WARNING!
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in BS 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 diﬀerent applications, with diﬀerent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diﬀer. This may signiﬁcantly 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 signiﬁcantly 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.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

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

MULTITOOL SAFETY WARNINGS

Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory contacting a „live“ wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool „live“ and could give the operator an electric shock.

Use clamps or another practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform.
Holding the workpiece by hand or against your body leaves it unstable and may lead to loss of control.
Additional Safety and Working Instructions
Use protective equipment. Always wear safety glasses when working with the machine. The use of protective clothing is recommended, such as dust mask, protective gloves, sturdy non-slip footwear, helmet and ear defenders. The dust produced when using this tool may be harmful to health. Do not inhale the dust. Wear a suitable dust protection mask. 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.

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.

WARNING

Danger of burns!

when changing tools
when setting the device down
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.
When working in walls ceiling, or floor, take care to avoid electric cables and gas or waterpipes.
lamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
Do not use cracked or distorted saw blades.
Plunge cuts without pre-drilling a hole are possible with soft materials (wood, light building materials for walls). Harder materials (metals) must first be drilled with a hole corresponding to the size of the saw blade.
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 offer to retrieve old batteries to protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects (short circuit risk).
No metal parts must be allowed to enter the battery section of thecharger (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 fire, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your device, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., Can cause a short circuit.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

The Maschine can be combined with different tools and is designed for following use:

Sander Head: sanding wood, metal and plastics
Segment saw blade head: for cutting flush to a surface in wood and plastics.
Universal blade head: for working in wood.

Do not use this product in any other way as stated for normal use.

MAINTENANCE

Use only Milwaukee accessories and Milwaukee spare parts. Should components need to be replaced which have not been described, please contact one of our Milwaukee service agents (see our list of guarantee/service addresses). If needed, an exploded view of the tool can be ordered. Please state the Article No. as well as the machine type printed on the labeL and order the drawing at your local service agents or directly at: Techtronic Industries GmbH, Max- Eyth-Straße 10,
71364 Winnenden, Germany.

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, the battery packs have to be fully\ charged, after 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.

BATTERY PACK PROTECTION

The battery pack has overload protection that protects it from being overloaded and helps to ensure long life. Under extreme stress the battery electronics switch off the machine automatically. To restart, switch the machine off and then on again. If the machine does not start up again, the battery pack may have discharged completely. In this case it must be recharged in the battery charger

TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES

Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with local, national and international provisions and regulations.

The user can transport the batteries by road without further requirements.
Commercial transport of Lithium-Ion batteries by third parties is subject to Dangerous Goods regulations. Transport preparation and transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately trained persons and the process has to be accompanied by corresponding experts.

When transporting batteries:

Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and insulated to prevent short circuit.
Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement within packaging.
Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.
Check with forwarding company for further advice.
