ADDITIONAL SAFETY WARNINGS

Secure material before cutting. Never hold it in your hand or across legs. Small or thin material
may flex or vibrate with the blade, causing loss of control.
Do not drill, fasten or break into existing walls or other blind areas where electrical wiring
may exist. If this situation is unavoidable, disconnect all fuses or circuit breakers feeding this
worksite.
Never leave the trigger locked "ON". Before plugging the tool in, check that the trigger lock is
"OFF". Accidental start-ups could cause injury.
Be aware of the location and setting of the switch "Lock-ON" button. If the switch is locked
"ON" during the use, be ready for emergency situations to switch it "OFF", by first pulling the
trigger then immediately releasing it without pressing the "Lock-ON" button.
Keep hands away from cutting area. Do not reach under the material being cut. The proximity
of the blade to your hand is hidden from your sight.
Do not use dull or damaged blades. Bent blade can break easily or cause kickback.
Before starting to cut, turn tool "ON" and allow the blade to come to full speed. Tool can
chatter or vibrate if blade speed is too slow at beginning of cut and possibly kickback.
Always wear safety goggles or eye protection when using this tool. Use a dust mask or
respirator for applications which generate dust.
Make certain all adjusting screws and the blade holder are tight before making a cut. Loose
adjusting screws and holders can cause the tool or blade to slip and loss of control may result.
When removing the blade from the tool avoid contact with skin and use proper protective
gloves when grasping the blade or accessory. Accessories may be hot after prolonged use.
GFCI and personal protection devices like electrician's rubber gloves and footwear will further
enhance your personal safety.
Do not use AC only rated tools with a DC power supply. While the tool may appear to work,
the electrical components of the AC rated tool are likely to fail and create a hazard to the
operator.
Keep handles dry, clean and free from oil and grease. Slippery hands cannot safely control
the power tool.
Develop a periodic maintenance schedule for your tool. When cleaning a tool be careful not to
disassemble any portion of the tool since internal wires may be misplaced or pinched or safety
guard return springs may be improperly mounted. Certain cleaning agents such as gasoline,
carbon tetrachloride, ammonia, etc. may damage plastic parts.
Risk of injury to user. The power cord must only be serviced by a SKIL Factory Service Center
or Authorized SKIL Service Station.
