PRECAUTIONS ON USING JIG SAW
1. This Jig saw employs a high-power motor. If the
machine is used continuously at low speed, an extra
load is applied to the motor which can result in motor
seizure. Always operate the power tool so that the blade
is not caught by the material during operation. Always
adjust the blade speed to enable smooth cutting.
