WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized
test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of
exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for
diff erent applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may
signifi cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched
off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working
period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool
and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns.
WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations and specifi cations provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result
in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
LINE TRIMMER SAFETY WARNINGS
a) Do not use the machine in bad weather conditions,
especially when there is a risk of lightning. This
decreases the risk of being struck by lightning.
b) Thoroughly inspect the area for wildlife where the
machine is to be used. Wildlife may be injured by the
machine during operation.
c) Thoroughly inspect the area where the machine is to
be used and remove all stones, sticks, wires, bones,
and other foreign objects. Thrown objects can cause
personal injury.
d) Before using the machine, always visually inspect to
see that the cutter and the cutter assembly are not
damaged. Damaged parts increase the risk of injury.
e) Keep guards in place. Guards must be in working
order and be properly mounted. A guard that is loose,
damaged, or is not functioning correctly may result in
personal injury.
f) Keep all cooling air inlets clear of debris. Blocked air
inlets and debris may result in overheating or risk of fi re.
g) Wear eye protection and ear protection. Adequate
protective equipment will reduce personal injury.
h) While operating the machine, always wear non-slip
and protective footwear. Do not operate the machine
when barefoot or wearing open sandals. This reduces

the chance of injury to the feet from contact with the
moving cutter.
i) Always wear clothing such as trousers that covers
the operator's legs while operating the machine.
Contact with the moving cutter or line may cause injury.
j) Keep bystanders away while operating the machine.
Thrown debris can result in serious personal injury.
k) Do not operate the machine above waist height. This
helps prevent unintended cutter contact and enables
better control of the machine in unexpected situations.
l) Exercise caution when operating the machine in wet
grass. Walk, never run. This reduces the risk of slipping
and falling which may result in personal injury.
m) Do not operate the machine on excessively steep
slopes. This reduces the risk of loss of control, slipping
and falling which may result in personal injury.
n) When working on slopes, always be sure of your
footing, always work across the face of slopes, never
up or down and exercise extreme caution when
changing direction. This reduces the risk of loss of
control, slipping and falling which may result in personal
injury.
o) Keep all power cords and cables away from cutting
area. Power cords or cables may be hidden in hedges or
bushes and can be accidentally cut or damaged by the
line or cutter.
p) Keep all parts of the body away from the moving
trimmer cutter or line. Do not clear material from the
machine until it has been disconnected from the
power source. The moving trimmer cutter or line may
result in serious personal injury.
q) Carry the machine with the machine switched off and
away from your body. Proper handling of the machine
will reduce the likelihood of accidental contact with a
moving trimmer cutter or line.
r) Only use replacement cutting heads and trimmer
cutters or lines specifi ed by the manufacturer. Do
not replace the trimmer cutters or lines with metal
wires or blades. Incorrect replacement parts may cause
loss of control, breakage and injury.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not operate the tool without the coupler in place. The
coupler must be secured properly when trimming. Operating
the trimmer without the coupler will cause serious injury.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the
machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household
refuse or by burning them. Milwaukee Distributors off er to
retrieve old batteries to protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects
(short circuit risk).
Use only System M18 chargers for charging System M18
battery packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store
only in dry rooms. Keep dry at all times.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under
extreme load or extreme temperatures. In case of contact
with battery acid wash it off immediately with soap and
water. In case of eye contact rinse thoroughly for at least 10
minutes and immediately seek medical attention.
Warning! To reduce the risk of fi re, personal injury, and
product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your
tool, battery pack or charger in fl uid or allow a fl uid to fl ow
inside them. Corrosive or conductive fl uids, such as
seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach
containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

BATTERIES
Battery packs which have not been used for some time
should be recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the
performance of the battery pack. Avoid extended exposure
to heat or sunshine (risk of overheating).
The contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept
clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully
charged, after used.
To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery
pack from the charger once it is fully charged.
For battery pack storage longer than 30 days:
Store the battery pack where the temperature is below 27°C
and away from moisture
Store the battery packs in a 30% - 50% charged condition
Every six months of storage, charge the pack as normal.
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION LI-ION BATTERY
The battery pack has overload protection that protects it
from being overloaded and helps to ensure long life.
Under extreme stress the battery electronics switch off the
machine automatically. To restart, switch the machine off
and then on again. If the machine does not start up again,
the battery pack may have discharged completely. In this
case it must be recharged in the battery charger.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods
Legislation requirements.
