The MILWAUKEE® M18 FUEL™ 1/2' Compact Impact Wrench with Pin Detent stands out as the most compact in its class. It packs a punch with more power, allowing for easy access in tight spaces, thanks to its mere 4.9' length. You'll also enjoy maximum visibility in your workspace. This cordless impact wrench is equipped with a POWERSTATE™ Brushless motor. It can generate up to 250 ft - lbs of fastening and nut - busting torque, making installation and removal a breeze, even in confined areas. The tri - LEDs around the anvil offer brighter light and fewer shadows. With the 4 - Mode DRIVE CONTROL™, you get greater precision. You can select from a range of pre - set RPM and IPM levels right from 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 overtightening. The Bolt Removal Control in Mode 4 delivers full torque output, then slows down RPMs once the bolt is loosened to avoid fastener drops. The REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence electronics ensure top - notch performance and protect the tool from overloads, over - heating, and over - discharge. The M18™ REDLITHIUM™ battery pack (not included) is compatible with M18™ cordless power tools, giving you more work per charge and over the pack's lifespan.
Using the Milwaukee M18 FUEL™ 1/2 Compact Impact Wrench is straightforward. First, make sure you've inserted a compatible M18™ battery. Then, select the appropriate mode on the 4 - Mode DRIVE CONTROL™ for your task. For normal tightening or loosening, choose one of the first three modes. If you're doing hand - tight fastening, use Mode 4 to prevent overtightening. When removing bolts, Mode 4's Bolt Removal Control will help you avoid dropping the fasteners. As for safety, don't use it in environments above 69kV. Also, always wear proper safety gear like goggles. For maintenance, keep the tool clean. After each use, wipe it down to remove any dirt or debris. Check the tri - LEDs regularly to ensure they're working properly. If the tool starts to overheat or shows signs of malfunction, stop using it immediately and have it checked by a professional. This way, your impact wrench will serve you well for a long time.
