Sound pressure level (Uncertainty K=3dB(A))| 76 dB (A)
Sound power level (Uncertainty K=3dB(A))| 87 dB (A
Wear ear protectors!
Total vibration values (vector sum in the three axes) determined
according to EN 60745.|
Sawing of wood
Vibration emission value ah| 10,5 m/s2
Uncertainty K=| 1,5 m/s2
WARNING
The vibration 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 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 emission may differ. This may
signifi cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration 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 effects
of vibration such as: maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping the
hands warm, and organization of work patterns.
WARNING! Read all safety warnings and all instructions.
Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock,
fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
SABRE 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.
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 ceilings, 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 fi
rst 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 the battery, acid washes it off
immediately with soap and water. In case of eye contact rinse thoroughly for
at least 10 minutes and immediately seek medical attention.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
This saber 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 than 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 miss 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 lifetime, 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 a 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 temperature of the battery could
become too 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 exclusive 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 circuits.
- Ensure that the battery pack is secured against movement within the packaging.
- Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.
Check with the forwarding company for further advice
