The enclosed blades are intended for cutting wood and plastic materials. Do not contact or attempt to saw through hard objects like nails, screws, etc. If the reciprocating saw blade strikes a hard object, the saw may kickback.

Keep hand and body away from and to the side of the blade while cutting. Blade could slip out of the material and strike you.

Remove saw from work and allow blade to come to a complete stop before next cut or removing cut-off piece. Shutting off the saw after each cut allows time to set up next operation and avoids accidental contact with a moving saw blade.

When removing the blade from the tool avoid contact with skin and use proper protective gloves when grasping the blade or accessory. Accessories may be hot after prolonged use.

The miter table attachment must be clamped to a workbench before mounting the saw to the miter table attachment. Firmly fasten tool to the table. Table with tool mounted is not designed to stand alone and may fall if not clamped.

When using the tool in the miter table attachment, the blade must never be used with the teeth pointing up. Contact with the blade while in use will cause an injury.

The saw must not be used with other miter boxes. Other miter boxes are not designed for this saw.

!WARNING Some dust created by power sanding, sawing,

grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

Lead from lead-based paints,

Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

Arsenic and chromium from chemically- treated lumber.

Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
