Drilling in Masonry
When drilling in masonry, select the
hammer drill
operating mode. Use high speed carbide-tipped bits.
Drilling soft masonry materials such as cinder block
requires little pressure. Hard materials like concrete
require more pressure. A smooth, even flow of dust
indicates the proper drilling rate. Do not let the bit
spin in the hole without cutting. Do not use water to
settle dust or to cool bit. Both actions will damage
the carbide.
Driving Screws and Nut Running
Drill a pilot hole when driving screws into thick or hard
materials.
Set the torque selector collar to the proper
position and set the speed to low. Use the proper
style and size screwdriver bit for the type of screw
you are using. With the screwdriver bit in the screw,
place the tip of the screw on the workpiece and apply
firm pressure before pulling the trigger. Screws can
be removed by reversing the motor.
Overloading
Continuous overloading may cause permanent dam-
age to tool or battery pack.
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
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.
Inspect your tool for issues such as undue noise,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, or any other condition that may affect the tool
operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for inspection.
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 prop
-
erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of personal in-
jury 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 vents. Keep handles
clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild
soap and a damp cloth to clean, since certain clean-
ing 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 household deter-
gents 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.
