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. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF IN-
CAUTION
JURY, CHARGE MILWAUKEE
LI-ION PACKS ONLY IN THEIR MILWAUKEE
LI-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 LI-ION PACKS ONLY ON
COMPATIBLE MILWAUKEE LI-ION TOOLS.
Battery pack and charger are not compatible with
V™-technology or NiCd 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 car-
ry 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 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 48-59-1801 IS RATED FOR 120 VOLT
AC ONLY. CHARGER 2710-20 IS RATED FOR
12 VOLT DC AND 120 VOLT AC. 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 mainte-
nance. Do not allow water to flow 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 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 dis-
pose of it. If skin is exposed to battery fluids, wash
with soap and water and rinse with vinegar. 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 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 fire and personal injury.
18. STORE YOUR BATTERY PACK AND CHARGER
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 build-
ing during the summer.
19. ALWAYS USE A SIDE HANDLE when using a
9.0 Ah or higher capacity battery pack; the output
torque of some tools may increase. If your drill/
driver did not come with a side handle, visit www.
milwaukeetool.com for the appropriate accessory
handle.
