BATTERY
OPERATION
Fuel Gauge
Compared to NiCd battery pack types, MILWAUKEE
Li-Ion battery packs deliver fade-free power for their
entire run time. The tool will not experience a slow,
gradual loss of power during use.
Use the fuel gauge
to determine the
battery pack's re-
maining run time.
P r e s s t h e f u e l
gauge button to dis-
play the lights. The
10-32
fuel gauge will light
up for 2-3 seconds.
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.
An alternating blinking pattern indicates that an error
or overtemperature state was encountered. Allow
the battery pack to cool and reinsert. If the pattern
continues, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility.
If the fuel gauge doesn't appear to be working,
place the battery pack on the charger and charge
as needed.
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 "re-
cover" 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 product will not run. Allow
the battery to cool down.

Cold Weather Operation
MILWAUKEE Li-Ion battery packs are designed to
operate in temperatures below freezing. When the
battery pack is too cold, it may need to warm up
before normal use. Put the battery on a product and
use the product in a light application.
It may "buzz" for a short time until it warms up. When
the buzzing stops, use the tool normally.
The regulations pertaining to the transport of Li-Ion
batteries are affected by whether the battery is trans-
ported in a personal vehicle or offered for shipment
via a commercial carrier. Always ship Li-Ion batteries
in accordance with the current regulations governing
the chosen mode of transport (e.g. ground, air, sea).
When in doubt, contact MILWAUKEE, the carrier
or other trained Dangerous Goods professional to
determine applicable regulations.
The personal transport of Li-Ion battery packs is al-
lowed when done in accordance with these warnings
and instructions. When shipping Li-Ion batteries with
a commercial carrier, they are shipped under classifi-
cation UN 3480 (battery only) or UN 3481 (batteries
contained in or packed with equipment). The proper
packaging, labeling, marking, and documentation
requirements are generally dependent upon whether
the particular batteries are rated greater than or less
than 100 Wh. Often, Li-Ion batteries rated 100 Wh or
less are "excepted" from certain shipping regulations.
In the U.S., products shipped via ground transport
may be "excepted" from certain hazardous material
shipping regulations if they are under 300Wh.
To reduce the risk of injury or ex-
WARNING
plosion, never burn or incinerate
a battery pack even if it is damaged, dead, or
completely discharged. When burned, toxic
fumes and materials are created.
Disposing of MILWAUKEE Li-Ion
Battery Packs
MILWAUKEE Li-Ion battery packs are more environ-
mentally friendly than some other types of battery
packs (e.g., nickel-cadmium). Always dispose of
battery packs according to federal, state and local
regulations. Contact a local recycling agency for
recycling locations.
Even discharged battery packs contain some energy.
Before disposing, use electrical tape to cover the
terminals to prevent the battery pack from shorting,
which could cause a fire or explosion.
RBRC Battery Recycling Seals
The RBRC™ Battery Recycling Seals (see the
Symbology section) on battery packs indicates that
MILWAUKEE has arranged for recycling with the Re-
chargeable Battery Recycling Corporation (RBRC).
At the end of its useful life, return the battery pack
to a MILWAUKEE Branch Office/Service Center or a
participating retailer. For more information, visit the
RBRC web site at www.rbrc.org.
