Mounting Milwaukee charger to wall?

[slackdaddy1]

Wanting to mount my Milwaukee M18/M12 combo charger to the wall for ONE handed operation.
I se it has 2 "T' slots on the back, and one can slip them over 2 screws.
But that would not hold it securely to the wall, and would lift off the screws when pulling the battery.

Does anyone have a good example of a "clean" , secure mount?

Works fine for me with pan head screws and not drywall type. You can also drive third screw sticking out next to the charger to lock it from being able to slide.

Damn,, so simple a cave man could do it.
A simple, obvious solution I never even thought about

Thanks,

I agree. That’s so simple I feel dumb.

Just play with the depth of the screws until it’s tight to push the charger onto them... Have several on the wall and they never move

Yep, works as designed. Would be nice if it had clear instructions on exactly how to do it. Once you figure it out, it makes perfect sense.

This. I find countersunk screws to be the easiest for this, you can get it nice and tight and it doesn't move.

Third screw isn't needed on one of these chargers but definitely a handy trick for hanging bins you want to stay put. I also use it on the Milwaukee 50 utility blade holder...which, btw, fits 100 blades in it.

I have the diploma and all the supporting certificates. My comment was directed at others who might struggle with the process. I've got mine hung on the wall - years ago in fact.

By the way, admission is not free. It's costs vary depending on your selected courses and their pre-requisites.

I have two mounted to the wall and this is the critical piece. You want to keep trial fitting until you have to push hard to get it to mount.

I used Geartrack and their brackets. This is the Whirlpool-Gladiator line of cabinets, and how they hang them. I used a piece of the metal track which clips-into the Geartrack, behind each charger.
