WARNING! Read all safety warnings
and all instructions.
Failure to follow

the warnings and instructions may result in

Machine-related safety instruc-
tions

– Hold power tool by insulated gripping

surfaces, when performing an opera-
tion where the cutting accessory may
contact hidden wiring or its own cord.
Cutting accessory contacting a "live" wire
may make exposed metal parts of the power
tool "live" and could give the operator an
electric shock.

– Festool electric power tools must only

be installed on work tables provided by
Festool for this purpose.
If the tool is in-
stalled in another, or self-made, work table,
it can become unstable and result in serious
accidents.

– Wait until the power tool stops com-

pletely until placing it down. The tool can
become entangled and lead to a loss of con-
trol of the power tool.

– Deformed or cracked saw blades and saw

blades with blunt or broken cutting edges
must not be used.

– Always place the pendulum jigsaw on the

workpiece with the saw blade running.

– Wear suitable protection such as ear protec-

tion, safety goggles, a dust mask for work
which generates dust, and protective gloves
when working with raw materials and when
changing tools.

– Always secure the workpiece in such a man-

ner that it cannot move while being sawed.

– Always connect the machine to a dust ex-

tractor when work involves dust generation.

– Check the plug and the cable regularly and

should either become damaged, have them
replaced by an authorised after-sales ser-
vice workshop.

– Stroboscopic light can cause epileptic

seizures. Do not use this machine if you are
susceptible to epileptic seizures.

– Do not look into the stroboscope light.

Looking into the light source can damage
your vision.

5.3

Metalworking

The following precautions are to be tak-
en when processing metals for safety
reasons:

– Pre-connect a residual current circuit-break-

er (FI, PRCD).

– Connect the machine to a suitable dust ex-

tractor.

– Clean tool regularly of dust accumulations in

the motor housing.
