MAINTENANCE

RBRC Battery Recycling Seals

FIVE YEAR TOOL

WARNING

To reduce the risk of personal in- jury, 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.

Maintaining Tool

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

•Brush inspection and replacement

•Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears, spindles, bearings, housing, etc.)

•Electrical inspection (battery pack, charger, motor)

•Testing to assure proper mechanical and electrical operation

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 and Storing Battery Pack

V28™ Lithium-Ion battery packs will operate for many years and/or hundreds of charging cycles when they are maintained and used correctly. Refer to your battery pack and charger operator's manual for proper care and use.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of personal in- jury and damage, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in liquid or allow a liquid to flow inside them.

Cleaning

Clean out dust and debris from vents and electrical contacts by blowing with com- pressed air. 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, keeping away from all electri- cal contacts. Certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of these include gaso- line, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or combustible sol- vents around tools.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury or explo- sion, never burn or incinerate a bat- tery pack even if it is damaged, dead or completely discharged. When burned, toxic fumes and materials are created.

Disposing of Lithium-Ion Battery Packs

Lithium-Ion battery packs are more envi- ronmentally friendly than some other types of power tool battery packs (e.g., nickel- cadmium). Always dispose of your battery pack according to federal, state and local regulations. Contact a recycling agency in your area for recycling locations.

Even discharged battery packs contain some energy. Before disposing, use electrical tape to cover the terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting, which could cause a fire or explosion.

The RBRC™ Battery Recycling Seals (see "Symbology") on your tool battery packs indicate that MILWAUKEE has arranged for the recycling of that battery pack with the Rechargeable Battery Recycling Cor- poration (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.

Repairs

For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and charger to the nearest authorized service center.
