Driving Wood Screws
When driving wood screws, a pilot hole is recom-
mended to make driving easier and to prevent
splitting the wood. As a general rule, the pilot hole
should have a diameter of approximately 70% the
size of the screw diameter. Hardwood pilot holes
should have a diameter of approximately 90%
the size of the screw diameter. The depth of the
pilot hole should be shorter than the length of the
screw by at least one screw diameter. This allows
the tip of the screw to bite into the wood for extra
holding power.
Counterbore the top portion of the hole for a free
fi t of the shank between the screw head and the
threads. When using fl at head screws, countersink
the top of the hole to allow the screw head to be
driven fl ush with the work surface. Use soap or wax
for easier screw insertion if necessary.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
always unplug your tool before performing
any maintenance. Never disassemble the tool
or try to do any rewiring on the tool's electrical
system. Contact a MILWAUKEE service facility
for ALL repairs.
Maintaining Tools
Keep your tool in good repair by adopting a regular
maintenance program. Before use, examine the
general condition of your tool. Inspect guards,
switches, tool cord set and extension cord for
damage. Check for loose screws, misalignment,
binding of moving parts, improper mounting, bro-
ken parts and any other condition that may affect
its safe operation. If abnormal noise or vibration
occurs, turn the tool off immediately and have the
problem corrected before further use. Do not use a
damaged tool. Tag damaged tools "DO NOT USE"
until repaired (see "Repairs").
Under normal conditions, relubrication is not neces-
sary until the motor brushes need to be replaced.
After six months to one year, depending on use,
return your tool to the nearest MILWAUKEE service
facility for the following:
• Lubrication
• Brush inspection and replacement
• Mechanical inspection and cleaning (gears, spin-
dles, bearings, housing, etc.)
• Electrical inspection (switch, cord, armature, etc.)
• Testing to assure proper mechanical and electrical
operation
WARNING
electric shock and damage to the tool, never
immerse your tool in liquid or allow a liquid
to fl ow inside the tool.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep the tool
handles clean, dry and free of oil or grease. Use
only mild soap and a damp cloth to clean your
tool since certain cleaning agents and solvents
are harmful to plastics and other insulated parts.
Some of these include: gasoline, turpentine, lacquer
thinner, paint thinner, chlorinated cleaning solvents,
ammonia and household detergents containing
ammonia. Never use fl ammable or combustible
solvents around tools.
Repairs
If your tool is damaged, return the entire tool to the
nearest service center.
