Extension Cords - Milwaukee M18 0886-20 Manual Del Operador

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
• If you are using an extension cord outdoors, be sure
it is marked with the suffix "W-A" ("W" in Canada)
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.

recommended for this tool. Others
may be hazardous.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect the life of the battery pack, the fan will
shut off when the battery's charge becomes too low.
If this happens, remove the battery pack and charge
it according to the charger's instructions.

Using AC/DC Power Supply
Only use MILWAUKEE 18 volt AC/DC power supply
Cat. No. 23-81-0701. Insert the power supply into
the 18 volt DC jack on the back of the fan. Plug the
power supply into a suitable wall outlet.
WARNING
water, rain or, moisture.
To turn the fan On, rotate the control switch from O
to I. To turn the fan Off, return the control switch to O.
To adjust the speed of the fan, rotate the control
switch between the I, II and III speed postitions.
I - Low
II - Medium
III - High
To adjust the fan angle, grasp fan by the top handle
and tilt fan forwards or backwards. The fan can pivot
forwards to a range of 30°; with detents every 15°.
The fan can pivot backwards to a range of 90°; with
detents every 15°
WARNING
battery pack from the charger or tool before
performing any maintenance. Never disassemble
the tool, battery pack or charger. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.

--
operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for inspection.
If the tool does not start or operate at full power with
a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts on
the battery pack. If the tool still does not work prop-
erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
