slide the release lever up. Insert the blade into the
clamp until the tang butts against the collar.
2. Release the lever and the spring loaded mecha-
nism will clamp the blade firmly in place.
3. Tug on blade to make sure it is securely locked in
place.
4. To remove a blade, slide the release lever up
and pull the blade from the tool. Be careful when
handling hot blades.
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 your fingers are 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

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 requiring low
blade clearance.
1. To adjust the shoe, rotate the
shoe release lever toward
the front of the tool and
slide the shoe forward or
backward to the desired
position.
2. To lock the shoe in position,
push the shoe release lever up.
3. After adjusting the shoe, slowly pull the trigger to be
sure the blade always extends beyond the shoe and
your workpiece throughout the stroke.

compliant dust extraction solution.
Always remove battery pack before changing
or removing accessories. Only use accessories
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 firmly and pull
the trigger.
NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is
pulled.
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. Make sure the
blade comes to a complete stop before removing
the blade from a partial cut or laying the tool down.
Electric Brake
The electric brake engages when the trigger is re-
leased, 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 authorized MILWAUKEE
service facility. You must always wait for the blade
to stop completely before removing the saw from
the workpiece.
