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% to 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.
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 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 vents. Keep handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use only mild soap and a damp
cloth to clean, since certain cleaning 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 authorized service center.
