SERVICE
1. Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel.
Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel may result in a
risk of injury.
2. When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow
instructions in the Maintenance Section of this manual. Use of
unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance Instructions may create a
risk of shock or injury.
ADDITIONAL SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
1. Hold tool by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an
operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring. Contact with
a “live” wire will also make exposed metal parts of the tool live and shock the
operator.
2. Keep blades sharp. Sharp blades will do the job better and safer.
3. Keep hands away from cutting area. When sawing never reach
underneath or behind the material being cut for any reason.
4. When you have finished a cut be careful not to come into contact with
the blade. Turn off the motor immediately.
5. EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN BLIND CUTTING TO BE
CERTAIN THAT THERE ARE NO FOREIGN OBJECTS SUCH AS ELECTRICAL
WIRE, CONDUIT, PLUMBING PIPES, ETC., THAT MAY COME INTO
CONTACT WITH THE BLADE.
6. Some wood contains preservatives, which can be toxic. Take extra
care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these materials.
Request, and follow, all safety information available from your material
supplier.
7. Stay clear of end pieces that may fall after being cut off.
8. Do not operate the Cordless Reciprocating Saw with guide shoe
removed (See PIVOTING GUIDE SHOE section of this manual).
9. Do not attempt to plunge cut metal. Tool is not designed to plunge cut
metal and doing so may result in risk of injury.
