IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS
Read all safety warnings and all
WARNING
instructions. Failure to follow the
warnings and instructions may result in electric
shock, fire and/or serious injury. Save all warnings
and instructions for future reference.
WORK AREA SAFETY
• To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is
necessary when an appliance is used near children.
• Store idle light out of reach of children. Warm
lights can become hazardous in the hands of chil-
dren.
• Do not use outdoors.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power cord plugs must match the outlet. Never
modify the plug in any way. Do not use any
adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power
tools. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will
reduce risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded
surfaces, such as pipes, radiators, ranges and
refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric
shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
• Do not expose light to rain or wet conditions.
Water entering a light will increase the risk of electric
shock.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not put light
in water or other liquid. Do not place or store appli-
ance where it can fall or be pulled into a tub or sink.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for
carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool.
Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges
or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not unplug by pulling on the cord. To unplug,
grasp the plug, not the cord.
• Unplug the cord from outlet when not in use and
before servicing or cleaning.
• Always use a suitable extension cord to reduce
the risk of electric shock.
• If operating a light in a damp location is unavoid-
able, use a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
protected supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk
of electric shock.
PERSONAL SAFETY
• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and bal-
ance at all times. This enables better control of the
light in unexpected situations.
• Do not use on a ladder or unstable support.
Stable footing on a solid surface enables better
control of the light in unexpected situations.
• Do no stare at the operating light source.
BATTERY TOOL USE AND CARE
• Recharge only with the charger specified by the
manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type
of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used
with another battery pack.
• Use light only with specifically designated bat-
tery packs. Use of any other battery packs may
create a risk of injury and fire.
• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away
from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins,
keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects,
that can make a connection from one terminal
to another. Shorting the battery terminals together
may cause burns or a fire.
• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected
from the battery; avoid contact. If contact acci-
dentally occurs, flush with water. If liquid con-
tacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid
ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns.
• Do not use a battery pack or tool that is dam-
aged or modified. Damaged or modified batteries
may exhibit unpredictable behavior resulting in fire,
explosion or risk of injury.
• Do not expose a battery pack or tool to fire or
excessive temperature. Exposure to fire or tem-
perature above 265°F (130°C) may cause explosion.
• Follow all charging instructions and do not
charge the battery pack or tool outside the
temperature range specified in the instructions.
Charging improperly or at temperatures outside
the specified range may damage the battery and
increase the risk of fire.
• Have your light serviced by a qualified repair
person using only identical replacement parts.
This will ensure that the safety of the light is main-
tained.
• Never service damaged battery packs. Service
of battery packs should only be performed by the
manufacturer or authorized service providers.
SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES
• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry im-
portant information. If unreadable or missing, contact
a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.

Some dust created by power
WARNING
sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling,
and other construction activities contains
chemicals known to cause cancer, 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 specially designed to
filter out microscopic particles.
