General Cutting
For straight or contour cutting from an edge, line
the blade up with your cutting line. Before the blade
contacts the workpiece, grasp the handle fi rmly
and pull the trigger. Then guide the tool along your
cutting line. Always hold the shoe fl at against the
workpiece to avoid excessive vibration.
Cutting Metals
Begin cutting at a slow speed, gradually increas-
ing speed as you cut. When cutting into metals or
hard materials that can not be cut from an edge,
drill a starting hole larger than the widest part of
the blade.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of explo-
sion, electric shock and property damage,
always check the work area for hidden gas
pipes, electrical wires or water pipes when
making blind or plunge cuts.
Plunge Cutting
Your MILWAUKEE Hackzall ® is ideal for plunge cut-
ting directly into surfaces that can not be cut from
an edge, such as walls or fl oors. Do not plunge cut
into metal surfaces (see "Cutting Metals").

1. Insert the blade into
the tool with the teeth
facing down. Hold the
tool as shown, resting
the edge of the shoe on
the workpiece.
2. With the blade just
above the workpiece,
pull the trigger. Using
the edge of the shoe as
a pivot, lower the blade
into the workpiece as
shown.
3. As the blade starts cut-
ting, raise the handle of
the tool slowly until the
shoe rests fi rmly on the
workpiece. Then guide
the tool along your cut-
ting line to acquire the
desired cut.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury,
always unplug the charger and remove the bat-
tery pack from the charger or tool before per-
forming any maintenance. Never disassemble
the tool, battery pack or charger. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.

MILWAUKEE service facility for:
• Lubrication

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 power
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.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of per-
sonal injury and damage, never immerse your
tool, battery pack or charger in liquid or allow
a liquid to fl ow inside them.
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

include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint
thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia
and household detergents containing ammonia.
Never use flammable or combustible solvents
around tools.
