time, result from mixture of oil or water with dust particles. Be extremely careful of dust disposal, materials in fine particle form may be explosive. Do not throw contents on an open fire.

GFCI and personal protection devices like electrician’s rubber gloves and footwear will further enhance your personal safety.

Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC power supply. While the tool may appear to work, the electrical components of the AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard to the operator.

Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely control the power tool.

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 gasoline, carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.

!WARNING 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 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, depending 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 approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

JS470EB, JS470E specifications

The Bosch Power Tools JS470E and JS470EB are two exceptional jigsaws designed for both professional and hobbyist craftsmen who prioritize accuracy, power, and versatility in their cutting tasks. Known for their robust construction and innovative features, these jigsaws stand out in the competitive market of power tools.

A significant feature of both models is their powerful 7.0-amp motor, which offers a variable speed range from 500 to 3,100 strokes per minute. This capability enables precise control over cutting speed, making it suitable for various materials such as wood, metal, and plastic. The jigsaws also feature Bosch's patented Smart Grip technology, which provides better handling and comfort during extended use, thereby reducing user fatigue.

One of the standout characteristics of the JS470E and JS470EB is the included Bosch Precision Control II system. This technology ensures straight and accurate cuts, minimizing blade wander and resulting in cleaner lines. Both models incorporate a four orbital-action setting, allowing users to adjust the saw’s cutting action based on their specific material and application needs. This versatility makes them suitable for intricate work as well as faster, rough cuts.

Safety is another key consideration in the design of the JS470E and JS470EB. Both tools come equipped with a blade ejection system that allows for quick and tool-free blade changes, reducing downtime. Their robust base plates also add to stability, ensuring that users can achieve consistent results, even when cutting through tough or dense materials.

The JS470EB model further enhances usability with its ergonomic design. It comes with an onboard dust blower that keeps the cutting line visible by clearing away debris, an essential feature during detailed work. Additionally, the tool is equipped with a soft-grip handle, ensuring a secure and comfortable grip, which is especially important during prolonged usage.

In summary, the Bosch Power Tools JS470E and JS470EB jigsaws offer a compelling combination of power, precision, and user-friendly features. Their advanced technologies, such as the Precision Control II system and ergonomic designs, ensure they can meet the demands of various cutting tasks, making them an excellent addition to any toolkit.
