GENERAL SAFETY RULES
READ AND SAVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE USE. Before use, be sure everyone using this tool reads and understands this manual as well
as any labels packaged with or attached to the tool.
1. KEEP WORK AREA CLEAN AND WELL LIT. Cluttered, dark work
areas invite accidents.
2. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use your power tool
in rain, damp or wet locations or in the presence of explosive atmo-
spheres (gaseous fumes, dust or flammable materials). Remove
materials or debris that may be ignited by sparks.
3. KEEP BYSTANDERS AWAY. Children and bystanders should be kept
at a safe distance from the work area to avoid distracting the opera-
tor and contacting the tool or extension cord.
4. PROTECT OTHERS IN THE WORK AREA from debris such as chips
and sparks. Provide barriers or shields as needed.
5. MAKE WORKSHOP CHILD PROOF with padlocks, master switches,
or by removing starter keys.
6. GROUNDED TOOLS MUST BE PLUGGED INTO AN OUTLET PROP-
ERLY INSTALLED AND GROUNDED IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL
CODES AND ORDINANCES. Never remove the grounding prong or
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adaptor plugs. Check
with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the
outlet is properly grounded. If the tool should electrically malfunction
or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry
electricity away from the user.
7. DOUBLE INSULATED TOOLS ARE EQUIPPED WITH A POLARIZED
PLUG (ONE BLADE IS WIDER THAN THE OTHER.) THIS PLUG
WILL FIT IN A POLARIZED OUTLET ONLY ONE WAY. IF THE PLUG
DOES NOT FIT FULLY IN THE OUTLET, REVERSE THE PLUG. IF IT
STILL DOES NOT FIT, CONTACT A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN TO
INSTALL A POLARIZED OUTLET. DO NOT CHANGE THE PLUG IN
ANY WAY. Double insulation eliminates the need for the three
wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.
8. GUARD AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK. Prevent body contact with
grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-
tors. When making blind or plunge cuts, always check the work
area for hidden wires or pipes. Hold your tool by insulated nonmetal
grasping surfaces. Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to
reduce shock hazards.
9. DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN OR USE IN DAMP
LOCATIONS.
10. DO NOT ABUSE THE CORD. NEVER USE THE CORD TO CARRY
THE TOOLS OR PULL THE PLUG FROM AN OUTLET. KEEP CORD
AWAY FORM HEAT, OIL, SHARP EDGES OR MOVING PARTS. RE-
PLACE DAMAGED CORDS IMMEDIATELY. Damaged cords in-
crease the risk of electric shock.
11. KNOW YOUR POWER TOOL. Read this manual carefully to learn
your power tool’s applications and limitations as well as potential
hazards associated with this type of tool.
12. STAY ALERT, WATCH WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND USE COM-
MON SENSE WHEN OPERATING A POWER TOOL. DO NOT USE
TOOL WHILE TIRED OR UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF DRUGS, AL-
COHOL, OR MEDICATION. A moment of inattention while operating
power tools may result in serious personal injury.
13. DRESS PROPERLY. Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry. Wear a
protective hair covering to contain long hair. These may be caught in
moving parts. When working outdoors, wear rubber gloves and
insulated non-skid footwear. Keep hands and gloves away from
moving parts.
14. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Be sure your
tool is turned off before plugging it in. Do not use a tool if the power
switch does not turn the tool on and off. Do not carry a plugged-in
tool with your finger on the switch.
15. REMOVE ALL ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form the habit
of checking that adjusting keys, wrenches, etc. are removed from
the tool before turning it on.
16. DO NOT OVERREACH. MAINTAIN CONTROL. Keep proper footing
and balance at all times. Maintain a firm grip. Use extra care when
using tool on ladders, roofs, scaffolds, etc.
17. USE SAFETY EQUIPMENT. Everyone in the work area should wear
safety goggles or glasses with side shields complying with
current safety standards. Everyday eyeglasses only have impact
resistant lenses. They are not safety glasses. Wear hearing
protection during extended use and a dust mask for dusty opera-
tions. Hard hats, face shields, safety shoes, etc. should be used
when specified or necessary. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby.
18. KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
19. NEVER STAND ON TOOL. Serious injury could occur if the tool is
tipped or if the cutting tool is unintentionally contacted.
20. KEEP HANDS AWAY FROM ALL CUTTING EDGES AND MOVING
PARTS.
21. SECURE WORK. Use a clamp, vise or other practical means to hold
your work securely, freeing both hands to control the tool.
22. DO NOT FORCE TOOL. Your tool will perform best at the rate for
which it was designed. Excessive force only causes operator
fatigue, increased wear and reduced control.
23. USE THE RIGHT TOOL. Do not use a tool or attachment to do a job
for which it is not recommended. For example, do not use a circular
saw to cut tree limbs or logs. Do not alter a tool.
24. UNPLUG TOOL when it is not in use, before changing accessories
or performing recommended maintenance.
25. STORE IDLE TOOLS. When not in use, store your tool in a dry,
secured place. Keep out of reach of children.
26. NEVER LEAVE THE TOOL RUNNING UNATTENDED. Turn power
off. Do not leave the tool until it comes to a complete stop.
27. CHECK FOR DAMAGED PARTS. Inspect guards and other parts
before use. Check for misalignment, binding of moving parts, im-
proper mounting, broken parts and any other conditions that may
affect 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. A guard or other damaged part should be properly re-
paired or replaced by a
MILWAUKEE
service facility. For all repairs,
insist on only identical replacement parts.
