conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

►► To reduce the risk of serious injury, never alter or misuse the power tool.

Service

►► Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that

the safety of the power tool is maintained.

Specific Safety Rules for Reciprocating Saws

►► Keep hands away from the blade and cutting area. Do not reach underneath the workpiece. The blade is fully exposed under the workpiece.

►► Never hold the piece being cut in your hands or across your leg. It is important to support the work properly to minimize body exposure, blade binding, or loss of control.

►► Check that there is enough space under the workpiece for the reciprocating saw blade. If the saw blade strikes another object, it may cause a kickback.

►► Never cut material that is thicker than the length of the saw blade.

►► Hold the saw by the insulated handles when performing an operation in which the sawblade may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a “live” wire will make the exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.

►► Never use a dust extraction system when making cuts that can result in sparks (unless a spark trap is installed), such as cutting through nails and other ferrous materials. Sparks and hot embers can cause a fire in the dust extraction system.

►► Always check the saw blade to make sure it does not have missing teeth or is bent. Do not use a damaged saw blade.

►► Do not touch the saw blade after prolonged cutting. The saw blade may be hot and cause burns.

Specific Safety Rules for Battery Powered Tools

►► Remove the battery before adjusting the tool or changing saw blades. Failure to do so may result in the tool starting unexpectedly.

►► Use only battery packs specifically designated for use with the power tool. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fire.

►► Recharge the battery only with the charger specified by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of bat- tery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another battery pack.

►► When the battery pack is not in use, keep it away from 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.

►► Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from the bat- tery; 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.

►► Do not place batteries near fire or heat. This will reduce the risk of explosion and possibly injury.

Respiratory Exposure Safety Warnings

Substantial or repeated inhalation of dust and other airborne contaminants, in particular those with a smaller particle size, may cause respiratory or other illnesses. Various dusts created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling and other construc- tion activities contain chemicals or substances known (to the State of California and others) to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals/ substances are: lead from lead-based paints; crystalline silica from bricks, cement, and other masonry products; arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber; and some wood

dusts, especially from hardwoods, but also from some soft- woods such as Western Red Cedar.

The risk from 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 and use a properly functioning dust extraction system. When the inhalation of dust cannot be substantially controlled, i.e., kept at or near the ambient (background) level, the operator and any bystanders should wear a respirator approved by NIOSH for the type of dust encountered.
