Noise information:

Measured values determined according to EN 60745.
Typically, the A-weighted noise levels of the tool are:
Sound pressure level / Uncertainty K : 82,63 dB(A) / 3 dB(A)
Sound power level / Uncertainty K: 93,63 dB(A) / 3 dB(A)

Always wear ear protectors!

Vibration information: Total vibration values (vector sum in the three axes) determined according to EN 60745. Vibration emission value ah / Uncertainty K Sawing of metal: 1,38 m/s2 / 1,50 m/s2

WARNING!
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 60745 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 diff erent applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may signifi cantly 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 off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.

Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.

WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifi cations provided with this power tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

BAND SAW SAFETY WARNINGS

Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
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. Always place the guide shoe on the workpiece when sawing. Do not start the blade when in contact with workpiece. Wait for blade to reach full speed before beginning cut. When blade is binding, or when interrupting a cut for any reason, release the trigger and hold the cutter motionless in the material until the blade comes to a complete stop. Never restart the machine when the blade in contact with workpiece. Do not use cracked or distorted saw blades.

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 off immediately 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. 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 off er 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 M18 chargers for charging System M18 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 off immediately 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 fi re, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fl uid or allow a fl uid to fl ow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fl uids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

The Band Saw cuts lengthways and mitreccurately in different type of metals such as metal profiles (UniStrut), pipes, metal studs, channels, aluminium profiles, metal sheets.
Do not use this product in any other way as stated for normal use.

RESIDUAL RISK

Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to completely eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in use and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:

• Injury caused by vibration Hold the product by designated handles and restrict working time and exposure.
• Exposure to noise can cause hearing injury. Wear ear protection and limit exposure.
• Injury due to flying debris Wear eye protection, heavy long trousers, gloves and substancial footwear at all times.
• Inhalation of toxic dusts.

NOTES FOR LI-ION BATTERIES

Use of Li-Ion batteries

Batteries 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. 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, the batteries have to be fully charged, after used.

To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery pack from the charger once it is fully charged. For battery storage longer than 30 days: Store the battery where the temperature is below 27°C and away from moisture Store the battery in a 30% – 50% charged condition Every six months of storage, charge the battery as normal.

Battery protection for Li-Ion batteries
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situations that cause high current draw, the tool will vibrate for about 5 seconds, the fuel gauge will fl ash ,and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset, release the trigger. Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperature of the battery could become too high. If this happens, the fuel gauge will fl ash and the battery pack cool and then continue work.

Transport of Li-Ion 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.
  When transporting batteries:

• Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and insulated to prevent short circuit.

• Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement within packaging.

• Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.

Check with forwarding company for further advice

CLEANING

The ventilation slots of the machine must be kept clear at all times.
