VIBRATION

Note: The vibration measurement was made under

standard conditions in accordance with: EN 62841-1

& EN 62841-2-11

Warning: Wear hearing protection!

The declared vibration total value has been

measured in accordance with a standard test

method and may be used for comparing one tool

with another.

The declared vibration total value may also be used

in a preliminary assessment of exposure.

(1.6) WARNING: When using this machine the

operator can be exposed to high levels of vibration

transmitted to the hand and arm.

It is possible that the operator could develop

“Vibration white finger disease” (Raynaud

syndrome). This condition can reduce the sensitivity

of the hand to temperature as

well as producing general numbness.

Prolonged or regular users of this machine should

monitor the condition of their hands and fingers

closely. If any of the symptoms become evident,

seek immediate

medical advice.

• The measurement and assessment of human

exposure to hand-transmitted vibration in the

workplace is given in:

EN 62841-1 & EN 62841-2-11

• Many factors can influence the actual vibration

level during operation e.g. the work surfaces

condition and orientation and the type and

condition of the machine being used. Before

each use, such factors should be assessed, and

where possible appropriate working practices

adopted. Managing these factors can help

reduce the effects of vibration:

Handling

• Handle the machine with care,

allowing the machine to do the work.

• Avoid using excessive physical effort on any of

the machines controls.

• Consider your security and stability,

and the orientation of the machine

during use.

Work Surface

• Consider the work surface material;

its condition, density, strength,

rigidity and orientation.

WARNING: The vibration emission during actual

use of the power tool can differ from the declared

total value depending on the ways in which the

tool is used.

The need to identify safety measures and to

protect the operator are based on an estimation

of exposure in the actual conditions of use (taking

account of all parts

of the operating cycle, such as the times the tool is

switched off, when it is running idle,

in addition to trigger time).

(2.1) GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

(These General Power Tool Safety Instructions are as

specified in EN 62841-1 & EN 62841-2-11;

UL 62841-1 & UL 62841-2-11; CSA-C22.2 No. 62841-

1 & CSA-C22.2 No. 62841-2-11).

WARNING: Read all safety warnings and

instructions. Failure to follow the warnings

and instructions 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.

(2.2) 1) General Power Tool

Safety Warnings [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, gasses or dust. Power

tools create sparks which may ignite the

dust or fumes.

c) Keep children and bystanders away while

operating power tool. Distractions can cause you

to lose control.

(2.3) 2) General Power Tool Safety Warnings

[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 grounded

surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges 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 entangled 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 reduces the risk of

electric shock.

f) If operating a power tool in a damp location is

unavoidable, use a residual current device (RCD)

protected supply. Use of an RCD reduces the risk

of electric shock.

(2.4) 3) General Power Tool Safety Warnings

[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, alcohol or medication. A

moment of inattention while operating power tools

may result in serious personal injury.

b) Use personal protective equipment. Always

wear eye protection. Protective equipment such

as dust masks, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat or

hearing protection used for appropriate conditions

will reduce personal injuries.

c) Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the

switch is in the off-position before connecting to

power source and or battery pack, picking up or

carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your

www.evolutionpowertools.com

finger on the switch or energising the power tools

that have the switch on invites accidents.

d) Remove any adjusting key or wrench from

blade bolt before turning the power tool on. A

wrench or key left attached to a rotating part of a

power tool may result in personal injury.

e) Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and

balance at all times. This enables better control of the

power tool in unexpected situations.

f) Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away

from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewellery or long

hair can be caught in moving parts.

g) If devices are provided for the connection of

dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure

that 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 complacent

and ignore tool safety principles. A careless

action can cause severe injury within a fraction of

a second.

(2.5) 4) General Power Tool Safety Warnings

[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 a rate for

which it was designed.

b) Do not use the power tool if the switch

does not turn it on or off. Any power tool

that cannot be controlled with the switch

is dangerous and must be repaired.

c) Disconnect the power tool from the power

source from the power tool before making

any adjustments, changing accessories, or

storing power tools. Such preventative safety

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 unfamiliar

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. Check for misalignment

or binding of moving parts, breakage of moving

parts and any other condition that may affect the

power tools 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.

Properly 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 instructions, taking

into account the working conditions 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.

(2.6) 5) Battery tool use and care

a) Recharge only with the charger specified by

the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable 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

designated battery packs. Use of any other

battery 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 connection 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 water. If

liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.

Liquid ejected from the battery 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 behaviour

resulting in fire, explosion or risk of injury.

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

or excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or

temperature above 130 °C may cause explosion.

Note: The temperature „130 °C“ can be replaced by

the temperature „265 °F“.

g) Follow all charging instructions and

do not charge the battery pack or tool

outside the temperature range specified in

the instructions. Charging improperly or at

temperatures outside the specified range may

damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.

6) Service

a) 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.

b) Never service damaged battery packs.

Service of battery packs should only be

performed by the manufacturer or authorized

service providers.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY RULES FOR YOUR

EVOLUTION JIGSAW

1. Do not expose to rain or water.

2. Wear hearing protection when necessary.

Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

3. Cutting/scraping blades and accessories can

become very hot. Take care when changing or

handling any bits or accessories.

4. Hold the tool by the insulated gripping

surfaces, especially when performing an

operation where the blade may contact hidden

wiring. If the blade contacts a ‘live’ wire, exposed

metal parts of the power tool could become ‘live’

and give the operator an electric shock.

www.evolutionpowertools.com

5. If possible, use clamps or a vice to hold your

work.

6. When cutting into walls, oors or similar

areas, make sure, as far as possible, that there

are no services (gas or water pipes, electric

cables etc) in the path of the blade. Striking

hidden services could cause injury to the user and

damage to the property.

7. Always disconnect the jigsaw from the power

supply before changing the blade. Never use

damaged or distorted blades.

8. Always allow the saw to come to a complete

halt before putting it down. A running tool may

bounce uncontrollably if the blade tip contacts any

surface.

9. Always consider the work environment and

wear the appropriate personal protection

equipment. This could include dust masks, eye

protection, safety footwear etc.

(2.7) HEALTH ADVICE

WARNING: When using this machine,
