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, ﬁ re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.

DRILL SAFETY WARNINGS

Safety instructions for all operations
Hold the power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation where the cutting accessory or fasteners may contact hidden wiring. Cutting accessory or fasteners contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.
Safety instructions when using long drill bits
Never operate at a higher speed than the maximum speed rated of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in personal injury. Always start drilling at low speed and with the bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting in the personal injury. Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.

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 masks, 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.
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
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.

When working in walls ceiling, or ﬂ door, take care to avoid electric cables and gas or water pipes. 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 C18 chargers for charging System C18 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 the battery, acid washes 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 ﬂ uid or allow a ﬂ uid to ﬂ ow inside them. Corrosive or conductive ﬂ aids, such as seawater, certain industrial chemicals, bleach or bleach-containing products, etc., can cause a short circuit.

SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE

BATTERIES

Battery packs that 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 lifetime, 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 a 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 temperature of the battery could become too high. If this happens, the battery will shut down. Place the battery on the charger to charge and reset it.
