WARNING
To prevent the risk of serious personal injury:
• When making an incomplete cut or cutting is interrupted, or blade is binding or tool is stalling; release the
power switch immediately and hold the tool motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete
stop.
• To avoid kickback, never attempt to remove the tool from the work or pull the tool backward while the blade is
in motion. Make sure the blade has come to a complete stop, then remove tool from cut.
• To resume cutting, start tool, allow the blade to reach full speed, reenter the cut slowly and resume cutting.
1. Place the wider part of the shoe on the part of the work piece which is solidly supported (See Fig.
17), never on the section that will fall off when the cut is made. (See Fig. 18)
Hold the tool firmly to prevent loss of control. Working carelessly can cause severe personal injury.

2. Make sure the blade stops.
Even though your tool has a brake, before setting the tool down, make sure the blade has come to
a complete stop and the lower guard has closed.
3. Do not use if anything seem unusual. Remove battery pack immediately.
If the tool body becomes very hot, or does not work properly, remove the battery pack and do not
use. Have it checked by an authorized service center.
WARNING
To prevent the risk of serious personal injury or fire, do not try to repair the tool by yourself. Never
disassemble or modify the tool body. There are no user-repairable parts inside.
4. NEVER ALLOW THE TOOL TO COME IN CONTACT WITH YOUR BODY.
After completing a cut, do not allow the tool to brush against your leg or side.
Since the lower guard is retractable, it could catch on your clothing and expose the blade. Keep
clothing away from tool. Be aware of the exposed blade sections that exist in both the upper and
lower guard areas.
WARNING
Because cutting metal creates sparks;
• Always use safety goggles.
• Do not use tool near any flammable substance or in an area where flammable substances are
used. Fire and burn injury could result.
5. Never engage the spindle lock while blade is running, or engage in an effort to stop the tool. Never
turn the switch on when the spindle lock is engaged. Serious damage to your tool will result.
