LASER SAFETY
WARNING
The device produces visible laser
beams, which are emitted from the
tool.
• This device complies with 21 CFR 1040.10 and
1040.11 except for conformance with IEC 60825-1
Ed. 3., as described in Laser Notice No. 56, dated

directly with optical instruments. Do not point
laser light at others.
Laser light can cause eye
damage.
WORK AREA SAFETY
• Keep work area clean and well lit.
Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmo-
spheres, such as in the presence of flammable
liquids, gases or dust.
Power tools create sparks
which may ignite the dust or fumes.
• Keep children and bystanders away while operat
-
ing a power tool.
Distractions can cause you to lose
control.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Do not allow persons unfamiliar with the tool,
these safety instructions, and the tool's opera-
tor's manual to operate the tool.
This tool can be
dangerous in the hands of untrained users.
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and
balance at all times.
This enables better control
of the tool in unexpected situations.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer.
A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
• Use power tools only with specifically designated
battery packs.
Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another.
Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact ac
-
cidentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid
contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help.
Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation
or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam
-
aged or modified.
Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature.
Exposure to fire or tem
-
perature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not charge
the battery pack or tool outside the temperature
range specified in the instructions.
Charging im-
properly or at temperatures outside the specified range
may damage the battery and increase the risk of fire.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
LASER LEVELS
•
Watch out for erroneous results if the tool is
defective or if it has been dropped, misused or
modified.
•
Do not dispose of tool or batteries together with
household waste material!
Tool and batteries that
have reached the end of their life must be collected
separately and returned to an environmentally
compatible recycling facility.
•
Ensure tool magnets are securely mounted to
a metal surface. Magnet strength may not hold
on thin metal surfaces, causing the tool to fall.
• Always use common sense and be cautious when
using tools.
It is not possible to anticipate every
situation that could result in a dangerous outcome.
Do not use this tool if you do not understand these
operating instructions or you feel the work is beyond

professional for additional information or training.
•
Maintain labels and nameplates.
These carry
important information. If unreadable or missing,
contact MILWAUKEE for a free replacement.
•
The device conforms to the most stringent
requirements of the relevant Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) Standards and Regulations.
Yet, the possibility of causing interference in other
devices cannot be totally excluded.
•
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or
performance of procedures other
than those specified herein may result in hazard
-
ous radiation exposure.
•
Be sure to power off instrument after use.
When
instrument will not be used for a long period, place
it in storage after removing batteries.
