Starting and Stopping
1.
To
start
the tool, grasp both handles firmly and
pull the trigger.
Allow the motor to reach full speed
before beginning the cut.
NOTE:
An LED is turned on when the trigger is
pulled and will go off shortly after the trigger is
released.
2. To
vary
the speed, increase or decrease pressure
on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled, the
greater the speed.
3. To
stop
the tool, release the trigger. Allow the tool
to come to a complete stop before removing the
blade from a partial cut or laying down the tool.
Typical Application
1. Keep the blade off the workpiece until the motor
has reached full speed.
2. Start cutting on a surface where the greatest num
-
ber of teeth will be in contact with the workpiece
at one time.
Correct Incorrect
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 firmly so it
will not fall against the workpiece.

unplug the charger and remove the
battery pack from the charger or tool before

to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
