• 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
improperly or at temperatures outside the specified
range may damage the battery and increase the risk
of fire.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualified
repair person using only identical replacement
parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power
tool is maintained.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES FOR
DRAIN SNAKE
• Only grasp the rotating cable with gloves recom-
mended by the manufacturer. Latex or loose fitting
gloves or rags can become wrapped around the cable
and may result in serious personal injury.
• Do not allow the cutter to stop turning while the
cable is turning. This can overstress the cable and
may cause twisting, kinking or breaking of the cable
and may result in serious personal injury.
• Use latex or rubber gloves inside the gloves rec-
ommended by the manufacturer, goggles, face
shields, protective clothing, and respirator when
chemicals, bacteria or other toxic or infectious sub-
stances are suspected to be in a drain line. Drains
may contain chemicals, bacteria and other substances
that may cause burns, be toxic or infectious or may
result in other serious personal injury.
• Practice good hygiene. Do not eat or smoke while
handling or operating the tool. After handling or
operating drain cleaning equipment, use hot, soapy
water to wash hands and other body parts exposed
to drain contents. This will help reduce the risk of health
hazards due to exposure to toxic or infectious material.
• Only use the drain cleaner for the recommended
drain sizes. Using the wrong size drain cleaner can
lead to twisting, kinking or breaking of the cable and
may result in personal injury.
• Inspect cable for wear and damage before use.
Replace a worn or damaged cable before using the
drain cleaner.
• Do not twist, kink or over bend cables. Breaking of
the cable may result in serious personal injury.
• Inspect the drain to be cleaned before use. If pos-
sible, determine the access point(s) to the drain, the
size(s) and length(s) of the drain, distance to mainlines,
the nature of the blockage, presence of drain clean-
ing chemicals or other chemicals, etc. If chemicals
are present in the drain, it is important to understand
the specific safety measures required to work around
those chemicals. Contact the chemical manufacturer
for required information.
• If needed, place protective covers in the work area.
The drain cleaning process can be messy.
• Make sure cable is fully retracted inside of the drain
cleaner. This will prevent whipping at start up.
• Place the drain cleaner at a distance no greater
than six inches from drain opening. If the drain
cleaner cannot be placed within six inches from
the drain opening, the drain opening will need to
be extended using a similar size pipe and fittings.
Greater distances can cause control problems leading
to twisting, kinking, breaking or whipping of the cable.
• One person must control both the trigger switch
and cable. If the tool stops rotating, the user must be
able to turn the tool off to prevent twisting, kinking,
breaking or whipping of the cable.
• Do not operate the drain cleaner in reverse rota-
tion except as described in this manual. Running
the tool in reverse, while in a clog or with cable bound,
can cause damage to the cable and accessories.
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry im-
portant information. If unreadable or missing, contact
a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
• Some dust created by power sanding,
WARNING
sawing, grinding, drilling, and other
construction activities contains chemicals known to
cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other
masonry products, and
• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on
how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated
area, and work with approved safety equipment, such
as those dust masks that are specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
