milwaukee M18FHIW2P12 Compact Impact Wrench with Pin Detent

Overview Description

TECHNICAL DATA

WARNING
The vibration and noise emission level given in this information sheet has been measured by 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 levels represent 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 doing the job. This may significantly reduce the exposure level over the total working period. Identify additional safety measures to protect the operator from the effects of vibration and/or noise such as: maintaining the tool and the accessories, keeping the hands warm, and 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.

SAFETY INSTRUCTION

IMPACT DRIVER SAFETY WARNINGS
Wear ear protectors. Noise exposure can cause hearing loss. 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.

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.

WARNING! The danger of burns

• when changing tools
• when setting the device down
• Chips and splinters must not be removed while the machine is running.
• When working on walls ceilings, or floors, 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 fire, personal injury, and product damage due to a short circuit, never immerse your tool, battery pack or charger in fluid or allow fluid to flow 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.

RESIDUAL RISK
Even when the product is used as prescribed, it is still impossible to eliminate certain residual risk factors. The following hazards may arise in use and the operator should pay special attention to avoid the following:

• Injury caused by vibration.
  Hold the product by designated handles and restrict working time and exposure.

• Noise exposure can cause hearing injury.
  Wear ear protection and limit exposure.

• Injury due to flying debris
  Wear eye protection, heavy long trousers, gloves and substantial footwear at all times.

• Inhalation of toxic dusts.

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 at 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 the 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 affect 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 impact 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 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.

DRIVE CONTROL

• Torque values depend on many factors such as state of battery discharge, battery size, impacting time, bolt size, etc. Always check with a torque wrench to ensure the desired torque value is achieved.
• This is not a precision fastening tool.
• In mode, when run in reverse, the tool will spin at the above RPM and IPM until the nut breaks free from the joint. Then, the tool slows to 750 RPM for better control in removing the nut.

NOTES FOR LI-ION BATTERIES

Use of Li-Ion batteries

• Batteries that have not been used for some time should be recharged before use.
• Temperatures over 50°C (122°F) reduce the performance of the battery. Avoid extended exposure to heat or sunshine (risk of overheating).
• The contacts of chargers and batteries must be kept clean.
• For an optimum lifetime, the batteries have to be fully charged, after used.
• To obtain the longest possible battery life remove the battery from the charger once it is fully charged.

For battery storage longer than 30 days:

• Store the battery where the temperature is below 27°C and away from moisture
• Store the battery in a 30% – 50% charged condition Every six months of storage, charge the battery as normal.

Battery protection for Li-Ion Akkus

• In extremely high torque, binding, stalling and short circuit situations that cause a high current draw, the tool will vibrate for about 5 seconds, the fuel gauge will flash, and then the tool will turn OFF. To reset, release the trigger.
• Under extreme circumstances, the internal temperature of the battery pack could rise too much. If this happens, the fuel gauge will flash until the battery pack cooled down. After the lights go off, the work may continue.

Transport of Lithium Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are subject to the Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements.

Transportation of those batteries has to be done by 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 circuits.
• Ensure that the battery pack is secured against movement within the packaging.
• Do not transport batteries that are cracked or leak.

Check with the forwarding company for further advice.
