future reference.

Pass on your electrical tool only together with these

documents.

Hold 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 electrical tool "live" and

could give the operator an electric shock.

of power cables, gas lines or water pipes (e.g. using

a metal detector).

Dust from material such as paint containing lead,

some wood species, minerals and metal may be

harmful. Contact with or inhalation of the dust may

cause allergic reactions and/or respiratory diseases

to the operator or bystanders.

Certain kinds of dust are classified as carcinogenic

such as oak and beech dust especially in

conjunction with additives for wood conditioning

(chromate, wood preservative). Material containing

asbestos must only be treated by specialists.

- Where the use of a dust extraction device is

possible it shall be used.

- To extract dust more efficiently, use the protective

cap (5) and a suitable Metabo vacuum cleaner

together with this tool.

- The work place must be well ventilated.

- The use of a dust mask of filter class P2 is recom-

mended.

Follow national requirements for the materials you

want to work with.

During work, the workpiece must lay flat and be

secured against moving, e.g. using clamps.

Do not try to saw extremely small workpieces.

When sawing, ensure that the footplate makes

secure contact with the workpiece.

Do not switch the machine on while the saw blade is

touching the workpiece.

When interrupting a cut for any reason, release the

trigger and hold the saw motionless in the material

until the saw blade comes to a complete stop. Never

attempt to remove the saw from the workpiece while

the saw blade is in motion or kickback may occur.

When restarting a saw in the workpiece, centre the

saw blade in the kerf and check that saw teeth are

not engaged into the material. If the saw blade

seizes, it may kickback from the workpiece when

the saw is restarted.

Danger of injury due to the sharp jigsaw blade. After

stopping work, the jigsaw blade may still be hot.

Wear protective gloves.

Keep hands well away from the sawing area and the

saw blade. Do not reach underneath the workpiece.

Remove chips and similar material only with the

machine at standstill.

Remove the battery pack from the machine before

any adjustments, conversions or servicing are

performed.

Before fitting the battery pack, make sure that the

machine is switched off.

Remove the battery pack from the machine when

not in use.
