5. WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities 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 other 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 specially designed
to fi lter out microscopic particles.

TOOL ASSEMBLY
Removing Battery Pack from Tool
To remove the battery pack, press in both
battery latches and slide the battery pack
off of the tool.
Inserting Battery Pack into Tool
The battery pack may feel warm after the
charging cycle. If it is warm, maximize the
output of the battery by allowing it to cool
for a few minutes before inserting it into
the tool.
Insert the battery pack by sliding battery
pack onto the body of the tool. Insert the bat-
tery pack until the battery latches lock.
Selecting a Blade
The Quik-Lok ® Blade Clamp can be used
with all 1/2" shank universal Sawzall ® blades.
Use MILWAUKEE High Performance Super
Sawzall
® blades for best performance. When
selecting a blade, choose the right type and
length.
Many types of blades are available for a
variety of applications: cutting metal, wood,
nail-embedded wood, scroll cutting, rough-
ing-in, and contours.
Many lengths are also available. Choose a
length long enough to extend beyond the
shoe and your work throughout the stroke.
Do not use blades less than 3-1/2" long
since they won't extend beyond the shoe
throughout the stroke.
For best performance and longest life, see
“Accessories” to select the best blade for
the job.
Installing and Removing Blades
Quik-Lok
® Blade Clamp
Remove battery pack before changing
blades. Make sure the spindle and blade
clamp areas are clean. Metal chips and
sawdust may prevent the Quik-Lok
® Blade
Clamp from clamping securely.
