Making Cuts Less than 1"
When making cuts that are less than 1", the chatter
guard (located inside the blade guard) must be on
the workpiece and not on the cut-off piece. If the
chatter guard is on the cut-off piece, it will jam on the
workpiece and prevent the carriage from continuing
through the cut. If the saw jams, turn the tool OFF
and wait for the blade to stop. Then back the saw
out of the cut.
Lock-Off Feature
Unplug the tool before installing the padlock. There
is a hole in the switch through which a padlock (not
supplied with tool) will fit to lock the tool when it is
not in use. Use a padlock with a 1-1/2" shackle, 5/16"
diameter (such as the Master Lock 1KALJ).
MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug the tool before performing
any maintenance. Never disassemble the tool.
Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL
repairs.
Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. Inspect your tool for issues
such as undue noise, misalignment or binding of
moving parts, breakage of parts, or any other condi-
tion that may affect the tool operation. Return the tool
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool to a MILWAUKEE service facility for inspection.
To reduce the risk of personal in-
WARNING
jury, electric shock and damage,
never immerse your tool in liquid or allow a liquid
to flow inside it.
Lubricating Guide Tubes
The saw carriage should raise itself from the bot-
tom to the top of the guide tubes. However, if the
tubes become caked with dust or debris, the saw
carriage may get stuck or it may not slide smoothly.
Periodically clean the guide tubes with a damp cloth,
following the directions under "Cleaning". Then, use
a dry lubricant such as PTFE or spray silicone. Other
lubricants will cause dust and debris to collect on the
tubes, contaminating the bearings.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep handles
clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild
soap and a damp cloth to clean, since certain clean-
ing agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and
other insulated parts. Some of these include gasoline,
turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated
cleaning solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or
combustible solvents around tools.
For repairs, return the tool to the nearest service
center.
