SERVICE
Have your power tool serviced by a qualified repair person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.
Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting
accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the work by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
When not in use, place tool on its side on a stable surface where it will not cause a tripping or falling
hazard. Some tools with large battery packs will stand upright but may be easily knocked over.
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.
Use extra caution when cutting overhead and pay particular attention to overhead wires which may
be hidden from view. Anticipate the path of falling branches and debris ahead of time.
When cutting pipe or conduit ensure that etc.

lead from lead-based paints,
crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety
equipment, such as those dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
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:
Always wear proper personal hearing protection that conforms to ANSI S12.6
(S3.19) during use. Under some conditions and duration of use, noise from this product may
contribute to hearing loss.
WARNING:
ALWAYS use safety glasses. Everyday eyeglasses are NOT safety glasses. Also
use face or dust mask if cutting operation is dusty. ALWAYS WEAR CERTIFIED SAFETY
EQUIPMENT:
WARNING:
Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construc-
tion activities contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects
or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
WARNING:
Use of this tool can generate and/or disperse dust, which may cause serious and
permanent respiratory or other injury. Always use NIOSH/OSHA approved respiratory protection
appropriate for the dust exposure. Direct particles away from face and body.
