Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a
regular maintenance program. Before use,
examine the general condition of your tool.
Inspect guards, switches, tool cord set and
extension cord for damage. Check for loose
screws, misalignment, binding of moving
parts, improper mounting, broken parts and
any other condition that may affect its safe
operation. If abnormal noise or vibration oc-
curs, turn the tool off immediately and have
the problem corrected before further use.
Do not use a damaged tool. Tag damaged
tools “DO NOT USE” until repaired (see
“Repairs”).
Under normal conditions, relubrication is not
necessary until the motor brushes need to
be replaced. After six months to one year,
depending on use, return your tool to the
nearest MILWAUKEE service facility for the
following:
• Lubrication
• Brush inspection and replacement
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning
(gears, spindles, bearings, housing,
etc.)
• Electrical inspection (switch, cord,
armature, etc.)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and
electrical operation
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, always un-
plug your tool before performing any
maintenance. Never disassemble the
tool or try to do any rewiring on the
tool's electrical system. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL
repairs.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, electric
shock and damage to the tool, never
immerse your tool in liquid or allow a
liquid to fl ow inside the tool.
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep
the tool handles clean, dry and free of oil
or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp
cloth to clean your tool since certain cleaning
agents and solvents are harmful to plastics
and other insulated parts. Some of these
include: gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner,
paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents con-
taining ammonia. Never use fl ammable or
combustible solvents around tools.
Repairs
If your tool is damaged, return the entire tool
to the nearest service center.

Others may be hazardous.

FIVE YEAR TOOL LIMITED WARRANTY
Every MILWAUKEE electric power tool (including battery charger) is warranted to the original
purchaser only to be free from defects in material and workmanship. Subject to certain excep-
tions, MILWAUKEE will repair or replace any part on a electric power tool which, after examina-
tion, is determined by MILWAUKEE to be defective in material or workmanship for a period of
fi ve (5) years* after the date of purchase. Return the electric power tool and a copy of proof
of purchase to a MILWAUKEE factory Service/Sales Support Branch location or MILWAUKEE
Authorized Service Station, freight prepaid and insured, are requested for this warranty to be
effective. This warranty does not apply to damage that MILWAUKEE determines to be from
repairs made or attempted by anyone other than MILWAUKEE authorized personnel, misuse,
alterations, abuse, normal wear and tear, lack of maintenance, or accidents.
* The warranty period for Hoists (lever, hand chain, & electric chain hoists), Ni-Cd battery
packs, Work Lights (cordless fl ashlights), Job Site Radios, and Trade Titans™ Industrial Work
Carts is one (1) year from the date of purchase.
*There is a separate warranty for Li-Ion Battery Packs that accompany the power tools:
*Every MILWAUKEE Li-Ion Battery Pack is covered by an initial 1000 Charges/2 Years free
replacement warranty. This means that for the earlier of the fi rst 1000 charges or two (2) years
from the date of purchase/fi rst charge, a replacement battery will be provided to the customer
for any defective battery free of charge. Thereafter, customers will also receive an additional
warranty on a pro rata basis up to the earlier of the fi rst 2000 charges or fi ve (5) Years from
the date of purchase/fi rst charge. This means that every customer gets an additional 1000
charges or three (3) years of pro rata warranty on the Li-Ion Battery Pack depending upon
the amount of use. During this additional warranty period, the customer pays for only the
useable service received over and above the fi rst 1000 Charges/2 years, based on the date
of fi rst charge and number of charges found on the battery pack via MILWAUKEE’s Service
Reader. After 1000 charges/2 years from the date of purchase/fi rst charge, the customer will
be charged a prorated amount for the service rendered.
Warranty Registration is not necessary to obtain the applicable warranty on a MILWAUKEE
product. However, proof of purchase in the form of a sales receipt or other information deemed
suffi cient by MILWAUKEE, is requested.
