OPERATION

WARNING Always remove battery pack before changing or removing accesso- ries. Only use accessories specifically recom- mended for this tool. Others may be hazardous.

WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, wear safety goggles or glasses with side shields.

Fuel Gauge

To determine the amount of charge left in the bat- tery, pull the trigger. The Fuel Gauge will light up for 2-3 seconds.

To signal the end of charge, 1 light on the fuel gauge will flash for 2-3 seconds.

Using Control Switch

The control switch may be set to three positions: forward, reverse and lock. Due to a lockout mecha- nism, the control switch can only be adjusted when the ON/OFF switch is not pressed. Always allow the motor to come to a complete stop before using the control switch.

PUSH TO CENTER TO LOCK

For forward (clockwise) rotation, push the control switch in the direction shown. Check the direction of rotation before use.

For reverse (counterclockwise) rotation, push the control switch in the direction shown. Check the direction of rotation before use.

To lock the trigger, push the control switch to the center position. The trigger will not work when the control switch is in the locked position.

Always lock the trigger or remove the battery pack before performing maintenance, changing accessories, storing the tool and any time the tool is not in use.

Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed These tools may be operated at any speed from 0 to full speed.

1.To start the tool, pull the trigger. NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is pulled.

2.To vary the driving speed, simply increase or decrease pressure on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled, the greater the speed.

3.To stop the tool, release the trigger.

Impacting Techniques

The longer a bolt, screw, or nut is impacted, the tighter it will become. To help prevent damaging the fasteners or workpieces, avoid excessive impact-

ing. Be particularly careful when impacting smaller fasteners because they require less impacting to reach optimum torque.

Practice with various fasteners, noting the length of time required to reach the desired torque. Check the tightness with a hand-torque wrench. If the fasten- ers are too tight, reduce the impacting time. If they are not tight enough, increase the impacting time. Oil, dirt, rust or other matter on the threads or under the head of the fastener affects the degree of tightness.

The torque required to loosen a fastener averages 75% to 80% of the tightening torque, depending on the condition of the contacting surfaces.

On light gasket jobs, run each fastener down to a relatively light torque and use a hand torque wrench for final tightening.

MAINTENANCE

WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always unplug the charger and remove the battery pack from the charger or tool before performing any maintenance. Never disas- semble the tool, battery pack or charger. Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.

Maintaining Tool

Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good repair by adopting a regular maintenance program. After six months to one year, depending on use, return the tool, battery pack and charger to A MILWAUKEE service facility for:

•Lubrication

•Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears, spin- dles, bearings, housing, etc.)

•Electrical inspection (battery pack, charger, motor)

•Testing to assure proper mechanical and electrical operation

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 properly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.

WARNING To reduce the risk of per- sonal injury and damage, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in liquid or allow a liquid to flow inside them.

Cleaning

Clean dust and debris from charger and tool vents. Keep tool handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean the tool, battery pack and charger since certain cleaning agents and solvents are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts. Some of these include gasoline, turpentine, lacquer thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents, ammonia and house- hold detergents containing ammonia. Never use flammable or combustible solvents around tools.

Repairs

For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and charger to the nearest service center.
