Resumen del manual
• Never saw near combustible liquids or gases. The tool must be used only for its prescribed purpose. Any use other than those mentioned in this Manual will be considered a case of misuse. The user and not the manufacturer shall be liable for any damage or injury resulting from such cases of misuse. The manufacturer shall not be liable for any changes made to the tool nor for any damage resulting from such changes. Even when the tool is used as prescribed it is not possible to eliminate all residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in connection with the tool’s construction and design: • Contact with the blade. • Kickback of work piece and parts of work piece. • Blade fracture. • Catapulting of blade pieces. • Damage to hearing if effective earmuffs are not worn. • Harmful emissions of sawdust when the machine is used in closed rooms. Always use supplementary dust extraction where possible. • Do not use blades that are deformed or cracked. • Fully unwind cable drum extensions to avoid potential overheating. • When an extension cable is required, you must ensure that it has the right ampere rating for your power tool and is in safe electrical condition. • After long working periods external metal parts and accessories could be hot. • Do not force the saw; let the tool do the work at a reasonable speed. Overloading will occur if too much pressure is applied and the motor slows resulting in inefficient cutting and possible damage to the motor. • Always remove the plug from the mains socket before making any adjustments or maintenance, including changing the blade. WARNINGS. Before connecting a tool to a power source (mains switch power point receptacle, outlet, etc.) be sure that the voltage supply is the same as that specified on the nameplate of the tool. A power source with a voltage greater than that specified for the tool can result in serious injury to the user, as well as damage to the tool. If in doubt, do not plug in the tool. Using a power source with a voltage less than the nameplate rating is harmful to the motor. Accessories The GMC RC1200 Reciprocating Saw is supplied in a storage case with the following accessories: • 1 x Demolition Blade • 1 x Wood Cutting Blade • 1 x Metal Cutting Blade • Hex key • Carry case Unpacking Due to modern mass production techniques, it is unlikely that your GMC Power Tool is faulty or that a part is missing. If you find anything wrong, do not operate the tool until the parts have been replaced or the fault has been rectified. Failure to do so could result in serious personal injury. Know your product Before using the Reciprocating Saw, familiarise yourself with all the operating features and safety requirements. Use the tool only for the applications intended. All other applications are expressly ruled out. 11 1. Trigger switch 2. Pendulum control 3. Lock-off button 4. Tool-free blade clamp 5. Pivoting shoe 6. Saw blade 7. Rotatable rear handle 8.

Always ensure that the saw is switched off and unplugged from the mains supply before installing or removing a blade. Wear work gloves when replacing a blade. 1. Loosen the blade clamp (4) by depressing the clamp lever (12). This will allow the saw blade to be inserted. 2. Whilst holding the blade clamp open, line up and insert the new saw blade. 3. Let go of the blade clamp lever (12) to lock the saw blade in position. 4. Pull on the blade to ensure it is securely fastened. WARNING. Make sure that the blade is securely fastened before starting the saw. Failure to do so may result in serious injury. Switching on and off 1. Connect the plug to the mains supply. 2. To start the saw, press the lock-off button (3) and squeeze the trigger switch (1). 3. There is no need to keep the lock-off button (3) depressed once the saw has started. However, if the trigger switch (1) is released, the lock-off button will re-engage as a safety precaution to prevent accidental operation. 4. In order to restart the saw, the both the lock-off button (3) and the trigger switch (1) must be pressed again. Varying the speed Vary the speed to suit the blade and the material being cut with the use of the speed control knob (9). Using the pendulum control 1. With the pendulum control (2) set at , the blade moves backwards and forwards only. This is called “straight cutting”. Use straight cutting when sawing hard materials such as metal. 2. With the pendulum control (2) set at position , the blade swings up and down as well as moving backwards and forwards. This “pendulum action cutting” is very efficient when cutting softer materials. Note. Pendulum action cutting can leave a rough finish. Use a file or rasp to clean up the cut edge if necessary. WARNING. Use the straight cutting mode when you wish to make curved or clean cuts, even when working with soft ...
