TOOL ASSEMBLY

WARNING!

To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug tool before attaching or removing accessories or making adjustments. Use only specifically recommended accessories. Others may be hazardous.

Fig. 1

Selecting a Blade

Use MILWAUKEE Sawzall® Blades for best performance. When selecting a blade, choose the right type and length.

Many types of blades are available for a variety of applications: cutting metal, wood, nail-embedded wood, scroll cutting, roughing-in, and contours.

Many lengths are also available. Choose a length long enough to extend beyond the shoe and your work throughout the stroke. Do not use blades less than 3-1/2" long since they won't extend beyond the shoe throughout the stroke.

For best performance and longest life, see “Accessories” to select the best blade for the job.

Quik-Lok®Blade Clamp Maintenance

•Periodically clean dust and debris from the Quik-Lok®Blade Clamp with dry compressed air.

•If the collar resists twisting, twist the collar back and forth to shake debris loose.

•Periodically lubricate Quik-Lok ® Blade Clamp with a dry lubricant such as graphite.

Removing broken blades from the Quik-Lok®Blade Clamp

Unplug the tool before removing blades. Broken blades can be removed by the following methods.

•Point the tool downward, twist the collar, and shake the tool up and down (DO NOT turn the tool on while your fingers are holding the blade clamp open). The shank of the broken blade should drop out of the clamp.

•If shaking the tool doesn't work...

In most cases, a corner of the broken blade will extend beyond the blade clamp. Simply twist the collar and pull the broken blade out of the clamp by this corner.

•If the broken stub doesn't extend far enough to be grabbed by its corner, use a thin blade with small teeth (such as a metal cutting blade) to hook the blade that is jammed in the clamp while twisting the collar and pull it out.

Quik-Lok®Blade Clamp (Fig. 2)

Unplug the tool before changing blades. Be sure the spindle and blade clamp areas are clean. Metal chips and sawdust may prevent the Quik-Lok®Blade Clamp from clamping securely.

3.Twist collar in the opposite direction of the arrow to ensure that the blade is locked into the clamp.

4.Tug on blade to make sure it is securely locked in place.

5.To remove a blade, twist collar in the direction of the arrow while pulling on the blade. Be careful when handling hot blades.
