FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONSPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation
where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact
with a “live” wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool “live” and shock the operator.
2. Keep hands away from all cutting edges and moving parts.
3. Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable
or missing, contact a

MILWAUKEE

service facility for a free replacement.
4. Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to
a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable
and may lead to loss of control.
5. 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 paint
• 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 spe-
cially designed to filter out microscopic particles.

WARNING!
TOOL ASSEMBLY
To reduce the risk of injury, always
lock trigger or remove battery
pack before changing or removing
accessories. Only use accessories
specifically recommended for this
tool. Others may be hazardous.
Selecting a Blade
The Quik-Lok® Blade Clamp can be used
with all 1/2" shank universal Sawzall®
blades. Use
MILWAUKEE
High Perfor-
mance Super Sawzall® blades for best per-
formance. 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, rough-
ing-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.
