Using the Milwaukee 2567-22 high-speed ratchet is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged by using the included charger. You can use the ratchet either with the motor engaged for power or manually when you need more control. The LED light is handy when working in dark areas - just turn it on. The extended paddle switch gives you different ways to hold the tool, so find the grip that's most comfortable for you. When using the ratchet, don't overload it as the REDLINK PLUS™ Intelligence will protect the tool and battery, but it's still best to work within its limits. For maintenance, keep the ratchet clean. Wipe it down after each use, especially if it's been in a dirty or corrosive environment. The proprietary rubber is durable, but try to avoid excessive contact with harsh chemicals. Check the battery regularly and store it in a cool, dry place. And since it's part of the M12™ system, you can easily swap batteries with other compatible tools in the system.
