1. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS - THIS MANUAL
CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY AND OPER-
ATING INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE MILWAUKEE
LI-ION COMBO CHARGERS AND MILWAUKEE
M12™ AND M18™ LI-ION BATTERIES.
2. BEFORE USING THE BATTERY PACK AND
CHARGER, READ THIS OPERATOR'S MAN-
UAL, YOUR TOOL OPERATOR'S MANUAL,
AND ALL LABELS ON THE BATTERY PACK,
CHARGER AND TOOL.
3. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF IN-
CAUTION
JURY, CHARGE MILWAUKEE
M12™ AND M18™ RECHARGEABLE LI-ION
BATTERIES ONLY IN MILWAUKEE M12™ AND
M18™ LI-ION CHARGERS. Other types of batter-
ies may burst causing personal injury and damage.
Do not wire a battery pack to a power supply plug or
car cigarette lighter. Batteries will be permanently
disabled or damaged.
4. USE MILWAUKEE LI-ION PACKS ONLY ON COM-
PATIBLE MILWAUKEE LI-ION TOOLS. Battery pack
and charger are not compatible with V™-technology
or NiCd systems. Use with other tools may result in
a risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury.
5. AVOID DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENTS. Do not
charge battery pack in rain, snow, damp or wet
locations. Do not use battery pack or charger in the
presence of explosive atmospheres (gaseous fumes,
dust or flammable materials) because sparks may be
generated when inserting or removing battery pack,
possibly causing fire.
6. CHARGE IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA. Do not
block charger vents. Keep them clear to allow proper
ventilation. Do not allow smoking or open flames near
a charging battery pack. Vented gases may explode.
7. ALWAYS PLACE THE DC CHARGER ON A LEVEL,
WELL VENTILATED SURFACE (e.g. not on a car
seat). If charging while the vehicle is in motion, the
driver should not attempt to install or remove any
battery until the vehicle has come to a stop and it
is safe to do so. Ensure the DC charger and battery
packs are secured when the vehicle is in motion.
8. MAINTAIN CHARGER CORD. When unplugging
charger, pull plug rather than cord to reduce the risk
of damage to the electrical plug and cord. Never
carry charger by its cord. Keep cord from heat, oil
and sharp edges. Make sure cord will not be stepped
on, tripped over or subjected to damage or stress.
Do not use charger with damaged cord or plug.
Have a damaged charger replaced immediately.
9. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD UNLESS IT
IS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY. Using the wrong,
damaged or improperly wired extension cord could
result in the risk of fire and electrical shock. If an
extension cord must be used, plug the charger into
a properly wired 16 gauge or larger extension cord
with pins that are the same number, size and shape
as the pins on the charger. Make sure that the exten-
sion cord is in good electrical condition.
10. CHARGER 48-59-1810 IS RATED FOR 24 VOLT
DC AND 12 VOLT DC. CHARGER 48-59-1812 IS
RATED FOR 120 VOLT AC ONLY. Charger must
be plugged into an appropriate receptacle.
11. USE ONLY RECOMMENDED ATTACHMENTS. Use
of an attachment not recommended or sold by the
battery charger or battery pack manufacturer may re-
sult in a risk of fire, electric shock or personal injury.
12. UNPLUG CHARGER when not in use. Remove
battery packs from unplugged chargers.
13. TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK,
always unplug charger before cleaning or mainte-
nance. Do not allow water to flow into AC/DC plug.
Use a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) to
reduce shock hazards.
14. DO NOT BURN OR INCINERATE BATTERY
PACKS. Battery packs may explode, causing per-
sonal injury or damage. Toxic fumes and materials
are created when battery packs are burned.
15. DO NOT CRUSH, DROP, OR DAMAGE battery
pack. Do not use a battery pack or charger that has
received a sharp blow, been dropped, run over, or
damaged in any way (e.g., pierced with a nail, hit
with a hammer, stepped on).
16. DO NOT DISASSEMBLE. Incorrect reassembly
may result in the risk of electric shock, fire or expo-
sure to battery chemicals. If it is damaged, take it
to a MILWAUKEE service facility.
17. BATTERY CHEMICALS CAUSE SERIOUS
BURNS. Never allow contact with skin, eyes, or
mouth. If a damaged battery pack leaks battery
chemicals, use rubber or neoprene gloves to dispose
of it. If skin is exposed to battery fluids, wash with
soap and water and rinse with vinegar. If eyes are
exposed to battery chemicals, immediately flush
with water for 20 minutes and seek medical atten-
tion. Remove and dispose of contaminated clothing.
18. DO NOT SHORT CIRCUIT. A battery pack will short
circuit if a metal object makes a connection between
the positive and negative contacts on the battery
pack. Do not place a battery pack near anything
that may cause a short circuit, such as coins, keys
or nails in your pocket. Do not allow fluids to flow into
battery pack. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as
seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach
or bleach containing products, etc., can cause a
short circuit. A short circuited battery pack may
cause fire, personal injury, and product damage.
19. STORE YOUR BATTERY PACK AND CHARGER
in a cool, dry place. Do not store battery pack where
temperatures may exceed 120°F (50°C) such as in
direct sunlight, a vehicle or metal building during the
summer.
20. ALWAYS USE A SIDE HANDLE when using a 9.0
Ah or higher capacity battery pack; the output torque
of some tools may increase. If your drill/driver did
not come with a side handle, visit www. milwauke-
etool.com for the appropriate accessory handle.
21. RISK OF FIRE. DO NOT RE-
