INSTALLATION

EXTENSION CORDS
Grounded tools require a three wire extension cord. Double insulated tools can use either a two or three wire extension cord. As the distance from the supply outlet increases, you must use a heavier gauge extension cord. Using extension cords with inadequately sized wire causes a serious drop in voltage, resulting in loss of power and possible tool damage. Refer to the table shown to determine the required minimum wire size.
The smaller the gauge number of the wire, the greater the capacity of the cord. For example, a 14 gauge cord can carry a higher current than a 16 gauge cord. When using more than one extension cord to make up the total length, be sure each cord contains at least the minimum wire size required. If you are using one extension cord for more than one tool, add the nameplate amperes and use the sum to determine the required minimum wire size. Guidelines for Using Extension Cords

Do not exceed the load rating of the extension cord. Be mindful of the individual and accumula-tive electrical load for all attachments. Exceeding the load capacity of the extension cord could result in overheating, fire, electrical shock, or injury.
If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure it is marked with the suffix “W” to indicate that it is acceptable for outdoor use.
Be sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified person before using it.
Protect your extension cords from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas.
- Based on limiting the line voltage drop to five volts at 150% of the rated amperes.

GROUNDING

WARNING Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug pro-vided with the tool. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the tool if the cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired by a MILWAUKEE service facility before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Only if permitted and required by local codes, the bonding terminal stud may be wired using 14 AWG Copper insulated solid or stranded wire or wire sized per local codes. Grounded Tools (Three-Prong Plugs) Tools marked “Grounding Required” have a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet (See Figure A). If the tool should electrically mal-function or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the
user, reducing the risk of electric shock. The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the tool. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the tool’s grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically “live” terminal.
Your tool must be plugged into an appro-priate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes
and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in Figure A.

Bonding the Power Supply
The power supply bond terminal is connected to the ground terminals of each receptacle.
Before using the bond terminal, consult a qualified electrician, electrical inspector, or local agency having jurisdiction for local codes or ordinances that apply to the intended use of the power supply. The power supply is isolated from the frame and from the AC receptacle ground pin. Electrical devices that require a grounded receptacle pin connection will not function if the receptacle ground pin is not functional. Only if permitted and required by local codes, the bonding terminal stud may be wired using 14 AWG copper insulated solid or stranded wire or sized per local codes.

ASSEMBLY

WARNING Recharge only with the charger specified for the battery. For specific charging instructions, read the operator’s manual supplied with your charger and battery.

Removing/Inserting the Batteries
To remove the batteries, push in the release but-tons and pull the battery packs away from the power source.
To insert the batteries, slide the pack into the body of the power source. Make sure they latch securely into place.
NOTE: The unit requires four charged battery packs to operate.

Inserting/Removing Extension Cord
The power source must be plugged in to charge the batteries. The power source will charge up to 4 bat-teries that are installed in the charging bays. Plug a suitable extension cord into the power source. The power source must be plugged in to a 120V receptacle to charge batteries. To disconnect the extension cord once charging is complete, remove the cord from the power source.
The power supply either discharges or charges the battery packs one function at a time. Once battery packs are charged, unplug the extension cord and plug in tools or products.
Locking/Unlocking the Battery Packs

Twist the handle collar to unlock the handle prior to pulling apart the battery lock bars attached to the carrying handle.
Twist the handle collar to the lock position. There is a hole in the bar to attach a padlock (not included).
Attach the padlock. Doing so prevents the batteries from being removed from the power source.

NOTE: It is recommended that the battery lock bars be positioned closest together with the handle collar in the lock position when not over battery packs

Installing the Carrying Strap
To install the carrying strap, attach the hooks from the strap on both carrying strap loops. Make sure the hooks are secure on the loops prior to carrying the power source. To remove, reverse the procedure.

Tethering the Power Supply
Tethers can be attached to the power source any- where on the roll cage.

GENERAL OPERATION

Power Supply Capacity
Make sure the power supply can supply enough rated and peak watts for the items being powered at the same time.

