Recalibration:
To maintain high-precision torque, the tool will oc-
casionally need to be recalibrated. To signify that
the tool may be out of an acceptable tolerance
torque range, theTorque LED will fl ash after the
trigger is released. The tool can continue to be used
for jobs not requiring accurate torque, but should
be returned to a MILWAUKEE service facility for
recalibration before using for precision torque work.
Please send the M12™ No–Hub Coupling Drill
Driver needing service of the torque mechanism
(or if tool has reached its 25,000 cycles) to:

Milwaukee Electric Tool Corporation

13135 West Lisbon Road

Brookfi eld, Wisconsin 53005

Attention: After–Sales Service

to calibrate the M12™ No–Hub Coupling Drill Driver
to manufacturer’s specifi cation of 60/80 in–lbs,
using calibrated test equipment traceable to the
National Institute of Standards and Technology
Standards. Product will be returned with manu-
facturer’s statement of calibration. There is an ad-
ditional charge to obtain a separate NIST - National
Institute of Standards and Technology Standards
“Certifi cate of Calibration”.

Using the Control Switch
The control switch may be set to
three positions: forward, reverse
and lock. Due to a lockout mecha-
nism, the control switch can only be
adjusted when the ON/OFF switch
is not pressed. Always allow the
motor to come to a complete stop
before using the control switch.
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 con-
trol 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 pack
before performing maintenance,
changing accessories, storing the tool and any time
the tool is not in use.

Battery Pack Protection
To protect the battery from damage and extend
its life, the tool’s intelligent circuit monitors current
draw, temperature, and voltage drops.
In extremely high torque, binding, stalling, and short
circuit situations that cause high current draw, the
fuel gauge will fl ash, and the tool will turn OFF. To
reset, release the trigger.
Under extreme circumstances, the internal tem-
perature of the battery could become too high.
If this happens, the fuel gauge will fl ash and the
battery pack will shut off. Let the battery pack cool
and then continue work.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of elec-

tric shock, check work area for hidden pipes
and wires before drilling or driving screws.

This tool provides a quick, convenient means of drill-
ing small holes and installing and removing bands.

Drilling in Wood, Composition Materials and
Plastic
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 splinter-
ing, back work with a piece of scrap wood.
During binding or high torque drilling applications,
the tool may shut down. To reset, release the trigger.

Tightening/Removing Bands
Adjust the clutch to the proper setting as indicated
by the band manufacterer. Place the proper size
socket into the tool. Fit the socket over the band fas-
tener and pull the trigger. When the proper torque
is reqched, the clutch will slip, the tool will stop,
and the torque LED will light. Release the trigger.
When removing bands, it may be necessary to
slightly loosen the band fastener by hand before
using the tool's reverse. Fit the socket over the band
fastener. Manually rotate the tool counterclockwise
to release the torque on the fastener. Put the tool into
reverse and pull the trigger fo fully release the band.

Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.
After six months to one year, depending on use,
return the tool, battery pack and charger to A
MILWAUKEE
service facility for:
• Lubrication
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears, spin-

dles, bearings, housing, etc.)

• Electrical inspection (battery pack, charger, motor)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and electrical

operation

If the tool does not start or operate at full power
with a fully charged battery pack, clean the contacts
on the battery pack. If the tool still does not work
properly, return the tool, charger and battery pack,
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.

Fuel Gauge
To determine the amount of charge left in the bat-
tery, pull the trigger. The Fuel Gauge will light up for
2-3 seconds. To signal the end of charge, 1 light on
the fuel gauge will fl ash for 2-3 seconds.

Installing Bits and Sockets

When properly adjusted, the clutch
will slip at the set torque to prevent
over-tightening and possibly damag-
ing the bands.
To tighten bands, turn the mode
selector collar so the arrow lines up
with either 60 or 80, as indicated by
the band manufacterer.
To drill, turn the mode selector collar
so the arrow lines up with .

Torque LED
