SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS -
THIS MANUAL
CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPER-
ATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MILWAUKEE
LI-ION CHARGER CAT. NO. MXFC AND
MILWAUKEE MX FUEL™ LI-ION BATTERIES.
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 IN-
JURY, CHARGE MILWAUKEE
MX FUEL™ RECHARGEABLE LI-ION BAT-
TERIES ONLY IN MILWAUKEE MX FUEL™
LI-ION CHARGERS.
Other types of batteries may
burst causing personal injury and damage. Do not
wire a battery pack to a power supply plug or car
cigarette lighter. Batteries will be permanently
disabled or damaged.
4. USE MILWAUKEE LI-ION PACKS ONLY ON
COMPATIBLE MILWAUKEE LI-ION TOOLS.
Battery pack and charger are not compatible with
other systems. Use with other tools may result in
a risk of fire, 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 charger in
the presence of explosive atmospheres (gaseous
fumes, dust or flammable materials) because
sparks may be generated when inserting or remov-
ing battery pack, possibly causing fire.
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 flames near a charging battery pack. Vented
gases may explode.
7. MAINTAIN CHARGER CORD.
When unplugging
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 dam
-
age 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 fire 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.
9. CHARGER IS RATED FOR 120 VOLT AC ONLY.
Charger must be plugged into an appropriate
receptacle.
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 fire, 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 cleaning or main-
tenance. Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) to reduce shock hazards.
13. DO NOT BURN OR INCINERATE BATTERY
PACKS.
Battery packs may explode, causing per
-
sonal injury or damage. Toxic fumes and materials
are created when battery packs are burned.
14. DO NOT CRUSH, DROP, OR DAMAGE
battery
pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that
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, fire 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 fluids,
wash with soap and water and rinse with vin-
egar. If eyes are exposed to battery chemicals,
immediately flush with water for 20 minutes and
seek medical attention. Remove and dispose of
contaminated clothing.
17. DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT.
A short circuited
battery pack may cause fire, personal injury, and
product damage. 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.
18. DO NOT ALLOW FLUIDS TO FLOW INTO
BATTERY PACK.
Corrosive or conductive fluids,
such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals,
and bleach or bleach containing products, etc.,
can cause a short circuit.
19. STORE YOUR BATTERY PACK AND CHAR-
GER
in a cool, dry place. Do not store battery
pack where temperatures may exceed 120°F
(50°C) such as in direct sunlight, a vehicle or
metal building during the summer.
20. ALWAYS SHIP LI-ION BATTERIES IN AC-
CORDANCE WITH THE CURRENT REGULA-
TIONS GOVERNING THE CHOSEN MODE
OF TRANSPORT (E.G. GROUND, AIR, SEA).
When in doubt, contact MILWAUKEE, the carrier
or other trained Dangerous Goods professional
to determine applicable regulations.
