MAINTENANCE
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
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
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 char- ger in good repair by adopting a regular maintenance 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 pow- er 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
MILWAUKEE battery packs will operate 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. Bat- teries 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 MILWAUKEE battery pack only until it no longer performs with the power and torque needed for your application.
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 temperatures will overheat the battery pack, reducing battery life. If it is stored for several months, the battery pack will gradually lose its charge. One to three cycles of charging and discharging through normal use will restore the capacity of the battery pack. Dur- ing the life of the battery pack the operating time between charges becomes shorter. If the operating time becomes extremely short after a proper charge, the usable life of the battery pack has been reached and it should be replaced.
