WARNING
Li-Ion batteries in this MILWAUKEE
Li-Ion charger. Other types of batteries may cause
personal injury and damage.
When to Charge the Battery Pack
with this MILWAUKEE Charger
Remove the battery pack from the tool for charg-
ing when convenient. 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
the MILWAUKEE Li-Ion battery pack.
• The only time it is necessary to charge the
MILWAUKEE Li-Ion battery pack is when the battery
pack has reached the end of its charge. To signal
the end of charge, power to the tool will drop quickly,
allowing enough power to finish making a cut, drilling
a hole, or driving a fastener. Charge the battery pack
as needed.
How to Charge the Battery Pack
Align the battery pack with the bay and slide the
battery pack into the charger as far as possible. The
red light will come on, either flashing quickly (bat-
tery pack is too hot or cold), flashing slowly (battery
pack is waiting for another pack to finish charging)
or continuous (pack is charging).
• The 48-59-1809 can charge two batteries at a time,
one on each side of the charger. It will then charge
any other attached batteries in sequence, following
the direction of arrows on the charger.
•If batteries are inserted on a charger that is already
plugged into power, the first battery inserted will
charge first. The direction of arrows on the charger
indicates the next battery to be charged.

•If batteries are inserted on a charger before it is
plugged into power, the direction of arrows on the
charger indicates the order of charge.
• A fully discharged battery pack with an internal tem-
perature in the normal range will charge in about 25
to 130 minutes, depending on the battery pack.
• Heavily cycled batteries may take longer to charge
completely.
• The fuel gauge lights on 18 V battery packs are
displayed as the pack is being charged, indicating
how fully charged the pack is. The fuel gauge will
turn off when charging is complete.
• After charging is complete, the continuous green
light will come on.
• If the light indicator flashes red and green, check
that the battery pack is fully seated into the bay.
Remove the battery pack and reinsert. If the 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 light indicator does not come on, check that
the battery pack is fully seated into the bay. Remove
the battery pack and reinsert. If the light indicator
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 light indicator still does not come on,
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility.
Charging a Hot or Cold Battery Pack
The red flashing indicator light on the charger indi-
cates 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 bat-
teries may take longer to charge.
