Maintaining Tool 

Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good 

repair by adopting a regular maintenance program. 

Inspect your tool for issues such as undue noise, 

misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of 

parts, or any other condition that may affect the tool 

operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger 

to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six 

months to one year, depending on use, return the 

tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE 

service facility for inspection.

If the tool does not start or operate at full power with 

a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts on 

the battery pack. If the tool still does not work prop

erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
