Quik-Lok Blade Clamp Maintenance
®
• Periodically clean dust and debris from the Quik-
Lok Blade Clamp with dry compressed air.
®
• If the collar resists, slide the release lever back and
forth to shake debris loose.
• Periodically lubricate Quik-Lok
a dry lubricant such as graphite.
Removing broken blades from the
Quik-Lok
Broken blades can be removed by the following
methods.
• Remove battery pack before removing blades.
• Point the tool downward, slide up and hold the release
lever, and shake the tool up and down (DO NOT turn
the tool on while holding the blade clamp open). The
shank of the broken blade should drop out of the clamp.
• If shaking the tool doesn't work...
In most cases, a corner of the broken blade will
extend beyond the blade clamp. Slide up and hold
the release lever, and pull the broken blade out of
the clamp by this corner.
• If the broken stub doesn't extend far enough to be
grabbed by its corner, use a thin blade with small
teeth (such as a metal cutting blade) to hook the
blade that is jammed in the clamp while holding up
the release lever, and pull it out.
To reduce the risk of injury, blades
WARNING
must extend beyond the shoe and
workpiece throughout the stroke. Blades may
shatter if they impact the workpiece or shoe.

Adjusting the Pivot Shoe
The shoe can be adjusted
forward or backward to eight
positions to take advantage
of the unused portion of the
blade or for special jobs re-
quiring low blade clearance.
1. To adjust the shoe, press
the shoe release buttons
simultaneously and slide the
shoe forward or backward
to the desired position. Tug
on shoe to make sure it is
securely locked in place.
2. After adjusting the shoe,
slowly pull the trigger to
be sure the blade always
extends beyond the shoe and the workpiece
throughout the stroke.
DO NOT OPERATE SAWZALL
SAW WITHOUT SHOE. STRIKING THE SPINDLE
AGAINST WORKPIECE MAY DAMAGE THE TOOL.

specifically recommended for this tool. Others
may be hazardous.
Trigger Lock
To lock the trigger, push the trigger lock to the right.
The trigger will not work while the switch is in the
locked position. Always lock the trigger and remove
the battery pack before performing maintenance and
changing accessories. Lock the trigger when storing

Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed
1. To start the tool, grasp the handle(s) firmly and
pull the trigger.
NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is
pulled and will go off shortly after the trigger is
released.
2. To vary the speed, increase or decrease the pres-
sure on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled,
the greater the speed.
3. To stop the tool, release the trigger. Ensure the
tool has come to a complete stop before laying
the tool down.
Electric Brake
The electric brake engages when the trigger is
released, causing the blade to stop. Generally, the
saw blade stops within two seconds. However, there
may be a delay between the time the trigger is re-
leased 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. Always wait for the
blade to stop completely before removing the saw
from the workpiece.
