IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This manual contains important safety and operating instructions for battery chargers.
Before using the battery charger, read this manual as well as any labels on the charger,
battery pack and tool.
1. CAUTION! To reduce the risk of injury, charge only MILWAUKEE 12, 14.4 and 18 Volt
battery packs in this charger. Other types of batteries may explode, causing personal
injury or damage.
2. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not use charger 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.
3. 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.
4. 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 cord replaced immediately with identical replacement
parts (see Maintenance).
5. DO NOT USE CHARGER OR BATTERY PACK IF it has received a sharp blow, been
dropped or damaged in any way. Do not disassemble. Incorrect reassembly may
result in the risk of electric shock, fire or exposure to battery fluids. If it is damaged,
take it to a MILWAUKEE service facility.
6. CHARGER IS RATED FOR 120 VOLT AC ONLY. Charger must be plugged into an
appropriate receptacle.
7. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ATTACHMENTS. Use of an attachment not recommended
or sold by the battery charger manufacturer may result in a risk of fire, electric shock
or personal injury.
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. DO NOT BURN, MUTILATE OR DISASSEMBLE BATTERY PACK. The battery pack
can explode in a fire. Mutilation may expose battery fluids, causing burns.
10. BATTERY FLUIDS CAUSE SERIOUS CHEMICAL BURNS. Never allow contact with
skin or eyes. If a damaged battery pack leaks battery fluids, 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. Remove and dispose of contaminated clothing. If eyes are
affected, immediately flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.
11. 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 or
keys in your pocket. A short circuited battery pack may cause fire and personal injury.
12. UNPLUG CHARGER when not in use.
13. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, always unplug charger before clean-
ing or maintenance, turning off controls will not reduce this risk. Use a Ground Fault
Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to reduce shock hazards.
14. 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 a vehicle or
metal building during the summer. Charger will charge the battery when the tempera-
ture is between 41°F (5°C) and 113°F (45°C). When the battery temperature is outside
that range, charging will not occur.
