Maintenance - Milwaukee LOK-TOR II Operator's Manual

MAINTENANCE

WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, always
unplug the charger and remove the
battery pack from the charger or
tool before performing any mainte-
nance. Never disassemble the tool,
battery pack or charger. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL
repairs.
Keep your tool, battery pack and char-
ger in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. After six months
to one year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for:
• Lubrication
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning
(gears, spindles, bearings, housing,
etc.)
• Electrical inspection (battery pack,
charger, motor)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and
electrical operation
Maintaining Tool
If the tool does not start or operate at full pow-
er with a fully charged battery pack, clean
the contacts on the battery pack. If the tool
still does not work properly, return the tool,
charger and battery pack, to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for repairs.
Maintaining Battery Pack
MILWAUKEE battery packs will operate for
many years and/or hundreds of cycles when
they are maintained and used according to
these instructions.
A battery pack that is stored for six months
without being used will discharge itself. Bat-
teries discharge at a rate of about 1% per
day. Charge the battery every six months
even if it is unused to maximize battery life.
Do not tape the trigger in the "ON" position
and leave the tool unattended as this may
discharge the battery to a point where it
will no longer be able to recharge. Use a
MILWAUKEE battery pack only until it no
longer performs with the power and torque
needed for your application.
Store your battery pack in a cool, dry place.
Do not store it where the temperature may
exceed 120°F (50°C) such as a vehicle or
metal building during the summer. High
temperatures will overheat the battery pack,
reducing battery life. If it is stored for several
months, the battery pack will gradually lose
its charge. One to three cycles of charging
and discharging through normal use will
restore the capacity of the battery pack. Dur-
ing the life of the battery pack the operating
time between charges becomes shorter. If
the operating time becomes extremely short
after a proper charge, the usable life of the
battery pack has been reached and it should
be replaced.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal injury
and damage, never immerse your
tool, battery pack or charger in liquid
or allow a liquid to fl ow inside them.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from charger and tool
vents. Keep tool handles clean, dry and free
of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a
damp cloth to clean the tool, battery pack
and charger since certain cleaning agents
and solvents are harmful to plastics and other
insulated parts. Some of these include gaso-
line, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner,
chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and
household detergents containing ammonia.
Never use fl ammable or combustible sol-
vents around tools.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of explosion,
never burn a battery pack even if
it is damaged, dead or completely
discharged.
