2. Istruzioni di sicurezza

Always adhere to the following safety guidelines to minimize the risk of electric shock, fire, and serious injury.

• Sicurezza dell'area di lavoro: Mantenere l'area di lavoro pulita e ben illuminata. Aree disordinate o buie possono favorire incidenti. Non utilizzare utensili elettrici in atmosfere esplosive, come in presenza di liquidi, gas o polveri infiammabili. Gli utensili elettrici generano scintille che possono incendiare la polvere o i fumi. Tenere lontani bambini e astanti durante l'utilizzo di un utensile elettrico. Le distrazioni possono causare la perdita di controllo.
• Sicurezza elettrica: Le spine degli elettroutensili devono essere adatte alla presa. Non modificare mai la spina in alcun modo. Non utilizzare adattatori con elettroutensili con messa a terra. Le spine non modificate e le prese adatte ridurranno il rischio di scosse elettriche. Evitare il contatto del corpo con superfici con messa a terra, come tubi, radiatori, cucine e frigoriferi. Il rischio di scosse elettriche aumenta se il corpo è messo a terra. Non esporre gli elettroutensili alla pioggia o a condizioni di bagnato. L'ingresso di acqua in un elettroutensile aumenta il rischio di scosse elettriche. Non abusare del cavo. Non utilizzare mai il cavo per trasportare, tirare o scollegare l'elettroutensile. Tenere il cavo lontano da calore, olio, bordi taglienti o parti in movimento. I cavi danneggiati o aggrovigliati aumentano il rischio di scosse elettriche.
• Sicurezza personale: Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury. Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries. Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source, picking up or carrying the tool.
• Uso e cura dell'utensile elettrico: Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed. Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired. Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally. Store idle power tools out of the reach of children and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Servizio: Fate riparare il vostro elettroutensile da un riparatore qualificato utilizzando solo parti di ricambio identiche. Ciò garantirà che la sicurezza dell'elettroutensile sia mantenuta.

4. Impostazione

Before operating the jig saw, ensure it is properly set up and all safety precautions are observed.

4.1. Installazione della lama

1. Scollegare l'alimentazione: Always unplug the jig saw from the power outlet before installing or changing blades.
2. Open Blade Clamp: Locate the quick-change blade chuck system. Depending on the design, this may involve lifting a lever, twisting a collar, or pressing a button to open the blade clamp.
3. Inserire la lama: Inserire il gambo della lama del seghetto alternativo appropriata nel vano della lamaamp opening. Ensure the teeth of the blade are facing forward (towards the front of the tool). Push the blade in until it clicks or is firmly seated.
4. Lama sicura: Sganciare la lama clamp mechanism to secure the blade. Gently pull on the blade to confirm it is locked in place and cannot be easily removed.
5. Seleziona il tipo di lama: Use blades suitable for the material you intend to cut (e.g., wood, metal, plastic). The CT15189 supports multiple choices for blades.

4.2. Regolazione della piastra di base (tagli smussati)

The base plate can be angled for bevel cuts. Refer to your specific model's instructions for unlocking and setting the desired angle. Ensure the base plate is securely tightened before operation.

4.3. Collegamento all'alimentazione

Connect the power cord to a standard 220-230V~50/60HZ electrical outlet. Ensure the power switch on the tool is in the "OFF" position before plugging in.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

Follow these steps for effective and safe operation of your jig saw.

5.1. Preparazione del materiale

• Pezzo sicuro: Sempre clamp fissare saldamente il pezzo in lavorazione su una superficie stabile per evitare movimenti durante il taglio.
• Segna la linea di taglio: Clearly mark your desired cutting line on the workpiece.

5.2. Adjusting Orbital Action

The CT15189 features a 4-position orbital action. Adjust this setting based on the material and desired cut quality:

• Posizione 0 (nessuna azione orbitale): For fine, precise cuts in wood, metal, and plastics. Slower cutting, but cleaner edges.
• Posizioni 1-3 (Incrementoasing Azione orbitale): For faster, more aggressive cuts in wood and softer materials. Higher numbers provide more aggressive action, suitable for rough cuts.

5.3. Regolazione della velocità

The jig saw has 6 different levels of preselected timing function for cutting different materials. Use the speed control dial to set the appropriate strokes per minute (700-3000/min):

• Velocità inferiori: Ideal for cutting metals, plastics, and delicate materials to prevent overheating and melting.
• Velocità più elevate: Suitable for faster cutting in wood and softer materials.

5.4. Effettuare un taglio

1. Posizione di partenza: Place the front edge of the jig saw's base plate flat on the workpiece, ensuring the blade is clear of the material.
2. Avvia lo strumento: Turn on the jig saw and allow it to reach full speed before engaging the blade with the material.
3. Inizia il taglio: Gently guide the blade into the material along your marked line. Apply steady, even pressure. Do not force the tool; let the blade do the work.
4. Mantieni il contatto: Keep the base plate flat against the workpiece throughout the cut to ensure stability and accuracy.
5. Taglio finale: Once the cut is complete, turn off the tool and wait for the blade to stop completely before lifting the jig saw from the workpiece.

5.5. Tagli a tuffo (tagli interni)

For internal cuts without a pilot hole, tilt the jig saw forward so the front edge of the base plate rests on the workpiece and the blade is above the surface. Start the tool, then slowly pivot the tool downwards until the blade plunges through the material. Once through, flatten the base plate and proceed with the cut.

6. Manutenzione

Una manutenzione regolare garantisce la longevità e le prestazioni ottimali del vostro seghetto alternativo.

6.1. Pulizia

• Scollegare l'alimentazione: Scollegare sempre lo strumento prima della pulizia.
• Rimuovere polvere e detriti: Use a brush or compressed air to remove sawdust and debris from the ventilation openings, blade area, and base plate. The unique sealing structure helps prevent dust from entering the reciprocating system.
• Pulisci: Pulisci l'esterno dello strumento con un pannoamp stoffa. Non utilizzare prodotti chimici aggressivi o detergenti abrasivi.

6.2. Sostituzione della lama

Replace blades when they become dull or damaged. Refer to Section 4.1 for blade installation instructions. Always use sharp blades for efficient and safe cutting.

6.3. Ispezione del cavo
