User manual BLACK & DECKER MT1203

[. . . ] Clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Properly maintained tools, with sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tool's operation. Use only accessories that are recommended by the manufacturer for your model. [. . . ] If the power pack does not charge properly--(1) Check current at receptacle by plugging in a lamp or other appliance. (2) Check to see if receptacle is connected to a light switch which turns power off when you turn out the lights. (3) Move charger and power pack to a surrounding air temperature of 40°F to 105°F. (4) If the receptacle and temperature are OK, and you do not get proper charging, take or send the power pack and charger to your local Black & Decker service center. The power pack should be recharged when it fails to produce sufficient power on jobs which were easily done previously. DO NOT CONTINUE using saw with its power pack in a depleted condition. To prolong power pack life, avoid leaving the power pack on charge for more than 8 hours. Although overcharging is not a safety concern, it can significantly reduce overall power pack life. When the battery is inserted into the charger, the red "Charging Indicator" light will come on indicating that there is contact between the battery and charger. The light will stay on as long as the battery is in the charger and the charger is plugged into a working outlet. It WILL NOT flash, go out or change to a different color when the charging cycle is complete. WARNING: It is important to support the work properly and to hold the drill firmly to prevent loss of control which could cause personal injury. Note: Ensure the forward / reverse switch is in the center (lock off) position. The back of the blade should be just touching the roller support guide. ROLLER SUPPORT GUIDE The roller support guide on your jig saw improves its performance when cutting tough materials by adding support to the blade. Lubricating the guide roller with a drop of oil from time to time will extend the roller life. sHOE ADJUSTMENT FOR ANGLE CUTTING The shoe plate can be angled to 45º on one side. To do this, first loosen the screw at the base of the saw head until the shoe can freely move. The shoe should then be repositioned in the forward slot and the screw retightened. To reset the shoe to a square cut, loosen the clamp screw and move the shoe so that the clamp screw is against the rear of the slot. Don't attempt to turn on the unit when blade is against material to be cut. Place front of shoe on material to be cut and hold jig saw shoe down firmly against the work surface while cutting.
