• Do not use for hot tapping. When cutting into an
existing system, the pipe must be drained and de-
pressurized prior to cutting. This reduces the risk of
electrical shock and other serious injury.
• Before using, test the Ground Fault Circuit Inter­
rupter (GFCI) provided with the power cord to in-
sure it is operating properly. GFCI reduces the risk
of electrical shock.
• When working overhead, all personnel should
wear hard hats and be clear of the area below the
tool. This reduces the risk of serious injury should
objects fall.
• Only use Hole Cutting Tools to cut holes in pipe
as directed in this manual. Do not use for other
purposes or modify. Other uses or modifying this
tool for other purposes may increase the risk of seri-
ous injury.
• Read and understand the instructions and warn-
ings for all equipment being used before oper-
ating the Hole Cutting Tool. Failure to follow all
instructions and warnings may result in property
damage or serious personal injury.

WARNING
sawing, grinding, drilling and other construction activi-
ties contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth
defects, or other reproductive harm. Some examples of
these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint
• Crystalline silica from bricks and cement and oth-
er masonry products, and
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated
lumber
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specifically designed to fil-
ter out microscopic particles.
