

corps est relié à la terre.

c. N’exposez pas les outils électroportatifs à la pluie ou à

l’humidité. Si de l’eau pénètre dans un outil électroporta-

tif, le risque de choc électrique augmente.

d. Ne maltraitez pas le cordon. Ne vous en servez jamais

pour transporter l’outil électroportatif, pour le tirer ou pour

le débrancher. Éloignez le cordon de la chaleur, des huiles,

des arêtes coupantes ou des pièces mobiles. Les cordons

abîmés ou emmêlés augmentent les risques de choc élec-

trique.

e. Si vous utilisez un outil électroportatif à l’extérieur,

employez une rallonge conçue pour l’extérieur. Ces ral-

longes sont faites pour l’extérieur et réduisent le risque de

choc électrique.

f. S’il est absolument nécessaire d’utiliser l’outil électro-

portatif dans un endroit humide, utilisez une alimen-

tation protégée par un disjoncteur de fuite de terre

(GFCI). L’utilisation d’un disjoncteur GFCI réduit les ris-

ques de choc électrique.

3. Sécurité personnelle

a. Restez concentré, faites attention à ce que vous faites,

et servez-vous de votre bon sens lorsque vous utilisez

un outil électroportatif. N’employez pas d’outils élec-

troportatifs quand vous êtes fatigué ou sous l’emprise de

drogues, d’alcool ou de médicaments. Quand on utilise des

outils électroportatifs, il suﬃt d’un moment d’inattention

pour causer des blessures corporelles graves.

Avertissements généraux concernant la sécurité des outils lectroportatifs

160992A7EF_GST18V50_202203.indd 19 3/25/22 11:47 AM

-20-

page headingAvertissements généraux concernant la sécurité des outils lectroportatifs

b. Utilisez des équipements de sécurité person-

nelle. Portez toujours une protection oculaire. Le port

d’équipements de sécurité tels que des masques anti-

poussières, des chaussures de sécurité antidérapantes,

des casques de chantier et des protecteurs d’oreilles dans

des conditions appropriées réduira le risque de blessure

corporelle.

c. Évitez les démarrages intempestifs. Assurez-vous que

l’interrupteur est dans la position arrêt (Oﬀ) avant de

brancher l’outil dans une prise de courant et/ou un bloc-

piles, de le ramasser ou de le transporter. Le transport

d’un outil électroportatif avec le doigt sur la gâchette ou le

branchement de cet outil quand l’interrupteur est en posi-

tion de marche (ON) est une invite aux accidents.

d. Enlevez toutes les clés de réglage avant de mettre

l’outil électroportatif en marche. Si on laisse une clé sur

une pièce tournante de l’outil électroportatif, il y a risque

de blessure corporelle.

e. Ne vous penchez pas. Conservez toujours une bonne

assise et un bon équilibre. Ceci vous permettra de mieux

maîtriser l’outil électroportatif dans des situations inatten-

dues.

f. Habillez-vous de manière appropriée. Ne portez pas

de vêtements amples ou de bijoux. Attachez les cheveux

longs. N’approchez pas les cheveux, les vêtements ou les

gants des pièces en mouvement. Les vêtements amples,

les bijoux ou les cheveux longs risquent d’être happés par

les pièces en mouvement.

g. Si l’outil est muni de dispositifs permettant le raccorde-

ment d’un système d’aspiration et de collecte des pous-

sières, assurez-vous que ces dispositifs sont raccordés

et utilisés correctement. L’utilisation d’un dépoussiéreur

peut réduire les dangers associés à l’accumulation de

poussière.

h. Ne laissez pas la familiarité résultant de l’utilisation

fréquente des outils vous inciter à devenir

complaisant(e) et à ignorer les principes de sécurité

des outils. Une action négligente pourrait causer des bles-

sures graves en une fraction de seconde.

4. Utilisation et entretien des outils électro-

portatifs

a. Ne forcez pas sur l’outil électroportatif. Utilisez l’outil

électroportatif qui convient à la tâche à eﬀectuer. L’outil

qui convient à la tâche fait un meilleur travail et est plus sûr

à la vitesse pour lequel il a été conçu.

b. Ne vous servez pas de l’outil électroportatif si son in-

terrupteur ne parvient pas à le mettre en marche ou à

l’arrêter. Tout outil électroportatif qui ne peut pas être

commandé par son interrupteur est dangereux et doit être

réparé.

c. Débranchez la ﬁche de la prise secteur et/ou retirez le

bloc-piles de l’outil électrique (s’il est amovible) avant

d’y apporter de quelconques modiﬁcations, de changer

d’accessoire ou de ranger l’outil électrique. De telles

mesures de sécurité préventive réduisent le risque de dé-

marrage intempestif de l’outil électroportatif.

d. Rangez les outils électroportatifs dont vous ne vous

servez pas hors de portée des enfants et ne permettez

pas à des personnes qui ne connaissent pas l’outil élec-

troportatif ou qui ignorent ces consignes de s’en servir.

Les outils électroportatifs sont dangereux dans les mains

d’utilisateurs inexpérimentés.

e. Entretenez de façon appropriée les outils électriques

et les accessoires. Assurez-vous que les pièces en mou-

vement sont bien alignées et qu’elles ne se coincent pas,

qu’il n’y a pas de pièces cassées ou qu’il n’existe aucune

situation pouvant aﬀecter le fonctionnement de l’outil

électrique. Si l’outil est abîmé, faites-le réparer avant de

l’utiliser. De nombreux accidents sont causés par des out-

ils électroportatifs mal entretenus.

f. Maintenez les outils coupants aﬀûtés et propres.Les

outils coupants entretenus correctement et dotés de

bords tranchants aﬀûtés sont moins susceptibles de

coincer et sont plus faciles à maîtriser.

g. Utilisez l’outil électroportatif, les accessoires et les

embouts d’outil, etc. conformément à ces instructions,

en tenant compte des conditions de travail et des travaux à

réaliser. L’emploi d’outils électroportatifs pour des tâches

diﬀérentes de celles pour lesquelles ils ont été prévus peut

résulter en une situation dangereuse.

h. Gardez les poignées et les surfaces de préhension pro-

pres, sèches et exemptes de toute trace d’huile ou de

graisse. Les poignées et les surfaces de préhension glis-

santes ne permettent pas une manipulation et un contrôle

sûrs de l’outil dans des situations inattendues.

5. Utilisation et entretien des outils à piles

a. Rechargez les piles uniquement avec le chargeur spéci-

ﬁé par le fabriquant. Un chargeur qui convient à un type

de bloc-piles peut entraîner un risque d’incendie quand il

est utilisé avec un autre bloc-piles.

b. Utilisez des outils électroportatifs uniquement avec

les bloc-piles spéciﬁquement désignés pour eux.

L’utilisation de tout autre bloc-piles peut créer un risque de

blessures et d’incendie.

c. Lorsque le bloc-piles n’est pas utilisé, gardez-le à dis-

tances d’autres objets métalliques tels que des trom-

bones, des pièces de monnaie, des clés, des clous, des

vis ou de tout autre objet métallique pouvant faire une

connexion entre une borne et une autre. Court-circuiter

les bornes des piles peut causer des brûlures ou un in-

cendie.
