Using the Control Switch
The control switch may be set to three positions: forward, re-
verse and lock. Due to a lockout
mechanism, 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.
For forward (clockwise) rotation, push in the control switch from the
right side of the tool. Check the
direction of rotation before use. 
For reverse (counterclockwise) 
rotation, push in the control switch
from the left side of the tool. 
Check direction of rotation before use.
To lock the trigger, push the con-
trol switch to the center position.
The trigger will not work while 
the control switch is in the center 
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.

Battery Pack Protection
To protect the battery from damage and extend its life, the tool’s intelligent circuit monitors current draw, temperature, and voltage drops.
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short circuit situations that cause high current draw, the fuel gauge will flash, and the tool will turn OFF. To reset, release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem- perature of the battery could become too high. If this happens, the fuel gauge will flash and the battery pack will shut off. Let the battery pack cool and then continue work.
APPLICATIONS
WARNING To reduce the risk of elec- tric shock, check work area for hidden pipesandwiresbeforedrillingordrivingscrews.
This tool provides a quick, convenient means of drilling small holes and installing and removing bands.
Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials and Plastic
Always use sharp bits. When using twist drill bits, pull the bit out of the hole frequently to clear chips from the bit flutes. To reduce the chance of splinter- ing, back work with a piece of scrap wood.
During binding or high torque drilling applications, the tool may shut down. To reset, release the trigger.
Tightening/Removing Bands
Adjust the clutch to the proper setting as indicated by the band manufacterer. Place the proper size socket into the tool. Fit the socket over the band fas- tener and pull the trigger. When the proper torque is reqched, the clutch will slip, the tool will stop, and the torque LED will light. Release the trigger.
When removing bands, it may be necessary to slightly loosen the band fastener by hand before using the tool's reverse. Fit the socket over the band fastener. Manually rotate the tool counterclockwise to release the torque on the fastener. Put the tool into reverse and pull the trigger fo fully release the band.
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 disassemble 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 re- pair 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:

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.
