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 diÍerent applications, with diÍerent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diÍer. This may signicantly 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 oÍ or when it is running but not actually doing the job. This may signicantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eÍects 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 and all instructions.
Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in electric shock,
re and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR METAL SHEARS
Use machinery, accessories, tools, etc. As set out in these instructions.
Give due consideration to your working conditions and the type of work. Using
machines for other than their intended use may result in dangerous situations.
Always wear goggles when using the machine. It is recommended to wear gloves, sturdy non slipping shoes and apron.
Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
When cutting, hold the tool so that the blades are in rm contact with the material for the fastest cutting. Apply even pressure. Too much pressure will tend to jam the tool or cause a rough cut.
Please note that the machine will automatically accelerate back to its
original operating speed if the load is removed from it. Never lay the power
tool down until the accessory has come to a complete stop. The tool may jam,
leading to you losing control of the machine.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the appliance.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of re, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in Îuid or allow a Îuid to Îow inside them. Corrosive or conductive Îuids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., Can cause a short circuit.
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.
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; 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 oÍer 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 oÍ 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).
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.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
The power tool is intended for cutting sheet metals without loss due to metal chips. It is suitable for curved and straight cuts.
MAINTENANCE
Clean dust and debris from tool. Keep tool handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool since certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Never use Îammable or combustible solvents around tools.
The ventilation slots of the machine must be kept clear at all times.
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:
