METAL CUTTING

Never use gasoline or any flammable liquid as a lubricant. Sparking from the motor may cause it to ignite into flames.

•When cutting metals other then copper, brass or aluminum, always use a lubricant, such as cutting oil, to keep the blade cool. This will prolong the life of the blade as well as speeding up the cutting process.

•Make sure the work piece is held securely in place. Hold smaller pieces, such as pipe or conduit, in a vise or attach to the workbench with clamps.

•To eliminate vibration, always cut close to the clamping point.

•When cutting thin sheets of metal, place a piece of plywood on either side to control vibration and prevent tearing.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

Always remove the battery pack before attempting cleaning or maintenance.

This Cordless Jigsaw is lubricated before it leaves the factory. This lubrication should last for the life of the tool. No further lubrication is required.

Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool. Never let any liquid get inside the casing. Never immerse any part of the tool in a liquid. Always keep the ventilation openings clear.

Always clean the battery pack using only a dry cloth. Do not use liquids. Always unplug the charger before cleaning it.

Regularly clean the ventilation slots in your tool and charger using only a soft brush or dry cloth.

Never open the Cordless Jigsaw case, battery pack or charger. Do not attempt to repair the Cordless Jigsaw, battery pack or charger yourself. Opening any of these parts will void your warranty.

ACCESSORIES

Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool may become hazardous when used on another tool.

Always attach grounded (3-prong) extension cords to grounded (3-hole) outlets.

If you must use an extension cord, be sure that the gauge is large enough to carry the amount of current necessary for your power tool. If not, your tool may experi- ence a loss of power, excessive voltage drop or overheating. The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord (see table below).
