RBRC Battery Recycling Seals
The RBRC™ Battery Recycling Seals (see
"Symbology") on your tool battery packs in-
dicate that
MILWAUKEE
has arranged for
the recycling of that battery pack with the
Rechargeable Battery Recycling Corporation
(RBRC). At the end of your battery pack's
useful life, return the battery pack to a
MILWAUKEE
Branch Office/Service Center
or the participating retailer nearest you. For
more information, visit the RBRC web site at
www.rbrc.org.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of explosion,
never burn a battery pack even if
it is damaged, dead or com-
pletely discharged.
MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury,
always unplug the charger and
remove the battery pack from
the charger or tool before
performing any maintenance.
Never disassemble the tool,
battery pack or charger. Contact
a
MILWAUKEE
service facility for
ALL repairs.
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger
in good repair by adopting a regular main-
tenance program. After six months to one
year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a
MILWAUKEE
service facility for:
• Lubrication
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning
(gears, spindles, bearings, housing,
etc.)
• Electrical inspection (battery pack,
charger, motor)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical
and electrical operation
Maintaining Tool
If the tool does not start or operate at full
power with a fully charged battery pack,
clean the contacts on the battery pack. If
the tool still does not work properly, return
the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE
service facility for repairs.
Maintaining Battery Pack
Chicago Pneumatic
battery packs will op-
erate for many years and/or hundreds of
cycles when they are maintained and used
according to these instructions.
A battery pack that is stored for six months
without being used will discharge itself.
Batteries discharge at a rate of about 1%
per day. Charge the battery every six
months even if it is unused to maximize
battery life. Do not tape the trigger in the
“ON” position and leave the tool unattended
as this may discharge the battery to a point
where it will no longer be able to recharge.
Use a
Chicago Pneumatic
battery pack
only until it no longer performs with the
power and torque needed for your appli-
cation.
Store your battery pack in a cool, dry place.
Do not store it where the temperature may
exceed 120°F (50°C) such as a vehicle or
metal building during the summer. High tem-
peratures will overheat the battery pack,
reducing battery life. If it is stored for sev-
eral months, the battery pack will gradu-
ally lose its charge. One to three cycles of
charging and discharging through normal
use will restore the capacity of the battery
pack. During the life of the battery pack the
operating time between charges becomes
shorter. If the operating time becomes ex-
tremely short after a proper charge, the
usable life of the battery pack has been
reached and it should be replaced.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of personal
injury and damage, never im-
merse your tool, battery pack or
charger in liquid or allow a liquid
to flow inside them.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from charger and
tool vents. Keep tool handles clean, dry
and free of oil or grease. Use only mild
soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool,
battery pack and charger since certain
cleaning agents and solvents are harmful
to plastics and other insulated parts. Some
of these include gasoline, turpentine, lac-
quer thinner, paint thinner, clhlorinated clean-
ing solvents, ammonia and household deter-
gents containing ammonia. Never use flam-
mable or combustible solvents around tools.
