TOOL ASSEMBLY
CHARGING AND USING BATTERY PACK
Charge your battery pack before using your tool for the first time and
when your tool no longer performs with the power and torque needed for
the job. Full loading capacity of battery pack is only reached after
4 - 5 chargings. Never completely discharge the battery pack. Standard
charging time will vary according to the type of charger you use. The
charging time will also vary depending on the supply voltage and charge
needed. For example, if your battery pack does not require a full charge,
charging time will be less.
FOR SPECIFIC CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS, PLEASE READ THE
CHARGER INSTRUCTION SHEET SUPPLIED WITH YOUR CHARGER.
Battery packs are affected by temperature. Your battery pack will
perform best and have longest life if it is charged when the temperature
is between 60°-80°F (15°-27°C). Do not charge in temperatures below
40°F (5°C) or above 105°F (40°C). Under these conditions, capacity will
be reduced. See “Maintenance”.
Charge only
MILWAUKEE 12, 14.4 and 18
Volt battery packs in chargers. Other types
of batteries may explode causing personal
injury and damage.
WARNING!
Installing Side Handle
A side handle has been supplied with your tool. It can be
attached to the gear case on either side of the drill. Because of the high
torque of this drill, the side handle must always be used when operating
the drill. To attach the side handle, screw the threaded end of the side
handle into the hole on the drill's gear case.
1.
Remove the chuck from the drill following instructions (see “Removing
the Chuck from the Drill”). Slip the double hex coupling (1) over the
hex on the drill spindle.
Loosen the clamping screws on the clamping sleeve (2) and slip the
sleeve onto the drill collar.
2.
Slide the right angle drill head (3) into the other side of the sleeve
and turn the drive head slightly in either direction so the hexagonal
hole in the coupling engages the hexagonal portion of the spindle.
NOTE:
Attaching the drill chuck to the side designated “low” reduces
the speed by 1/3, or 33%. Attaching the drill chuck to the opposite
side of the right angle drill head increases the speed by 1/2, or 50%.
3.
When assembled, turn the right angle head to the desired position
and tighten the clamping screws to secure the unit. Thread the chuck
onto the right angle drive spindle and install the chuck screw.

Ring Clamp Side Handle For Right Angle Drive Unit
A ring clamp side handle is supplied with Right Angle Drive Units. This
handle clamps onto the Right Angle Drive Unit and swivels 360° to be
locked tight in any position. When using the Right Angle Drive Unit, do
not use the side handle. When using the D-Handle Drill without the Right
Angle Drive Unit, do not clamp the ring clamp side handle to the front of
the gear case; instead, use the side handle.

To reduce the risk of injury, always remove
battery pack before attaching or removing ac-
cessories. Use only specifically recommended
accessories. Others may be hazardous.
WARNING!
To reduce the risk of injury, always use a
side handle when using this tool. This tool
operates with high torque. Always brace or
hold the tool securely.
