Using the Milwaukee 2470 - 21 M12 Cordless PVC Shear is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged and properly inserted. Then, place the PVC pipe you want to cut between the blade and the shear head. Squeeze the variable - speed trigger to start the cutting process. You can control the speed according to the weather and your needs. When cutting PVC pipes close to a wall or a stud, use the offset blade for better access.
Here are some important notes. Always wear safety goggles to protect your eyes from any flying debris. Don't try to cut materials that are larger than the specified capacity of 2 - inch PVC. Also, avoid using the tool in wet conditions to prevent damage to the electrical components.
For maintenance, after each use, wipe the blade and the shear head with a clean cloth to remove any debris. If the blade gets dull over time, you can use the on - board blade wrench to replace it. Keep the battery in a cool and dry place when not in use, and charge it regularly to maintain its performance. This will ensure your Milwaukee PVC shear lasts for a long time and always performs at its best.
