OPERATION WARNING
To reduce the risk of injury, wear
safety goggles or glasses with side
shields.
Selecting Speed
The speed selector is on top of the motor
housing. Allow the tool to come to a complete
stop before changing speeds. See “Ap-
plications” for recommended speeds under
various conditions.
1. For Low speed (up to 500 RPM), push
the speed selector to the left.
2. For High speed (up to 1700 RPM), push
the speed selector to the right.
Using Keyless Chucks
Your cordless tool is equipped with a spindle
lock. The chuck can be tightened with one
hand, creating higher grip strengths on the
bit.
Always remove the battery pack or lock the
trigger before inserting or removing bits.
1. To open the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve
in the counterclockwise direction.
When using drill bits, allow the bit to
strike the bottom of the chuck. Center
the bit in the chuck jaws and lift it about
1/16" off of the bottom.
When using screwdriver bits, insert the
bit far enough for the chuck jaws to grip
the hex of the bit.
2. To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve
in the clockwise direction. The bit is se-
cure when the chuck makes a ratcheting
sound and the sleeve can not be rotated
any further.
3. To remove the bit, turn the sleeve in the
counterclockwise direction.
NOTE: A ratcheting sound may be heard
when the chuck is opened or closed. This
noise is part of the locking feature, and
does not indicate a problem with the chuck's
operation.

Selecting Hammer or Drill Action
MILWAUKEE Hammer-Drills are designed
for three operating modes: drilling with
hammering action, drilling only, and driving
screws. To set the operating mode, rotate
the hammer/drill selector collar and torque
selector collar to the desired symbols.
1. To use the hammer-drilling mode
(Fig. 5), rotate the hammer/drill selector
collar until the hammer symbol ap-
pears in line with the arrow. Then rotate
the Torque selector collar until the drill
symbol appears in line with the ar-
row. Apply pressure to the bit to engage
the hammering mechanism.
NOTE: When using carbide bits, do not
use water to settle dust. Do not attempt
to drill through steel reinforcing rods.
This will damage the carbide bits.

To Drive Screws
2. To use the drilling only mode (Fig. 6),
rotate the hammer/drill selector collar
until the drill symbol appears in line
with the arrow. Then rotate the Torque
selector collar until the drill symbol mmm
appears in line with the arrow.
The adjustable clutch ,when properly ad-
justed, will slip at a preset torque to prevent
driving the screw too deep into different
materials and to prevent damage to the
screw or tool.
3. To use the driving screws mode
(Fig. 7), rotate the hammer/drill selector
collar until the drill symbol appears
in line with the arrow. Then rotate the
torque selector collar until the desired
clutch setting appears in line with the
arrow.
The torque specifications shown here are ap-
proximate values.
NOTE: Because the above settings are only
a guide, use a piece of scrap material to test
the different clutch positions before driving
screws into the workpiece.
