9 Maintenance
Be aware of the danger of injury
represented by the sharp saw blade.
All maintenance operations must be carried
out with the saw blade at rest. Switch off
the jig saw and disconnect from the mains
supply.
Clean the air intake aperture behind the
grooved roller supporting the saw blade. From
time to time lubricate the roller with a drop of
oil.
Have the carbon brushes replaced by the
manufacturer or in an appropriate specialist
workshop only.
