contact your local distributor or a service center.
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury,
always unplug the tool before
attaching or removing accessories. Use
only specifi cally recommended accessories.
Others may be hazardous.
Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. Before use, examine the
general condition of your tool. Inspect guards,
switches, tool cord set and extension cord for
damage. Check for loose screws, misalignment,
binding of moving parts, improper mounting, bro-
ken parts and any other condition that may affect
its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration
occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have the
problem corrected before further use. Do not use a
damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “DO NOT USE”
until repaired (see “Repairs”).
Under normal conditions, relubrication is not neces-
sary until the motor brushes need to be replaced.
After six months to one year, depending on use,
return your tool to the nearest MILWAUKEE service
facility for the following:
• Lubrication
• Brush inspection and replacement
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears,
spindles, bearings, housing, etc.)
• Electrical inspection (switch, cord, armature,
etc.)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and electri-
cal operation
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury,
electric shock and damage to the
tool, never immerse your tool in liquid or allow
a liquid to fl ow inside the tool.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury,
always unplug your tool before
performing any maintenance. Never disas-
semble the tool or try to do any rewiring
on the tool’s electrical system. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep the tool
handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use
only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean your tool
since certain cleaning agents and solvents are
harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some
of these include: gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thin-
ner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents containing
ammonia. Never use fl ammable or combustible
solvents around tools.
Repairs
If your tool is damaged, return the entire tool to the
nearest service center.

Typical Application
1. Keep the blade off of the workpiece until the
motor has reached the selected speed.
2. Start cutting on a surface where the greatest
number of teeth will be in contact with the work-
piece at one time (Fig 2).
3. Place the material guide against the workpiece
and lower the moving saw blade into the cut.
4. Do not bear down while cutting. The weight of
the tool will supply adequate pressure for the
fastest cutting.
5. When completing a cut, hold the tool fi rmly so it
will not fall against the workpiece (Fig. 3).
