Safty Information

Jig saw power tools are tools only to be used by a competent person. Jig saws have high speed moving blades that won't think twice about misplaced fingers. Due to the types of materials that the jigsaws cut through, alot of dust is often produced so it is recommended to wear a dust mask when you are using or in the vasinity of a jigsaw power tool in use.

Work surface

A easy mistake but one to avoid is the work surface you are cutting the board of wood on. Jigsaws cut in a vertival motion so the blade is cutting above and below the wood. Beware of whats underneath what you are cutting! As stated above its an easy mistake when you get carried away with your cutting you need a clear space underneath like a bridge between two supports.
