IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
Read all safety warnings and all instructions. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
- Use the station and accessories in accordance with these instructions and in the manner intended, taking into account the working conditions. Use of the station for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.
- Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.
- Fully assemble the station according to the assembly instructions. Do not leave off any pieces.
- Do not modify the station in any way. Use only specifically recommended accessories. Drilling holes or modifying the station will lower the load capacity, which can cause the station to collapse, resulting in injury.
- Lock wheels when station is not being moved. Unlocked wheels can allow the station to move unexpectedly.
- Keep the station on a level surface. Do not load, unload, or park station on an incline. The station may become unbalanced and tip, resulting in injury.
- Always balance the station load to avoid tipping Unbalanced stations are more likely to tip when being moved or when using the station work surfaces. Evenly distribute the weight front to back and side to side. To help prevent the station from tipping, load the product starting with the bottom drawers.
- Do not exceed the maximum product weight, including contents. Do not exceed the maximum weight for each drawer. Overloaded stations can tip, collapse, or damage drawer slides.
- Do not open more than one drawer at a time. Station may tip, causing injury.
- Keep children and bystanders away while loading, unloading, and moving the station. Distractions can cause you to lose control.
- Only lift the station according to the instructions in this manual. Never lift by the side handle. Other methods may be dangerous, resulting in injury.
- Only transport the station when empty. Properly secure when transporting.
- Do not mount the station on a truck bed or any other moving object.
- Lock all drawers before rolling the station. The drawers could come open and make the station unstable and tip.
- Only roll the station short distances by using the handle provided.
- Secure all items before rolling the station. Loose items could shift, causing the station to become unstable.
- Do not use drawers as steps. Do not stand on the station. Station may tip, causing injury.
- Do not step on side shelf. Shelf may collapse or break. Station may tip, causing injury.
- Do not use station in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. This equipment has internal arcing or sparking parts. Station should not be located in a recessed area or below floor level.
- Station plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earth (grounded) chest/cabinet power
strips. Unmodified plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.
- Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.
- Maintain station. Check for misalignment or binding wheels, breakage or bending of drawer slides or other parts and any other condition that may affect the station's operation. Do not use damaged station.
- Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.

⚠ WARNING Improperly connecting the grounding wire can result in the risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the outlet is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the station. Never remove the grounding prong from the plug. Do not use the station if the cord or plug is damaged. If damaged, have it repaired before use. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
Stations with Three Prong Plugs
Stations marked "Grounding Required" have a power strip with a three wire cord and three prong grounding plug. The plug must be connected to a properly grounded outlet (See Figure A). If the power strip should electrically malfunction or break down, grounding provides a low resistance path to carry electricity away from the user, reducing the risk of electric shock.
The grounding prong in the plug is connected through the green wire inside the cord to the grounding system in the power strip. The green wire in the cord must be the only wire connected to the power strip's grounding system and must never be attached to an electrically "live" terminal.


Your power strip must be plugged into an appropriate outlet, properly installed and grounded in accordance with all codes and ordinances. The plug and outlet should look like those in Figure A.

text_image
Grease PointsCleaning
This steel product has been coated with industrial powder coating for a durable finish. To help protect the powder coated finish, do not allow harsh chemicals (oil, grease or other chemical) to remain on the powder coating surface. Use a glass cleaner to clean and maintain all surfaces of powder coating. Keep the station handles and wheels clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean your station since certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics. Some of these include: gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and household detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or combustible solvents around station.
