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 diff erent
applications, with diff erent accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration and noise emission may diff er. This may signifi cantly 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 signifi cantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the eff ects 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, instructions,
illustrations and specifi cations 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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
High pressure can cause some tool parts or hose assembly to
rupture, posing a risk of injection injury and/or amputation. Inspect
tool and hose assembly for damage or wear before each use. Do
not use if damaged or worn.
Hold Hose Assembly by spring strain relief to avoid kinking the
hose.
Grease and lubricants may be fl ammable. Do not expose to fl ame
or heat source. Follow all warnings and instructions from grease
and lubricant manufacturer.
To avoid damage to the grease gun and pump, the loader ftting
must be compatible with the coupler and rated for at least 690 bar.
Always wear goggles when using the machine. It is recommended
to wear gloves, sturdy non slipping shoes and apron.
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 M18 chargers for charging System M18 battery
packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
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 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 uids, such as seawater, certain industrial
chemicals, and bleach or bleach containing products, etc., can
cause a short circuit.

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 used.
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 LI-ION BATTERY
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.
PRIMING THE GREASE GUN
Hold the hose assembly by the spring strain relief and point away
from your body.
Pull the trigger for 3 seconds, release, and repeat until grease
begins to fl ow from the fi tting.
If after several attempts grease does not appear, manually prime
the grease gun:
Pull back the rod and turn the rod handle to lock into the plunger.
Press in the bleed valve while manually pressing in the rod.
Once grease begins to fl ow from the fi tting, rotate the rod handle to
release the plunger. Press the rod completely into the cylinder.
NOTE: This tool has been tested to factory standards, which
results in a small amount of grease being left in the pump body,
hose and coupler assembly. It is recommended that you purge this
tool with the brand of grease you will be using before actual use.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Unable to pull back rod:
Press the bleeder to release pressure.
Unable to push rod forward:
Rotate rod 90° to disengage it from plunger.
No grease when trigger is pulled:
Cylinder is empty, add grease.
Air pockets in the cylinder, prime the grease gun.
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.
