WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and speci

cations

provided with this power tool.

Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in

electric shock,

re and/or serious injury.

Save all warnings and instructions for future

reference.

SABRE SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

Hold the 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 workpiece by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may

lead to loss of control.

Wear ear protectors.

Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND WORKING INSTRUCTIONS

Use protective equipment. Always wear safety glasses when working with the machine. The

use of protective clothing is recommended, such as dust mask, protective gloves, sturdy

non-slip footwear, helmet and ear defenders.
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to health. Do not inhale the dust. Wear

a suitable dust protection mask.
Do not machine any materials that present a danger to health (e.g. asbestos).
Switch the device o

ﬀ

immediately if the insertion tool stalls! Do not switch the device on again

while the insertion tool is stalled, as doing so could trigger a sudden recoil with a high reactive

force. Determine why the insertion tool stalled and rectify this, paying heed to the safety

instructions.
The possible causes may be:

• it is tilted in the workpiece to be machined

• it has pierced through the material to be machined

• the power tool is overloaded
Do not reach into the machine while it is running.
The insertion tool may become hot during use.

WARNING!

Danger of burns

• when changing tools

• when setting the device down
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.

When working in walls ceiling, or

oor, take care to avoid electric cables and gas or waterpipes.

Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury

and damage.
Do not use cracked or distorted saw blades.
Plunge cuts without pre-drilling a hole are possible with soft materials (wood, light building

materials for walls). Harder materials (metals) must

rst be drilled with a hole corresponding

to the size of the saw blade.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or by burning them. Milwaukee

Distributors o

ﬀ

er to retrieve old batteries to protect our environment.

Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short circuit risk).
No metal parts must be allowed to enter the battery section of the charger (short circuit risk).
Use only System M18 chargers for charging System M18 battery packs. Do not use battery

packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store only in dry rooms. Keep dry at all

times.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme load or extreme temperatures. In

case of contact with battery acid wash it o

ﬀ

immediately with soap and water. In case of eye

contact rinse thoroughly for at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical attention.

Warning!

To reduce the risk of

re, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit,

never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in

uid or allow a

uid to

ow inside them.

Corrosive or conductive

uids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or

bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

EC DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY

We declare as the manufacturer under our sole responsibility that the product described under

“Technical Data” ful

lls all the relevant regulations and the directives 2011/65/EU (RoHS),

2014/30/EU, 2006/42/EC, and the following harmonized standards have been used:
EN 62841-1:2015

EN 62841-2-11:2016+A1:2020

EN 55014-1:2017+A11:2020

WARNING

The vibration emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardised test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may

be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for di

ﬀ

erent applications, with di

ﬀ

erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration

emission may di

ﬀ

er. This may signi

cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.

An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration should also take into account the times when the tool is switched o

ﬀ

or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signi

cantly reduce

the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the e

ﬀ

ects of vibration such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organisation of work patterns.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

This sabre cut is intended to cut wood, plastic, and metal. It can cut straight lines, curves, and

internal cut-outs. It cuts pipes and can cut

ush to a surface.

Do not use this product in any other way as stated for normal use.

BATTERIES

Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of the battery pack. Avoid

extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully charged, after used.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack from the charger once it is

fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:

Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C and away from moisture

Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition

Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.

BATTERY PACK PROTECTION LI-ION BATTERY

The battery pack has overload protection that protects it from being overloaded and helps to

ensure long life.

Under extreme stress the battery electronics switch o

ﬀ

the machine automatically. To restart,

switch the machine o

ﬀ

and then on again. If the machine does not start up again, the battery

pack may have discharged completely. In this case it must be recharged in the battery charger.

TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES

Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with local, national and

international provisions and regulations.
• The user can transport the batteries by road without further requirements.

• Commercial transport of Lithium-Ion batteries by third parties is subject to Dangerous Goods

regulations. Transport preparation and transport are exclusively to be carried out by

appropriately trained persons and the process has to be accompanied by corresponding

experts.
