WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
Adapt the feed speed to avoid overheating the blade tips.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
This electronic circular saw can cut lengthways and mitre accurately
in wood.
ELECTRIC BRAKE
The electric brake engages when the trigger is released, causing
the blade to stop and allowing you to proceed with your work.
Generally, the saw blade stops within two seconds. However, there
may be a delay between the time you release the trigger and when
the brake engages. Occasionally the brake may miss completely.
If the brake misses frequently, the saw needs servicing by an autho-
rized Milwaukee service facility. You must always wait for the blade
to stop completely before removing the saw from the workpiece.
BATTERIES
Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be
recharged before use.
GB
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 char-
ged, after use. Battery packs which have not been used for some
time should be recharged before use.
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.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or
by burning them. Milwaukee Distributors offer to retrieve old
batteries to protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short
circuit risk).
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.
No metal parts must be allowed to enter the battery section of the
charger (short circuit risk).
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit
situations that cause high current draw, the tool will stop for about
2 seconds and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset, release the
trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperature of the
battery pack could raise too much. If this happens, the fuel gauge
will flash until the battery pack cooled down. After the lights go off,
the work may continue.
Place the battery on the charger to charge and reset it.
