Powering the Charger with an Inverter or Generator

The charger will operate with most gen- erators and inverters rated at 300 Watts or higher.

Maintenance and Storage

Store your charger in a cool, dry place.

As a general practice, it is best to unplug battery chargers and remove battery packs when not in use. No battery pack damage will occur, however, if the charger and battery pack are left plugged in.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug the charger and remove the battery pack from the charger before performing any maintenance. Never disassemble the battery pack or charger. Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.

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

Cleaning

Clean out dust and debris from charger vents and electrical contacts by blowing with com- pressed air. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the battery pack and charger, keeping away from all electrical contacts. 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 containing ammonia. Never use flammable or combustible solvents around battery packs, charger, or tools.

Repairs

The MILWAUKEE Li-Ion/NiCd charger has no internal serviceable parts. For cordset repairs, return the charger to the nearest authorized service center.

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 five (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 flashlights), 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 first 1000 charges or two (2) years from the date of purchase/first 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 first 2000 charges or five (5) Years from the date of purchase/first 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 first 1000 Charges/2 years, based on the date of first 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/first 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 sufficient by MILWAUKEE, is requested.
