Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing
and balance enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.
Use safety equipment. Always wear ANSI-approved eye protection and dust
mask and heavy-duty work gloves. Nonskid or steel-toe safety shoes, hard hat,
or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Always wear ANSI-
approved safety goggles and a dust mask/respirator when using or performing
maintenance on this tool.
TOOL USE AND CARE
Do not force the tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct
tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed. Do not force
the tool and do not use the tool for a purpose for which it is not intended.
Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools
are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain tools with care. Keep blade and striker plate sharp and clean.
Properly maintained tools with a sharp cutting edge are less likely to bind and are
easier to control. Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged tools “Do not use”
until repaired.
Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any
other condition that may affect the tool’s operation. If damaged, have the tool
serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.
When servicing a tool, use only identical replacement parts. Follow instruc-
tions in the “Inspection, Maintenance, And Cleaning” section of this manual.
Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow maintenance instructions may create
a risk of electric shock or injury.

Crystalline silica from bricks and cement or other masonry products
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 spe-
cially designed to filter out microscopic particles. (California Health & Safety Code
§ 25249.5, et seq.)
Never operate Universal Shingle Cutter without guard in place.
The Universal Shingle Cutter is designed to cut relatively soft roofing materials
only, such as fiberglass or asphalt-based shingles. The Universal Shingle Cut-
ter should not be used to cut hardwood, metal, slate or other roofing materials.
UNPACKING
When unpacking, check to make sure that the item is intact and undamaged. If any
parts are missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number shown on the
cover of this manual as soon as possible.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Decide on the length of shingles and desired angle of cut needed for the project.
Adjust the guides on the table to reflect the angle and size of the cut. Tighten the
wing nuts on the guides (underneath the table) to secure guides in place.
Release the Safety Latch and raise the blade, aligning the shingle with the guides on
the Shingle Cutter Table. The gritty top surface of the shingle should be facing up.
Note: For best results, shingle should be warm to achieve the straightest and most even
cut. If necessary, lay shingles in the sun for a short time to warm them up.
Hold shingle by pressing down in the center of the shingle with your left hand. Grip
Blade Handle in right hand and make a brisk and firm downward stroke with it. Keep
inward pressure towards the striker plate. Keep hand and fingers clear of Blade
while cutting the shingle.
Sharpening
The Blade of the Universal Shingle Cutter should be kept clean and sharp.
The blade can be sharpened with a file while still connected to the unit or removed
and sharpened by an angle grinder (see Removing Blade). The blade should be
sharpened at a 15 degree angle for best results.

INSPECTION, MAINTENANCE, AND CLEANING
BEFORE EACH USE, inspect the general condition of the tool. Check for loose
screws, misalignment or binding of moving parts, cracked or broken parts, dam-
aged electrical wiring, and any other condition that may affect its safe operation. If
abnormal noise or vibration occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
Do not use damaged equipment.
Keep blade and and striker plate sharp and clean for better, safer performance.
If blade or striker plate become dull or coated with asphalt or granules from shingles,
clean with file and/or tar remover (not included).
Sharpen Blade when performance decreases. If shingles tear when being cut or
cut edge is ragged, blade should be sharpened.
Periodically clean and lubricate pivot joint.
