2. Open the top extension latch and raise the head out
of the housing. Extend the pole to the desired height.
3. Fully close top extension latch.
4. If more height is needed, fully extend first pole and
close latch before opening bottom latch.
5. Continue to raise the head to the desired height.
6. Fully close bottom extension latch.
7. Rotate the heads to the desired angle. The three
heads can be adjusted individually.
NOTE: Before collapsing the poles, the heads must
be returned to their upright angle.

BATTERY OPERATION

Fuel Gauge
Use the Fuel Gauge to determine the battery pack's
remaining run time. Press the Fuel Gauge button to
display the lights. The Fuel Gauge will light up for
2-3 seconds. When less than 10% of charge is left,
1 light on the fuel gauge will flash slowly.
Approximate Run
Time Remaining
33-54%
10-32%
Less than 10% if bottom light is flashing
NOTE: If the Fuel Gauge doesn't appear to be
working, place the battery pack on the charger and
charge as needed.
Compared to NiCd battery pack types, MILWAUKEE
Lithium-Ion battery packs deliver fade-free power for
their entire run time. The tool will not experience a
slow, gradual loss of power as you work. To signal
the end of discharge, 1 light on the fuel gauge will
flash quickly for 2-3 seconds and the tool will not run.
Charge the battery pack.
NOTE: Immediately after using the battery pack,
the Fuel Gauge may display a lower charge than it
will if checked a few minutes later. The battery cells
"recover" some of their charge after resting.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect itself from damage and extend its life, the
battery pack's intelligent circuit monitors current draw
and temperature. In extremely high torque, binding,
stalling, and short circuit situations, the battery pack
will turn OFF the tool if the current draw becomes
too high. All the fuel gauge lights will flash. Release
the trigger and restart.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-
perature of the battery could become too high. If
this happens, the fuel gauge lights will flash in an
alternating pattern and the tool will not run. Allow the
battery to cool down.
