SAW BAR
Cutting into electrical wiring in walls can cause blade, blade
clamp, and saw bar assembly to become electrically live.
Do not touch metal parts when cutting into a wall; grasp
only the insulated gripping surface provided on the tool.
Make sure hidden electrical wiring, water pipes, and
mechanical hazards are not in the blade path when cut-
ting into a wall.
