1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THIS MANUAL
CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MILWAUKEE
LITHIUM-ION CHARGER CAT. NO.
AND MILWAUKEE® M12™ LI-ION BATTERIES.
2. BEFORE USING THE BATTERY PACK AND
CHARGER, READ THIS OPERATOR’S MANUAL, YOUR TOOL OPERA
AND ALL LABELS ON THE BATTERY PACK,
CHARGER AND TOOL.
3. CAUTION! TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY,
CHARGE MILWAUKEE
ABLE LITHIUM-ION BATTERIES ONLY IN
MILWAUKEE® M12™ LITHIUM-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.
MILWAUKEE
4. USE
ON COMPATIBLE MILWAUKEE® LITHIUM-ION
TOOLS. Battery pack and charger are not com-
patible 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 removing 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
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 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.
CHARGER IS RATED FOR 100 - 240 VOLT AC

ONLY. Charger must be plugged into an
appropriate receptacle.

gases
10. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ATTACHMENTS.
Use of an attachment not recommended or sold
®
by the battery charger or battery pack manufacturer 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 maintenance. 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
personal 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
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 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 50°C
(120°F) such as in direct sunlight, a vehicle or
metal building during the summer.
