WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 62841 and may be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for diff erent applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may signifi cantly increase the exposure level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the hands warm, organization of work patterns .

WARNING Read all safety warnings, instructions, illustrations and specifi cations provided with this power tool. Failure to follow al l instructions listed below may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

TRIM ROUTER SAFETY WARNINGS

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by your hand or against the body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Only use rotary cutting bits are suitable for the speed of the tool. The rotary cutting bit must be suitable for speed up to 31000 min-1.
Only the collets may be used, which are supplied with the machine.

ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND WORKING INSTRUCTIONS

Use protective equipment. Always wear safety glasses when Always wear goggles when using the machine. It is recommended to wear gloves, sturdy non slipping shoes and apron.
Never reach into the danger area of the plane when it is running.
Always use the protective shields on the machine.
Only use tools whose permitted speed is at least as high as the highest no- load speed of the machine.
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.
Only use professionally grinded router cutters.
Only use router cutter with correct shank diameter.
The workpieces should be clamped down before cutting.
Put the router back to original position after usage (loosen clamping lever to secure cage).
Only move the workpiece in counter rotation to cutter (only work oppositely oriented)! For security, use devices such as safety- and pressure device, guide slide, rip fence, etc.
The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to health (e.g. when working oak or beech wood, stones, paint, which could contain lead or other harmful chemicals). Do not inhale the dust. Use a dust absorption system and wear a suitable dust protection mask. Remove deposited dust thoroughly, e.g. with a vacuum cleaner.
Do not machine any materials that present a danger to health (e.g. asbestos).
Switch the device off immediately if the insertion tool stalls! Do not switch the device on again while the insertion tool is stalled, as doing so could trigger a sudden recoil with a high reactive force. Determine why the insertion tool stalled and rectify this, paying heed to the safety instructions.
The possible causes may be:

• it is tilted in the workpiece to be machined
• it has pierced through the material to be machined
• the power tool is overloaded
• Do not reach into the machine while it is running. The insertion tool may become hot during use.
• when changing tools
• when setting the device down

When working in walls ceiling, or fl oor, take care to avoid electric cables and gas or waterpipes.
Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or by burning them. Milwaukee Distributors off er to retrieve old batteries to protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short circuit risk).
Use only System M18 chargers for charging System M18 battery packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store only in dry rooms. Keep dry at all times.
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.
Warning! To reduce the risk of fi re, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or al-low a fluid to fl ow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., Can cause a short circuit.

BATTERIES

Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be recharged before use.
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, after use, the battery packs have to be fully charged.
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.

BATTERY PACK PROTECTION

In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situations that cause high current draw, the tool will vibrate for about 2 seconds and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset, release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperatur of the battery could become to high. If this happens, the battery will shut down.
Place the battery on the charger to charge and reset it.
