PRIMARY USES
1. Curved and Straight Cuts in Wood for Carpentry and Joinery
Primary Use: The GST 650 (450W, 65mm cutting depth) and GST 700 (500W, 70mm cutting depth) are handheld jigsaws used for precise straight and curved cuts in wood, sheet metal, and plastics. Essential for carpenters, joiners, and furniture makers requiring versatile cutting in various materials.
How it helps: For carpenters and woodworking professionals, the jigsaw delivers high cutting performance with its powerful motor and variable speed control. The 4-stage pendulum action (on GST 700) enhances cutting efficiency and allows for smoother cuts, while the tool-free SDS blade change system ensures quick blade replacements. Both models feature a 45° bevel cutting baseplate for angled cuts.
2. Metal and Plastic Cutting
Primary Use: Cuts through aluminium (up to 10mm) and steel (GST 650: 3mm, GST 700: 6mm) for installation and fabrication work.
How it helps: Variable speed control allows users to match the cutting speed to the material. The GST 650’s lightweight design (1.9kg) and slim handle make it easy to maneuver on job sites, while the vibration-reduction system integrated into the handle provides stable cutting performance.

SECONDARY USES

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear safety goggles, hearing protection, and heavy-duty gloves. Use appropriate respiratory protection when cutting materials that generate dust.
Electrical Safety: Check power cord and extension cord for damage before use. Do not operate in wet conditions.
Dust Hazard: Some materials generate hazardous dust. Use appropriate respiratory protection (at least P2 or N95 mask) and dust extraction.
Kickback Hazard: Maintain firm grip and proper stance. Do not apply excessive pressure—allow the tool to do the work.
Blade Safety: Let the saw blade cool down before removing it—there is a risk of injury when touching hot blades. Ensure the blade is securely seated after insertion.
Maintenance: Unplug tool before changing blades or performing maintenance. Allow the tool to cool before storing.
Training requirement: Operators should be familiar with correct usage, blade selection, and safety procedures. Supervisors should ensure all safety protocols are followed.
2. FIRST AID MEASURES
Eye Injury (debris): Do not rub. Rinse immediately with plenty of clean water for at least 15 minutes, holding eyelids open. Seek medical attention.
Cut Injury: Apply direct pressure to stop bleeding. Clean wound with clean water. Cover with sterile dressing. Seek medical attention if bleeding is profuse or the wound is deep.
Skin Contact (dust): Wash skin with soap and water. If irritation develops, seek medical attention.
Inhalation of Dust: Move a person to fresh air. If symptoms persist (coughing, difficulty breathing), seek medical attention.
3. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
Flammability: The tool is not flammable, but plastic casing may burn if exposed to fire. Sparks generated during cutting can ignite flammable materials.
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide (CO₂) for fires involving tools.
Fire Response: In event of fire, evacuate the area and call emergency services. Use appropriate extinguishers; water may be used for general fires but not for electrical fires where live equipment is involved.
