Charger
must be plugged into an appropriate recep-
tacle.
10. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ATTACHMENTS.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold
by the battery charger or battery pack manufac-
turer may result in a risk of fi re, electric shock
or personal injury.
11. UNPLUG CHARGER
when not in use. Remove
battery packs from unplugged chargers.
12. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC
SHOCK
, always unplug charger before clean-
ing or maintenance. Do not allow water to fl ow
into AC/DC plug. Use a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock hazards.
13. DO NOT BURN OR INCINERATE BATTERY
PACKS.
Battery packs may explode, causing
personal injury or damage. Toxic fumes and
materials are created when battery packs are
burned.
14. DO NOT CRUSH, DROP, OR DAMAGE
battery

has received a sharp blow, been dropped, run
over, or damaged in any way (e.g., pierced with
a nail, hit with a hammer, stepped on).
15. DO NOT DISASSEMBLE.
Incorrect reassembly
may result in the risk of electric shock, fi re or
exposure to battery chemicals. If it is damaged,
take it to a
MILWAUKEE
service facility.
16. BATTERY CHEMICALS CAUSE SERIOUS
BURNS.
Never allow contact with skin, eyes, or
mouth. If a damaged battery pack leaks battery
chemicals, use rubber or neoprene gloves to
dispose of it. If skin is exposed to battery fl uids,
wash with soap and water and rinse with vin-
egar. If eyes are exposed to battery chemicals,
immediately fl ush with water for 20 minutes and
seek medical attention. Remove and dispose of
contaminated clothing.
17. DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT.
A battery pack will
short circuit if a metal object makes a connection
between the positive and negative contacts on
the battery pack. Do not place a battery pack
near anything that may cause a short circuit,
such as coins, keys or nails in your pocket. A
short circuited battery pack may cause fi re and
personal injury.
18. STORE YOUR BATTERY PACK AND CHAR-
GER

1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THIS OP-
ERATOR’S MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT
SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FOR MILWAUKEE LI-ION BATTERY PACKS
AND THE MILWAUKEE LI-ION CHARGER.
2. BEFORE USING THE BATTERY PACK AND
CHARGER, READ THIS OPERATOR’S MAN-
UAL, YOUR TOOL OPERATOR’S MANUAL,
AND ALL LABELS ON THE BATTERY PACK,
CHARGER AND TOOL.
3. CAUTION - TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY,
CHARGE MILWAUKEE LITHIUM-ION PACKS
ONLY IN THEIR MILWAUKEE LITHIUM-ION
CHARGER.
Other types of chargers may cause
personal injury or damage. Battery pack and
charger are not compatible with
V
™-technology
or NiCd systems. Do not wire a battery pack
to a power supply plug or car cigarette lighter.
Battery packs will be permanently disabled or
damaged.
4. USE MILWAUKEE LITHIUM-ION PACKS ONLY
ON COMPATIBLE MILWAUKEE LITHIUM-ION
TOOLS.
Battery pack and charger are not com-
patible with
V
™-technology or NiCd systems.
Use with other tools may result in a risk of fi re,
electric shock or personal injury.
5. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS.
Do
not charge battery pack in rain, snow, damp or
wet locations.
Do not use battery pack or char-
ger in the presence of explosive atmospheres
(gaseous fumes, dust or fl ammable materials)
because sparks may be generated when insert-
ing or removing battery pack, possibly causing
fi re.
6. CHARGE IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA.
Do not block charger vents. Keep them clear to
allow proper ventilation. Do not allow smoking
or open fl ames near a charging battery pack.
Vented gases may explode.
7. MAINTAIN CHARGER CORD.
When unplug-
ging charger, pull plug rather than cord to
reduce the risk of damage to the electrical
plug and cord. Never carry charger by its cord.
Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp edges.
Make sure cord will not be stepped on, tripped
over or subjected to damage or stress. Do not
use charger with damaged cord or plug. Have
a damaged charger replaced immediately.
8. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS
IT IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY.
Using the
wrong, damaged or improperly wired extension
cord could result in the risk of fi re and electrical
shock. If an extension cord must be used, plug
the charger into a properly wired 16 gauge or
larger extension cord with pins that are the
same number, size and shape as the pins on
the charger. Make sure that the extension cord
is in good electrical condition.