Select the items to be powered at the same time.
Total the rated watts of these items. This is the amount of power the power supply must produce to keep the items running. See wattage reference chart.
Estimate how many peak watts will be needed. Peak wattage is the short burst of power needed to start electric motor-driven tools such as a circular saw. Because not all motors start at the same time, total peak watts can be estimated by adding only the item with the highest additional peak watts to the total rated watts from step 2.

NOTE: An alert will sound when the battery packs are low.
When finished, turn off the power supply, disconnect the devices, and remove the battery packs.

Onboard Fuel Gauge LEDs and Alert Tones
When the power source detects a low battery condition, a dead battery, an overload, or overtemp condition, the user will be alerted with an audible
tone(s). Investigate the root cause of the tone(s) to continue use.

Overload and Overtemperature Conditions
When an overload or overtemperature condition occurs, the power source will produce a unique tone and the respective icon will light. Take the appropriate action, such as turning off or reducing the load on the power source, or allowing the power source to rest (cool down) before continuing use.

NOTE: After three consecutive overloads, the power supply will be locked out for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, the power supply can be turned on and used normally.

Cold Weather Operation

MILWAUKEE Lithium-Ion battery packs are designed to operate in temperatures below freezing. When the battery pack is too cold, it may need to warm up before normal use. Insert four batteries on the power supply and use the power supply in a light application (up to 1000W). If the above power recommendation is exceeded, an audible tone will be heard, and 1 LED might flash on the battery fuel gauges. Reset the battery packs by plugging them into a charger (the power supply acts as a charger when plugged into AC power).

CHARGER OPERATION

Charge only MILWAUKEE M18™
Lithium-Ion batteries in this MILWAUKEE Lithium-Ion charger. Other types of batteries may cause personal injury and damage. When to Charge the Battery Pack MILWAUKEE batteries do not develop a “memory” when charged after only a partial discharge. It is not necessary to run down the battery pack before placing it on the charger.

Use the Fuel Gauge to determine when to charge your MILWAUKEE Lithium-Ion battery pack.
You can “Top-Off” your battery packs’ charge before starting a big job or long day of use.
The only time it is necessary to charge the MILWAUKEE Lithium-Ion battery pack is when the battery pack has reached the end of its charge. To signal the end of charge, the power supply will beep and flash the fuel gauge. Charge the battery pack as needed.

How to Charge the Battery Pack

Connect 120V power cord to AC input.
NOTE: When an extension cord is connected to the AC input, power supply will enter charging mode.
Insert one or more battery packs in available battery pack slots. Make sure it latches securely into place. The fuel gauge on each battery pack indicates how fully charged the pack is. The fuel gauge will turn off when charging is complete. NOTE: Battery packs will charge simultaneously. Once inserted, the LED for the corresponding charging indicator will light. Battery packs will charge simultaneously. The LEDs will indicate the following:
NOTE: When in charging mode, the power supply cannot use AC outlets or USB ports.
After charging is complete, the charge indicator light will be illuminated green. The power supply will keep the battery pack fully charged if it is left on the charger. The charge indicator light will be same as normal charging.
- If the charge indicator light flashes red and green, check that the battery pack is fully seated into the bay. Remove the battery pack and reinsert. If the charge indicator light continues to flash red and green, remove pack(s) and unplug charger for at least 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, plug charger back in and insert pack. If the problem persists, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility.
- If the charge indicator light does not come on, check that the battery pack is fully seated into the bay. Remove the battery pack and reinsert. If the charge indicator light still does not come on, remove pack(s) and unplug charger for at least 2 minutes. After 2 minutes, plug charger back in and insert pack. If after these attempts the charge indicator light still does not come on, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility. Dead

Battery Notification
Alarm will sound when a battery’s charge becomes low. An additional alarm will sound when the unit is dead and powers off.
Charging a Hot or Cold Battery Pack The Red Flashing charge indicator light on the charger indicates that the battery pack temperature is outside the charging range. Once the battery pack is within the acceptable range, normal charging will take place and the red light will be continuous. Hot or cold batteries may take longer to charge.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug the power supply and re- move the battery packs from the chargers before performing any maintenance.
