Causes and Operator Prevention of KICK-
BACK:
KICKBACK is a sudden reaction to a pinched, 
bound or misaligned saw blade, causing an un-
controlled saw to lift up and out of the workpiece 
toward the operator.
When the blade is pinched or bound tightly by the 
kerf, or cutting slot, closing down, the blade stalls 
and the motor reaction drives the unit rapidly back 
toward the operator.
If the blade becomes twisted or misaligned in 
the cut, the teeth at the back edge of the blade 
can dig into the top surface of the wood causing 
the blade to climb out of the kerf and jump back 
toward operator.
KICKBACK is the result of tool misuse and/or 
incorrect operating procedures or conditions and 
can be avoided by taking proper precautions as 
given below:
• Maintain  a  fi rm grip with both hands on the 

saw and position your body and arm to allow 
you to resist KICKBACK forces. KICKBACK 
forces can be controlled by the operator, if proper 
precautions are taken.

a cut for any reason, release the trigger and 
hold the saw motionless in the material until 
the blade comes to a complete stop. Never 
attempt to remove the saw from the work or 
pull the saw backward while the blade is in 
motion or KICKBACK may occur. Investigate 
and take corrective actions to eliminate the cause 
of blade binding.

center the saw blade in the kerf, or cut, and 
check that saw teeth are not engaged into the 
material. If saw blade is binding, it may walk up 
or KICKBACK from the workpiece as the saw is 
restarted.

blade pinching and KICKBACK. Large panels 
tend to sag under their own weight. Supports must 
be placed under the panel on both sides, near the 
line of cut and near the edge of the panel.

• Do not use dull or damaged blades. Unsharp-

ened or improperly set blades produce narrow 
kerf causing excessive friction, blade binding and 
KICKBACK.

stock. These are most likely to create pinching 
conditions and possible KICKBACK. Do not rip 
warped lumber. Avoid cutting nails.

• Stay  alert. Any distraction can cause twisting 

or binding. Repetitive cuts may lull the user into 
careless movements.

General Operation
Always clamp the workpiece securely on a saw 
horse or bench. See “APPLICATIONS” for the 
correct way to support your work in different situ-
ations. 
1. Draw a cutting line. Place the front of the shoe on 

the edge of the workpiece without making blade 
contact. Hold the handle with one hand and the 
front handle with the other. 

6. If the saw binds and stalls, maintain a fi rm grip 

and release the trigger immediately. Hold the 
saw motionless in the workpiece until the blade 
comes to a complete stop. 

7. After  fi nishing a cut, be sure the lower guard 

closes and the blade comes to a complete stop 
before setting the saw down.

Overload Protection
Overload protection automatically turns off the tool 
when the motor is overloaded. The tool can become 
overloaded when using a dull blade or cutting 
materials too quickly. To prevent overload, always 
use a sharp blade and follow the cutting instructions 
under the "Applications" section.  
If the tool turns off automatically:
1.  Release the trigger.
2. Remove the blade from the workpiece.
3. Allow the tool to run under no load to ensure the 

tool has properly cooled.

4. Resume the cut. When restarting a saw in the 

workpiece, center the saw blade in the kerf, or 
cut, and check that saw teeth are not engaged 
into the material. If saw blade is binding, it may 
walk up or KICKBACK from the workpiece as 
the saw is restarted.

Troubleshooting
If the blade does not follow a straight line:
• Teeth are dull. This is caused by hitting a hard 

object such as a nail or stone, dulling teeth on 
one side. The blade tends to cut to the side with 
the sharpest teeth.

• Shoe is out of line or bent
• Blade is bent
• Blade is loose.
If the blade binds, smokes or turns blue from 
friction:
• Blade is dull
• Blade is on backwards
• Blade is bent
• Blade is dirty
• Workpiece is not properly supported 
• Incorrect blade is being used
• Battery charge is low

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 misses 
frequently, the saw needs servicing by an autho-
rized MILWAUKEE service facility. The brake is not 
a substitute for the guard, and you must always wait 
for the blade to stop completely before removing 
the saw from the workpiece.

2. Line up the sight line with your cutting line. Posi-

tion your arms and body to resist KICKBACK. 

3. To start the saw, push the lock-off button down 

while pulling the trigger. Allow the motor to reach 
full speed before beginning cut.

  Note: LED comes on when the lock-off button is 

pushed down.

4. While cutting, keep the shoe fl at against the 

workpiece and maintain a fi rm grip. Do not force 
the saw through the workpiece. Forcing a saw 
can cause KICKBACK. Use a light, continuous 
pressure to make the cut while following the cut 
line.

5. If making a partial cut, restarting in mid-cut or 

correcting direction, allow the blade to come to 
a complete stop. To resume cutting, center the 
blade in the kerf, back the saw away from cut-
ting edge a few inches, push the lock-off button 
down while pulling the trigger and re-enter the 
cut slowly.

This tool is intended for cutting unhardened ferrous 
metal, non-ferrous metal, plastics, fi ber  cement 
board, and wood. Refer to the “Accessories” sec-
tion for a list of blades to be used for the proper 
applications of this tool. The following precautions 
must be followed to reduce the risk of injury:
• Do not cut stacked materials. Cut one piece at a 

time.

• Do not cut hardened steel.
• Cut materials with the wider edge of the shoe over 

the clamped side of the material.

• Do not touch the saw blade, workpiece, or cutting 

chips with bare hands immediately after cutting; 
they may be hot and could burn skin. 

• Adjust the cutting angle of the blade to the work-

piece, so the blade goes through the thinnest 
sections.

Cutting Angled Materials
When cutting angle materials, tilt the tool back to 
avoid having the lower guard rest on the angle.

Cutting Thin or Corrugated Materials
Cut thin and corrugated materials at least 1" from 
the edge of the workpiece to avoid injury or dam-
age to the tool caused by thin strips of metal being 
pulled into the upper guard.

Cutting Large Sheets
Large sheets sag or bend if they are not correctly 
supported. If you attempt to cut without leveling 
and properly supporting the workpiece, the blade 
will tend to bind, causing KICKBACK.
Support large sheets. Be sure to set the depth of 
the cut so that you only cut through the workpiece, 
not through the supports.
When cutting widths greater than 4", clamp or tack 
1" lumber to workpiece and use the inside edge of 
the shoe as a guide.
