SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
•Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
•Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.
•Hold power tools by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
•Keep hands away from all cutting edges and moving parts.
•Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry
EXTENSION CORDS
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the table shown to determine the required minimum wire size.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16

important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.
•WARNING: Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause can- cer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
•lead from lead-based paint
•crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and
•arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe- cifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.

gauge cord. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum wire size.
Guidelines for Using Extension Cords
•If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix “W-A” (“W” in Cana- da) to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
•Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
•Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.

WARNING Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of elec- tric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a MILWAUKEE service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Grounded Tools: Tools with Three Prong Plugs Tools marked “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet (See Figure A). If the tool should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock.
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool's grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal. Your tool must be
plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in Figure A.
Double Insulated Tools: Tools with Two Prong Plugs
Tools marked “Double Insulated” do not require grounding. They have a special double insulation system which satisfies OSHArequirements and com- plies with the applicable standards of Underwriters Laboratories, Inc., the Canadian
Standard Association and the Na- tional Electrical Code. Double In- sulated tools may be used in either of the 120 volt outlets shown in Figures B and C.
In specific countries, double insulated tools could
be used in the output connections suitable
for the plug.
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug tool before attaching or remov- ing accessories or making adjustments. Use only specifically recommended accessories. Others may be hazardous.
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, wearsafetygogglesorglasseswithsideshields.
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always use a side handle when using this tool. Always brace or hold securely.
Adjusting the Side Handle Position
1.Loosen the side handle by unscrewing the side handle grip until the side handle rotates freely.
2.Rotate the side handle to the desired position.
3.Tighten the side handle grip securely.
WARNING To reduce the risk of injury do not grasp the bit while the chuck is rotat- ing or while the bit is falling from the chuck.
Installing Bits and Chisels
Be sure that the shank of the bit is clean. Dirt par- ticles may cause the bit to line up improperly. Do not use bits larger than the maximum recommended capacity of the drill because gear damage or mo- tor overloading may result. For best performance, be sure that the bit is properly sharpened and the shank is lightly greased before use. Use caution when handling hot bits and chisels.
SDS-Max Drive System
1.Unplug tool.
2.Insert the bit or chisel into the nose of the tool.
3.Push bit into tool until it locks.
4.Check to see that the bit is locked by tugging on it.
5.To remove bits and chisels, pull back on the bit release collar and remove bit.
