The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 3/8-inch Compact Impact Wrench with Friction Ring stands out as the most compact in its class. It gives you excellent access in tight spots, a powerful nut-busting torque of up to 250 ft-lbs, and great visibility in your workspace. This battery-operated impact wrench is just 4.8 inches long. Its POWERSTATE Brushless motor provides the strength to remove tough fasteners, even in confined areas. The wrench features tri-LEDs around the anvil, offering brighter light with fewer shadows. The 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL gives you more precision. You can select from a range of pre-set RPM and IPM levels with a single button on the tool. Mode 4 has an AUTO SHUT-OFF control that applies no more than 20 ft-lbs of torque for hand-tight fastening, preventing overtightening. It also has Bolt Removal Control that delivers full torque, then slows down RPMs once the bolt is loosened to stop fastener drops. The REDLINK PLUS Intelligence electronics enable these controls while ensuring top performance and protecting the tool from overloads, overheating, and over-discharge. This kit includes one M18 FUEL 3/8-inch Compact Impact Wrench, one M18 CP3AH high Output Battery, one M12/M18 Charger, and one Contractor Bag. It offers long-lasting performance and is well-protected against jobsite, weather, and environmental conditions. It's compatible with all M18 batteries and chargers and can work in up to 69kV environments.
Using this Milwaukee impact wrench is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted into the tool. Then, select the appropriate mode on the 4-Mode DRIVE CONTROL according to your task. For general fastening, you can 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 give you more control. When using the tool, always wear appropriate safety gear like safety glasses and gloves. Don't use the tool in wet or damp conditions. Keep the tool away from flammable materials. For maintenance, after each use, wipe the tool clean with a dry cloth. Check the battery regularly and charge it as needed. If you notice any damage to the tool or battery, stop using it immediately and have it repaired by a professional. Also, store the tool in a dry and cool place, preferably in the provided contractor bag.
