• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces,
when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting
accessory contacting a "live" wire may make ex-
posed metal parts of the power tool "live" and could
give the operator an electric shock.
• 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.
•To reduce the risk of explosion, electric shock
and property damage, always check the work
area for hidden gas pipes, electrical wires or
water pipes when making blind or plunge cuts.
• Keep hands away from all cutting edges and
moving parts. Do not reach underneath the
workpiece.
• Do not use dull or damaged blade, which can
cause excessive friction, blade binding and kick-
back.
• Know your workpiece. Remove nail and screw
heads before scraping. Hitting hard objects with
blade may cause the tool to kick back.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free
replacement.
• 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
specially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles.
