WORK AREA SAFETY
Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or
dark areas invite accidents.
Do not use in the presence of explosive dust,
liquids or vapors.
Do not use where oxygen or anesthetics are used.
Do not allow to be used as a toy. Close attention is necessary when used by or near children.
Use extra care when using on stairs.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
Do not pick up wet material. Do not use water to settle dust.
Do not handle battery pack or vacuum with wet
hands.
Store indoors. Do not expose to rain.
PERSONAL SAFETY
STAY ALERT. Watch what you are doing and use common sense. Do not use vacuum when you are
tired, distracted or under the inuence of drugs,
alcohol or medication causing diminished control.
The operation of a vacuum can result in foreign objects being blown into eyes, which can result in eye damage. Always wear safety goggles or glasses with side shields when operating vacuum.
Wear a dust mask or use an OSHA compliant dust extraction solution when working in dusty situations. Dust particles can harm your lungs.
Avoid accidental starting. Ensure the switch is
in the off-position before inserting battery pack.
Inserting battery pack in vacuum that has the switch on invites accidents.
Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal- ance at all times. This enables better control of the vacuum in unexpected situations.
Never stand on vacuum or use as a step stool.
Keep hair, loose clothing, ngers, and all parts
of body away from openings and moving parts.
Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.
USE AND CARE
Do not use without tank and/or lter properly
installed.
Do not use to pick up ammable or combustible liquids such as gasoline or use in areas where they
may be present.
Do not pick up anything that is burning or smok- ing such as cigarettes, matches, or hot ashes.
Do not pick up soot, cement, plaster or drywall
dust without lter in place. These are very ne
particles that may affect the performance of the motor or be exhausted back into the air.
To reduce risk, do not use to vacuum hazard-
ous, toxic or carcinogenic materials, such as
asbestos or pesticide.
Use special care when emptying heavily loaded tanks.
To avoid spontaneous combustion, empty tank
after each use.
Do not leave vacuum unattended when battery pack is installed. Remove battery pack when not in use and before servicing.
Do not put any object into openings. Do not use with any opening blocked; keep free of dust, lint,
hair, and anything else that may reduce air ow.
Static shocks are possible in dry areas or when the relative humidity of the air is low. This is only temporary and does not affect the use of the vacuum. To reduce the frequency of static shocks, add moisture to the air with a console or installed
humidier.
Some wood contains preservatives and can be
toxic. Take extra care to prevent inhalation and skin contact when working with these materials.
Request and follow any safety information available from your material supplier.
Maintain vacuum. Check for misalignment or
binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and
any other condition that may affect the vacuum's operation. If damaged, have the vacuum repaired
before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.
• 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 your capability; contact Milwaukee Tool or a trained professional for additional information or training.
Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
This product is suitable for collection of silica
dust when used in accordance with these in­structions. To reduce the risk of health hazards from other vapors or dust, do not vacuum carcinogenic, toxic or hazardous materials
such as asbestos, arsenic, barium, beryllium, lead, pesticides or other health endangered materials.
WARNING
Some dust created by
power sanding, 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 spe-
cially designed to lter out microscopic particles.
• The unit is compliant as an objective data
solution of OSHA Standard 29CRF 1926.1153, assuming it is used in accordance with MILWAUKEE instructions. Please reference https://www.osha.gov for further details on compli­ance methods. Visit https://www.milwaukeetool.
com for an objective data sheet.
BATTERY PACK USE AND CARE
Use vacuum only with specically designated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and re.
Turn off all controls before removing battery pack.
Before using the battery pack or charger read
the operator’s manuals, and any labels on the battery pack, charger and vacuum.
Recharge only with the charger specied by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of re when used
with another battery pack.
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 re.
Do not use damaged battery pack or vacuum. If battery pack or vacuum are not working as they should, have been dropped, damaged, left outdoors,or dropped into water, return them to a service center.
SERVICE
• Have your power tool serviced by a qualied
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
•Before using the vacuum, read this operator’s
manual, your battery pack and charger opera­tor’s manuals, and all labels on the vacuum, battery pack, and charger.
Never use vacuum without tank and lter properly installed. Vacuum will throw dust and debris into the
air.
Never use water to clean lter. Tap clean or blow dirt off with compressed air. Water will cause lter
to fail.
• Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

SÉCURITÉ
AVERTISSEMENT
LORS
D E L’UTILISATION D’UN ASPIRATEUR ELECTRIQUE ET AFIN DE MINIMISER LE RISQUE D’INCENDIE OU BLESSURES, IL FAUT TOUJOURS PRENDRE DES PRECAUTIONS ELEMENTAIRES, Y COMPRIS CELLES PRESENTEES CI-DESSOUS : LIRE TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D'UTILISER L’ASPIRATEUR. POUR DES APPLICATIONS COMMERCIALES OU RESIDENTIELLES. AVANT D’UTILISER L’ASPIRATEUR, LIRE LE PRÉSENT MANUEL D’UTILISATION, LE MANUEL D’UTILISATION DU BLOC-PILES ET DU CHARGEUR, AINSI QUE TOUTES LES ÉTIQUETTES SE TROUVANT SUR L’ASPIRATEUR, LE BLOC-PILES, ET LE
CHARGEUR.
SÉCURITÉ DU LIEU DE TRAVAIL
• Veillez à ce que l’aire de travail soit propre et
bien éclairée. Le désordre et le manque de lumière
favorisent les accidents.
• Ne pas utiliser en présence de liquides explosifs
ou de poussière ou vapeurs explosives.
• Ne pas utiliser où l'oxygène ou les agents anes-
thésiques sont utilisés.
• Cet appareil n’est pas un jouet. Une surveillance
étroite est impérative lorsqu’il est utilisé par des enfants ou à leur proximité.
• Redoubler de prudence lors de l'utilisation dans
des escaliers.
SÉCURITÉ ÉLECTRIQUE
Ne pas aspirer de matériaux humides. Ne pas
utiliser d’eau pour déposer la poussière.
• Ne pas manipuler le bloc-pile ou l’aspirateur
avec les mains mouillées.
Entreposer à l’intérieur. Ne pas exposer à la
pluie.
SÉCURITÉ INDIVIDUELLE
• RESTER VIGILANT. Se montrer attentif et faire
preuve de bon sens. Ne pas utiliser l’aspirateur en
cas de fatigue, distraction ou sous l’inuence de
