Plunge Cutting
Plunge cuts are made in the middle of the
workpiece when it can not be cut from an
edge. We recommend using a Sawzall
®
reciprocating saw or jig saw for this type of
cut. However, if you must use a circular saw
to make a plunge cut, USE EXTREME CAU-
TION. To maintain control of the saw during
plunge cutting, keep both hands on the saw.
1. Beginning at a corner, line up the sight line
with your cutting line. Tilt the saw forward,
fi rmly fi xing the front of the shoe on the
workpiece (Fig. 8). The blade should be
just above cutting line, but not touching
it. Raise the lower guard using the lower
guard lever.
2. To start the saw, push the lock-off button
down while pulling the trigger. Allow the
motor to reach full speed before beginning
cut. Using the front of the shoe as a hinge
point, gradually lower the back end of the
saw into the workpiece. Release the lower
guard lever and grasp the front handle.
3. When the shoe rests fl at against work-
piece, advance the saw to the far corner
(Fig. 9). Release the trigger and allow the
blade to come to a complete stop before
removing it from workpiece. Repeat the
above steps for each side of the opening.
Use a Sawzall
®
reciprocating saw, jig saw
or small hand saw to fi nish the corners if
they are not completely cut through.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger
in good repair by adopting a regular main-
tenance program. After six months to one
year, depending on use, return thetool,
battery pack and charger to
A MILWAUKEE
service facility for:
• Lubrication
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears,
spindles, bearings, housing, etc.)
• Electrical inspection (battery pack, charger,
motor)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and
electrical operation
If the tool does not start or operate at full pow-
er with a fully charged battery pack, clean
the contacts on the battery pack. If the tool
still does not work properly, return the tool,
charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE
service facility for repairs.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from charger and tool
vents. Keep tool handles clean, dry and free
of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a
damp cloth to clean the tool, battery pack
and charger since certain cleaning agents
and solvents are harmful to plastics and other
insulated parts. Some of these include gaso-
line, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner,
chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and
household detergents containing ammonia.
Never use fl ammable or combustible solvents
around tools.

For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and
charger to the nearest service center listed on
the back cover of this operator's manual.
