Extension Cords - Milwaukee 2792-20 Manual Del Operador

eXTension cords

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.
• Unplug all cords during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.

Power
The MILWAUKEE M18 ™ Radio Charger can be
powered by MILWAUKEE M18™ Li-Ion battery
packs or a standard wall outlet. When plugged into a
wall outlet, the battery bay will charge MILWAUKEE
M18™ Li-Ion battery packs (see Charger Operation).

Inserting/Removing Battery Pack
1. Open the battery bay cover.
2. To insert the battery pack, slide it into the
battery bay.
3. To remove the battery pack, pull the battery
pack off of the bay.
4. Always close the battery bay cover when the
bay is not in use.
Low Battery Indicator
When the radio is powered by a battery pack and
its charge falls below 10%, the low battery indicator
is displayed.
Battery Pack Protection
To protect the life of the battery pack, the radio
will shut off when the battery's charge becomes
too low. If this happens, plug radio charger into a
120V outlet and charge the battery pack according
to Charger Operation.
Installing an Auxiliary Device
Open the auxiliary compartment to connect an MP3
player, CD player, or other audio device using the
stereo auxiliary jack. Small devices can be stored
in the compartment during use.
USB Power Outlet
This outlet can be used to charge a cell phone,
power an MP3 player or any other device that uses
less than 2.1A of DC electrical current.
NOTE: Any device that uses more than 2.1 A of DC
electrical current will trip a self-resetting overload
and disable the output.

• Make sure the positive (+) and negative (-)
battery terminals are positioned correctly.
• Do not mix new and old batteries together,
or mix different types of batteries.
• Do not try to recharge non-rechargeable
batteries.
If chemicals from the batteries come in
contact with your skin, wash them off imme-
diately with water. If chemicals leak onto the
radio, clean the radio completely.
To hold station presets and clock time when the
battery pack is removed and the radio is unplugged,
2 AAA batteries are required.
1. Remove battery pack and unplug radio.
2. Remove the screw and battery cover.
3. Insert two (2) AAA batteries according to
matching positive (+) and negative (-) marks.
4. Replace the battery cover and screw.
