• Keep work area clean and well lit. Cluttered or dark areas invite accidents.

• Do not operate power tools in explosive atmos- pheres, such as in the presence of fl ammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

• Keep children and bystanders away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control.

• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way. Do not use any adapter plugs with earthed (grounded) power tools. Unmodifi ed plugs and matching outlets will reduce risk of electric shock.

• Avoid body contact with earthed or grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is earthed or grounded.

• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet condi- tions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling or unplugging the power tool. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.

• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric shock.

• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground fault circuit inter- rupter (GFCI) protected supply. Use of an GFCI reduces the risk of electric shock. attached to a rotating part of the power tool may result in personal injury.

• Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. This enables better control of the power tool in unexpected situations.

• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your hair, clothing and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewel- lery or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

• If devices are provided for the connection of dust extraction and collection facilities, ensure these are connected and properly used. Use of dust collection can reduce dust-related hazards. WARNING READ ALL SAFETY WARNINGS AND ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to follow the warnings and instructions may result in electric shock, fi re and/or serious injury. Save all warnings and instructions for future reference. The term "power tool" in the warnings refers to your mains-operated (corded) power tool or battery-operated (cordless) power tool.

POWER TOOL USE AND CARE

• Do not force the power tool. Use the correct power tool for your application. The correct power tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

• Do not use the power tool if the switch does not turn it on and off. Any power tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

• Disconnect the plug from the power source and/or the battery pack from the power tool before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing power tools. Such pre- ventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the power tool accidentally.

• Store idle power tools out of the reach of chil- dren and do not allow persons unfamiliar with the power tool or these instructions to operate the power tool. Power tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

• Maintain power tools. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts and any other condition that may affect the power tool’s operation. If damaged, have the power tool repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained power tools.

• Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained cutting tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

• Use the power tool, accessories and tool bits etc. in accordance with these instructions, tak- ing into account the working conditions and the work to be performed. Use of the power tool for operations different from those intended could result in a hazardous situation.

• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool while you are tired or under the infl uence of drugs, alcohol or medi- cation. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

• Use personal protective equipment. Always wear eye protection. Protective equipment such as dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection used for appropriate conditions will reduce personal injuries.

• Prevent unintentional starting. Ensure the switch is in the off-position before connecting to power source and/or battery pack, picking up or carrying the tool. Carrying power tools with your fi nger on the switch or energising power tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

• Remove any adjusting key or wrench before turning the power tool on. A wrench or a key left SERVICE

• Have your power tool serviced by a qualifi ed repair person using only identical replacement parts. This will ensure that the safety of the power tool is maintained.

• Recharge only with the charger specifi ed by the manufacturer. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fi re when used with another battery pack.

• Use power tools only with specifi cally desig- nated battery packs. Use of any other battery packs may create a risk of injury and fi re.

• When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from other metal objects, like paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other small metal objects, that can make a connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the battery terminals together may cause burns or a fi re.

• Under abusive conditions, liquid may be eject- ed from the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally occurs, fl ush with water. If liquid contacts eyes, additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the battery may cause irritation or burns. where the cutting accessory may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Cutting accessory contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal parts of the power tool “live” and could give the operator an electric shock.

• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry important information. If unreadable or missing, contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free replacement.

• WARNING Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paint

• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated lumber. Your risk from these exposures varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well ventilated area, and work with approved safety equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe- cially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles.

• Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

Use auxiliary handle(s), if supplied with the tool. Loss of control can cause personal injury.

• Hold power tool by insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an operation4

Using Keyless Chucks This 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 jaws to grip the hex of the bit.

2. To close the chuck jaws, turn the sleeve in the

clockwise direction. The bit is secure 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 coun-

terclockwise 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 Speed The speed selector is on top of the motor housing. Allow the tool to come to a complete stop before changing speeds. See “Applications” for recom- mended speeds under various conditions.

1. For Low speed (up to 450 RPM), push the speed

selector to display “1”.

