WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury,
always unplug tool before attaching
or removing accessories or making adjust-
ments. Use only specifi cally recommended
accessories. Others may be hazardous.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury,
wear safety goggles or glasses with side
shields.
Impact Protection System
Select models are equipped with a unique patented
gearing system that provides effi cient power trans-
mission and extended life in the most diffi cult cut-
ting applications. This durable system will absorb
impacts, blade lock ups, and motor stalls. These
models can be used for extreme cutting applica-
tions such as large diameter pipe, thick metal,
pallets, and heavy demolition and renovation work
as well as for general purpose cutting.
Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed
To start the tool, grasp the handle fi rmly and pull
the trigger.
To stop the tool, release the trigger. Allow the tool to
come to a complete stop before removing the blade
from a partial cut or laying the tool down.
Trigger Speed Control Switch
®
MILWAUKEE Sawzalls are equipped with a trig-
ger speed control switch. It may be operated at
any speed from zero strokes per minute to full
speed. Always start tool before blade contacts the
workpiece. To vary the speed, simply increase or
decrease the pressure on the trigger. The further
the trigger is pulled, the greater the speed. To stop
the tool, release the trigger and allow the tool to
stop completely before removing from a partial cut
or before laying the tool down.
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. Extend blade life by using a solid blade
cutting lubricant such as MILWAUKEE Band Saw
Blade Lubricant Cat. No. 49-08-4206.
OPERATION
Plunge Cutting
Your MILWAUKEE Sawzall ® is ideal for plunge cut-
ting directly into surfaces that can not be cut from
an edge, such as walls or fl oors. Plunge cutting may
be done two ways depending on how the blade is
inserted. Column A shows how to plunge cut with
the teeth of the blade facing down. Column B shows
how to plunge cut with the teeth of the blade fac-
ing up. Do not plunge cut into metal surfaces (see
"Cutting Metals").
1. Insert the blade into the tool.
If you inserted the blade with the teeth facing
downward, hold the tool as shown in Column A,
resting the edge of the shoe on the workpiece.
If you inserted the blade with the teeth facing
upward, hold the tool as shown in Column B,
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 cutting, raise the handle of
the tool slowly until the shoe rests fi rmly on the
workpiece. Then guide the tool along your cutting
line to acquire the desired cut.
NOTE: To make plunge cutting easier, use a
heavy gauge blade and install the blade with the
teeth facing upward as shown in Column B.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of explo-
sion, electric shock and property dam-
age, always check the work area for hidden
gas pipes, electrical wires or water pipes
when making blind or plunge cuts.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
always unplug your tool before perform-
ing any maintenance. Never disassemble the
tool or try to do any rewiring on the tool's
electrical system. Contact a MILWAUKEE
service facility for ALL repairs.
Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. Before use, examine the
general condition of your tool. Inspect guards,
switches, tool cord set and extension cord for
damage. Check for loose screws, misalignment,
binding of moving parts, improper mounting, bro-
ken parts and any other condition that may affect
its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration
occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have the
problem corrected before further use. Do not use a
damaged tool. Tag damaged tools "DO NOT USE"
until repaired (see "Repairs").
Under normal conditions, relubrication is not neces-
sary until the motor brushes need to be replaced.
After six months to one year, depending on use,
return your tool to the nearest MILWAUKEE service
facility for the following:
• Lubrication
• Brush inspection and replacement
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears,
spindles, bearings, housing, etc.)
• Electrical inspection (switch, cord, armature, etc.)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and electri-
cal operation
WARNING
B
electric shock and damage to the tool, never
immerse your tool in liquid or allow a liquid
to fl ow inside the tool.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep the tool
handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use
only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean your tool
since certain cleaning agents and solvents are
harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some
of these include: gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thin-
ner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents containing
ammonia. Never use fl ammable or combustible
solvents around tools.
Repairs
If your tool is damaged, return the entire tool to the
nearest service center.
To reduce the risk of injury,
