WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifications provided
with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fire 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.
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 offimmediately 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 floor, 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 first 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
offer 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 C12 chargers for charging System C12 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 offimmediately 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 fire, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never
immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or
conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing
products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized 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 and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise
emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched offor when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may significantly reduce the
exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organization of work patterns.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
This sabre saw cuts wood, plastic, and metal. It can cut straight lines, curves, and internal cut-outs. It
cuts pipes and can cut flush to a surface.
Do not use this product in any other way as stated for normal use.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
The electric brake engages when the trigger is released, causing the blade to stop and allowing you to
proceed with your work. Generally, the saw blade stops within two seconds. However, there may be a
delay between the time you release the trigger and when the brake engages. Occasionally the brake
may miss completely. If the brake misses frequently, the saw needs servicing by an authorized
Milwaukee service facility.
You must always wait for the blade to stop completely before removing the saw from the workpiece.
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, after use, the battery packs have to be fully charged.
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
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situations that cause high current draw, the
tool will stop for about 2 seconds and then the tool will turn OFF.
To reset, release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperatur of the battery could become to high. If this
happens, the battery will shut down.
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.