2. For High speed (up to 1700 RPM), push the

speed selector to display “2”. Selecting Hammer, Drill or Drive Action MILWAUKEE Hammer-Drills have three operating modes: drilling with hammering action, drilling only, and driving screws. To set the operating mode, rotate the application selector collar and torque selector collar to the desired symbols.

1. To use the hammer-drilling mode, rotate

the application selector collar until the hammer symbol appears in line with the arrow. Ap- ply pressure to the bit to engage the hammering mechanism. Torque selector collar setting Torque

PUSH TO CENTER TO LOCK

For forward (clockwise) rotation, push in the control switch from the right side of the tool. Check the direction of rotation before use. For reverse (counterclockwise) rotation, push in the control switch from the left side of the tool. Check direction of rotation before use. To lock the trigger, push the control switch to the center position. The trigger will not work while the control switch is in the center locked position. Always lock the trigger or remove the battery Starting, Stopping and Controlling Speed

1. To start the tool, grasp the handle fi rmly and pull

the trigger. NOTE: An LED is turned on when the trigger is pulled.

2. To vary the speed, increase or decrease the

pressure on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled, the greater the speed.

3. To stop the tool, release the trigger. Make sure

the bit comes to a complete stop before laying the tool down. Drilling Place the bit on the work surface and apply fi rm pressure before starting. Too much pressure will slow the bit and reduce drilling effi ciency. Too little pressure will cause the bit to slide over the work area and dull the point of the bit. If the tool begins to stall, reduce pressure slightly to allow the bit to regain speed. If the bit binds, reverse the motor to free the bit from the workpiece. NOTE: The number selected on the torque collar has no effect on operation of the drill in hammer mode. 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.

2. To use the drilling only mode, rotate the ap-

plication selector collar until the drill symbol appears in line with the arrow. NOTE: The number selected on the torque collar has no effect on operation of the drill in drilling mode.

3. To use the driving screws mode rotate the

application selector collar until the drive 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 adjustable clutch, when properly adjusted, 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. The torque specifi cations shown here are ap- proximate values.

• Max developed torque when using Milwaukee XC battery pack. NOTE: Because the above settings are only a guide, use a piece of scrap material to test the dif- ferent clutch positions before driving screws into the workpiece. APPLICATIONS WARNING To reduce the risk of elec- tric shock, check work area for hidden pipes and wires before drilling or driving screws. fl ow 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. Select the driving screws mode. 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 fi rm pressure before pulling the trigger. Screws can be removed by reversing the motor. Overloading Continuous overloading may cause permanent damage to tool or battery pack. Bit Binding A high rotational force occurs when a bit binds. If the bit binds, the tool will be forced in the opposite direction of the bit rotation. Bits may bind if they are misaligned or when they are breaking through a hole. Wood boring bits can also bind if they run into nails or knots. Be prepared for bit binding situations. To reduce the chance of bit binding:

• Use sharp bits. Sharp bits are less likely to bind when drilling.

• Use the proper bit for the job. There are bits that are designed for specifi c purposes.

• Use caution when drilling pitchy, knotty, wet or warped material or when drilling in material that may contain nails. WARNING To reduce the risk of injury, always use a side handle when using this tool. Always brace or hold securely. Ensure side handle is tightened securely before each use. pack before performing maintenance, changing accessories, storing the tool and any time the tool is not in use. Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials and Plastic When drilling in wood, composition materials and plastic, select the drill-only operating mode. Start the drill slowly, gradually increasing speed as you drill. When drilling into wood, use wood augers or twist drill bits. Always use sharp bits. When using twist drill bits, pull the bit out of the hole frequently to clear chips from the bit fl utes. To reduce the chance of splintering, back work with a piece of scrap wood. Select low speeds for plastics with a low melting point. Drilling in Metal When drilling in metal, select the drill-only operating mode. Use high speed steel twist drills or hole saws. Use a center punch to start the hole. Lubricate drill bits with cutting oil when drilling in iron or steel. Use a coolant when drilling in nonferrous metals such as copper, brass or aluminum. Back the material to prevent binding and distortion on breakthrough. 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, even6
