Cutting a Hole for an Electrical Outlet
(Fig. G)
WARNING: Shut off all live electric circuits to any areas
where cut‑outs will bemade.
1. Push any wiring deeply into the outlet box to avoid
damage from the cuttingbit.
2. Before hanging the sheet covering the fixture box, mark
the approximate location of the center of the fixture
box on the wall board. Check the cutting bit depth
against the side of the board to be sure it will cut entirely
through thematerial.
3. Tack the sheet in place with a few fasteners avoiding the
stud holding the fixture box. This allows the wall board to
flex slightly around the protruding fixturebox.
4. Turn the cut‑out tool on. Holding the tool firmly with
both hands, plunge the bit straight into the center of the
fixturebox.
5. Cut to the right until the bit reaches the inside edge of
the fixture box. Pull the bit out just enough it to clear the
edge of the fixture box. Plunge the bit in again, holding
the bit gently against the outside of the fixture box.
6. Follow the outside of the fixture box and complete the
cut counterclockwise, keeping slight pressure against the
fixture box. This will minimize wandering and give you a
clean, precisecut.
7. Remove the waste and dust from the fixture box. Finish
fastening the sheet of wallboard.
• Do not cut material lying on a hard surface. Clearance
behind material to be cut must be allowed for
protrudingbit.
• Disconnect battery from tool before making adjustments,
changing bits, or cleaningtool.
• Do not start the tool with bit engaged in the material.
The bit may grab thematerial.
