The MILWAUKEE® M18 FUEL™ 1/2' Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring stands out as the most compact in its class. It offers excellent access in tight spots, packs up to 250 ft - lbs of nut - busting torque, and ensures great visibility in the workspace. Measuring just 4.9' in length, it's powered by a POWERSTATE™ Brushless motor. This motor provides the muscle to remove even the most stubborn fasteners, even when you're working in confined areas. The 3/8' impact wrench comes with tri - LEDs around the anvil. These LEDs give off bright light with fewer shadows, making your work area clearer. The 4 - Mode DRIVE CONTROL™ gives you more precision. You can select from a range of pre - set RPM and IPM levels with a single button on the tool. In Mode 4, the AUTO SHUT - OFF™ control applies a maximum of 20 ft - lbs of torque for hand - tight fastening, preventing over - tightening. Mode 4 also has Bolt Removal Control. It delivers full torque, then slows down RPMs once the bolt is loosened to stop fasteners from dropping. REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence electronics make these features possible, while protecting the tool from overloads, over - heating, and over - discharge. The included M18™ REDLITHIUM™ 2.0Ah battery pack fits all M18™ tools, offering more work per charge and over the battery's lifespan. It also works in up to 69kV environments and is compatible with all M18™ batteries and chargers.
Using this Milwaukee impact wrench is easy. First, make sure you have a compatible M18™ battery installed. Then, select the appropriate mode on the 4 - Mode DRIVE CONTROL™ based on your task. For general tightening or loosening, you can choose one of the first three modes. If you're doing hand - tight fastening, switch to Mode 4 to prevent over - tightening. When removing bolts, Mode 4's Bolt Removal Control will help you avoid dropping the fasteners. When using the tool, always wear appropriate safety gear like safety glasses. Don't use it in wet or damp conditions, and keep it away from flammable materials. To maintain your impact wrench, clean it regularly with a dry cloth. After long - term use, check the battery's charge level and store it properly. Also, inspect the tool for any signs of damage and have it repaired by a professional if needed.
