WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has
been measured in accordance with a standardized test given in EN 62841 and may
be used to compare one tool with another. It may be used for a preliminary
assessment of exposure.
The declared vibration and noise emission level represents the main
applications of the tool. However if the tool is used for different
applications, with different accessories or poorly maintained, the vibration
and noise emission may differ. This may significantly increase the exposure
level over the total working period.
An estimation of the level of exposure to vibration and noise should also take
into account the times when the tool is switched off or when it is running but
not actually doing the job. This may signifi \cantly reduce the exposure level
over the total working period.
Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of
vibration and noise such as: maintain the tool and the accessories, keep the
hands warm, organization of work patterns.
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 insulated gripping surfaces, when performing an
operation where the fastener may contact hidden wiring. Fasteners contacting a
„live“ wire may make 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
machine. 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 tool 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).
Switch the device off immediately if the insertion tool stalls! Do not switch
the device on again 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:
- it is tilted in the workpiece to be machined
- it has pierced through the material to be machined
- the power tool is overloaded
Do not reach into the machine while it is running. The insertion tool may become hot during use.
- when changing tools
- when setting the device down
Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.
When working in walls ceiling, or fl oor, take care to avoid electric cables
and gas or waterpipes.
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 machine.
Do not dispose of used battery packs in the household refuse or by burning
them. Milwaukee Distributors off er to retrieve old batteries to protect our
environment.
Do not store the battery pack together with metal objects
(short circuit risk). Use only System M18 chargers for charging System M18
battery packs. Do not use battery packs from other systems.
Never break open battery packs and chargers and store only in dry rooms. Keep
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.
Warning! To reduce the risk of fi re, 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 fl ow 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 this product in any other way as stated for normal use.

OPERATION
Note: It is recommended after fastening 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 will drop and the fastening torque will be reduced.
- Operation at speeds – Operating the tool at low speeds will cause a reduction in fastening torques.
- Fastening position – Holding the tool or the driving fastener in various angles will affect the torque.
- Drive accessory/socket – Failure to use the correct size accessory or socket, or a non-impact rated accessory may cause a reduction in the fastening torque.
- Use of accessories and extensions – Depending on the accessory or extension fitment can reduce the fastening force of the impact wrench.
- Bolt/Nut – Fastening torques may differ according to the diameter of the nut or bolt, the class of nut/bolt and the length of nut/bolt.
- Condition of the fastener – Contaminated, corroded, dry or lubricated fasteners may vary the fastening torques.
- Condition and base material – The base material of the fastener and any component in between the surfaces may effect the fastening torque (dry or lubricated base, soft or hard base, disc, seal or washer between fastener and base material).
IMPACTING TECHNIQUES
The longer a bolt, screw, or nut is impacted, the tighter it will become.
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 aff ects 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.
BATTERIES
New battery packs reach full loading capacity after 4 – 5 charging’s and
discharging’s. Battery packs which have not been used for some time should be
recharged before use.
Temperatures in excess of 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of the battery
pack. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk of overheating). The
contacts of chargers and battery packs must be kept clean.
For an optimum life-time, the battery packs have to be fully charged, after
used.
TRANSPORTING LITHIUM BATTERIES
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation
requirements.
Transportation of those batteries has to be done in accordance with local,
national and international provisions and regulations.
- The user can transport the batteries by road without further requirements.
- Commercial transport of Lithium-Ion batteries by third parties is subject to Dangerous Goods regulations. Transport preparation and transport are exclusively to be carried out by appropriately trained persons and the process has to be accompanied by corresponding experts.
When transporting batteries:
- Ensure that battery contact terminals are protected and insulated to prevent short circuit.
- Ensure that battery pack is secured against movement within packaging.
- Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak. Check with forwarding company for further advice
BATTERY PACK PROTECTION
The battery pack has overload protection that protects it from being overloaded and helps to ensure long life. Under extreme stress the battery electronics switch off the machine automatically. To restart, switch the machine off and then on again. If the machine does not start up again, the battery pack may have discharged completely. In this case it must be recharged in the battery charger.
MAINTENANCE
Use only Milwaukee accessories and spare parts. Should components need to be
replaced which have not been described, please contact one of our Milwaukee
service agents (see our list of guarantee/service addresses).
If needed, an exploded view of the tool can be ordered. Please state the
machine type printed as well as the six-digit No. on the label and order the
drawing at your local service agents or directly at: Techtronic Industries
GmbH,
Max-Eyth-Straße 10, 71364 Winnenden, Germany.
