WARNING! Read all safety warnings, instructions,
illustrations, and specifications provided with this power
tool. Failure to follow all instructions listed below may result in
electric shock, fire, and/or serious injury.
Save all warnings and instructions for future reference.
IMPACT WRENCH SAFETY WARNINGS
Hold the power tool by the insulated gripping surfaces
only when performing an operation where the fastener may
contact hidden wiring. Contact with a “live wire makes the
exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the
operator an electric shock.
Wear ear protectors. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.
ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND WORKING INSTRUCTIONS
Use protective equipment. Always wear safety glasses when
working with the product. The use of protective clothing is
recommended, such as dust mask, protective gloves, sturdy
non-slip footwear, helmet, and ear defenders.
The dust produced when using this product may be harmful to
health. Do not inhale the dust. Wear a suitable dust protection
mask.
Do not machine any materials that present a danger to health
(e.g., asbestos).
Turn off the product immediately if the insertion tool stalls.
Do not turn on the product while the insertion tool is stalled,
as doing so could trigger a sudden recoil with a high reactive
force. Determine why the insertion tool stalled and rectify this,
paying heed to the safety instructions.
The possible causes may be:
●The insertion tool is tilted in the workpiece.
●The insertion tool has pierced through the material.
●The power tool is overloaded.
Do not reach into the product while it is running.
The insertion tool may become hot during use.
WARNING! Danger of burns
●when changing products
●when setting the product down
Sawdust and splinters must not be removed while the product
is running.
When working on walls, ceilings, or floors, take care to avoid
electric cables, and gas pipes or water pipes.
Clamp your workpiece with a clamping device. Unclamped
workpieces can cause severe injury and damage.
Remove the battery pack before starting any work on the
product.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse
or by burning them. MILWAUKEE distributors offer to retrieve
old batteries to protect our environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects
(short circuit risk).
Use only M12 System chargers for charging M12 System
battery packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers, and store them
only in dry rooms. Keep battery packs and chargers dry at all
times.
Battery acid may leak from damaged batteries under extreme
load or extreme temperatures. In case of contact with battery
acid, wash it off immediately with soap and water. In case
of eye contact, rinse thoroughly for at least 10 minutes and
immediately seek medical attention.
ADDITIONAL BATTERY SAFETY WARNINGS
WARNING! To reduce the risk of fire, personal injury, and
product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your
tool, battery pack, or charger in fluid or allow a fluid to flow
inside them. Corrosive or conductive fluids, such as seawater,
certain industrial chemicals, and bleach or bleach-containing
products, etc., can cause a short circuit.
SPECIFIED CONDITIONS OF USE
The cordless impact wrench can be used to tighten and loosen
nuts and bolts wherever no mains connection is available.
Do not use the product for any other purpose.
DRIVE CONTROL
The drive control button is used to adjust the rotation
speed (RPM) for the application.
In Auto shut off mode, the product drives forward at a
reduced RPM until the torque is achieved.
In reverse, the product will operate at full RPM to remove
fasteners at full torque.
IMPACTING TECHNIQUES
The longer a bolt, screw, or nut is impacted, the tighter it
becomes.
To help prevent damaging the fasteners or workpieces, avoid
excessive impacting.
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 fasteners 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%–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.
OPERATION
NOTE: After fastening, it is recommended to always check
the torque with a torque wrench.
The fastening torque is affected by a wide variety of factors,
including the following:
●State of battery charge – When the battery is discharged,
voltage drops and the fastening torque is reduced.
