• Keep hands away from cutting area. Never reach underneath
the material for any reason. Hold front of saw by grasping the
contoured gripping area. Do not insert fingers or thumb into
the vicinity of the reciprocating blade and blade clamp. Do not
stabilize the saw by gripping the shoe.
• Keep blades sharp. Dull blades may cause the saw to
swerve or stall under pressure.
• When cutting pipe or conduit ensure that they are free
from water, electrical wiring, etc.
• Allow the motor to come to a complete stop before
withdrawing the blade from the kerf (the slot created by
cutting). A moving blade may impact the workpiece causing
a broken blade, workpiece damage or loss of control and
possible personal injury.
• Never hold work in your hand, lap or against parts of
your body when sawing. The saw may slip and the blade
could contact the body causing injury.
• Keep handles dry, clean, free from oil and grease. This
will enable better control of the tool.
• Clean out your tool often, especially after heavy use.
Dust and grit containing metal particles often accumulate on
interior surfaces and could create an electric shock hazard.
• Do not operate this tool for long periods of time. Vibration
caused by the operating action of this tool may cause
permanent injury to fingers, hands, and arms. Use gloves to
provide extra cushion, take frequent rest periods, and limit
daily time of use.
• Avoid prolonged contact with dust from power sanding,
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction
activities. Wear protective clothing and wash exposed
areas with soap and water. Allowing dust to get into your
mouth, eyes, or lay on the skin may promote absorption of
harmful chemicals.
WARNING: Wear appropriate hearing protection during use.
Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product
may contribute to hearing loss.
• An extension cord must have adequate wire size (AWG
or American Wire Gauge) for safety. The smaller the gauge
number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cable, that
is 16 gauge has more capacity than 18 gauge. An undersized
cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power
and overheating. When using more than one extension to make
up the total length, be sure each individual extension contains
at least the minimum wire size. The following table shows the
correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate
ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The
smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.
