MAINTENANCE
WARNING
To reduce the risk of per-
sonal injury and damage, never immerse
your tool in liquid or allow a liquid to fl ow
inside them.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury,
always remove the batteries from the tool
before performing any maintenance. Never
disassemble the tool. Contact a MILWAUKEE
service facility for ALL repairs.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from the tool. Keep tool
handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Dirt
or moisture in the terminals can affect readings.
Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the
tool since certain cleaning agents and solvents
are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts.
Some of these include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer
thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents containing
ammonia. Never use fl ammable or combustible
solvents around tools.
Repairs
For repairs, return the tool to the nearest service
center listed on the back cover of this operator's
manual.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. After one year, it is recom-
mended to return the tool to
a MILWAUKEE
service
facility for calibration.
If the tool does not start or operate at full power
with new batteries, clean the contact in the bat-
tery compartment. If the tool still does not work
properly, return the tool to a
MILWAUKEE
service
facility for repair.
ACCESSORIES
For a complete listing of accessories refer to your
MILWAUKEE
Electric Tool catalog or go online
to www.milwaukeetool.com. To obtain a catalog,
contact your local distributor or a service center
listed on the back cover of this operator’s manual.
WARNING
Always remove accessories
before changing or removing batteries. Only
use accessories specifi cally recommended
for this tool. Others may be hazardous.
To determine the failure in the lighting fi xture, per-
form the following tests, in order, until the failure
is identifi ed.
LAMP Test
The LAMP Test can be performed while the fl uo-
rescent lamp is in hand or installed in a fi xture.
1. Turn power off to the lighting fi xture.
2. Remove the light fi xture cover.
3. Extend the antenna to desired length. Always
retract the antenna when not in use.
Note: Add the lamp adapter to the antenna
end or decrease the antenna length for an
enhanced “fl icker” response.
4. Turn the dial to LAMP.
5. Holding the tool by its insulated gripping sur-
faces, touch the antenna to any part of a lamp.
Do not contact the fi xture's live electrical parts.
6. Hold down the TEST button.
7. Test all lamps in the fi xture.
8. Two possible outcomes:
a. The lamp is not energized by the antenna,
indicating gas has escaped from the lamp.
•
Replace the lamp.
b. The lamp is energized by the antenna
causing it to “fl icker” light every second,
indicating the lamp is fi lled with gas.
•
Continue with the BALLAST Test.
BALLAST Test
The BALLAST Test works for all T8 Electronic
Ballasts. A BALLAST Test cannot be done if the
fi xture is turned off.
1. Turn power on to the lighting fi xture.
2. Extend the antenna to desired length. Always
retract the antenna when not in use.
3. Turn the dial to BALLAST
For Lit T8 Lamps:
4. Holding the tool by its insulated gripping sur-
faces, place the antenna end within 1" of any
part of a lit lamp. Do not contact the fi xture's live
electrical parts.
5. Hold down the TEST button.
6. Two possible outcomes:
a. The tool indicator does not beep or fl ash
red, indicating that the ballast is not working
properly.
•
Replace the ballast. Continue checking
all lamps in the fi xture as multiple ballasts
may be present.
b. The tool indicator beeps and fl ashes red,
indicating the fixture has a functioning
electronic ballast.
•
Continue with next step.
For Unlit T8 Lamps:
7. Holding the tool by its insulated gripping sur-
faces, place the antenna within 1" of
each
end
of the unlit lamp. Do not contact the fi xture's live
electrical parts. It is best to test the ballast from
directly below the lamp you are testing, this will
prevent the antenna from picking up frequencies
from adjacent lamps.
8. Hold down the TEST button.
9. Two possible outcomes:
a. The tool indicator does not beep or fl ash
red, on either end of the lamp when tested,
indicating that the ballast is not working
properly.
•
Replace the ballast. Continue checking
all lamps in the fi xture as multiple ballasts
may be present
b. The tool indicator beeps and fl ashes red
on at least one end of the lamp, indicating
the ballast is working properly.
•
Continue with the PIN test.
For T5/T12 Ballasts:
Some T5/T12 Ballasts have an End-of-Life feature.
The End-of-Life feature will turn off the ballast when
there is any broken connection, like a bad lamp.
To test a T5/T12 Ballast, fi rst use the LAMP Test and
replace all faulty lamps. Cycle the fi xture OFF and
back ON to reset the ballast before continuing with the
BALLAST Test. If the ballast fails the BALLAST Test,
contact a qualifi ed electrician to service the fi xture.
PIN Test
The PIN Test can be used on any dual pin Fluo-
rescent Lamps. Fluorescent Lamps have a fi lament
under the metal cap that is used to excite the gas
it contains and turn it on. If the fi lament is broken,
the lamp will not operate correctly.
1. Turn the power off to the lighting fi xture.
2. Remove lamp from the fi xture.
3. Turn dial to PIN.
4. Plug the lamp pins into the pin slots on the bot-
tom of the tool.
5. Hold down the TEST button.
6. Two possible outcomes:
a. The tool indicator does not beep or fl ash
red, indicating that the fi lament is broken.
•
Replace the lamp.
b. The tool indicator beeps, indicating the
PINS are functional.
•
The PINS are good.
7. Repeat with other end of the lamp.
If the Fluorescent Lighting passes all three tests
but will not light, contact a qualifi ed electrician
to service the fi xture.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of elec-
tric shock, always hold tool by insulated grip-
ping surfaces. Do not touch or hold antenna
during operation. Do not allow antenna to
contact "live" electrical parts.
