MAINTENANCE
To reduce the risk of injury, always
WARNING
unplug the charger and remove the
battery pack from the charger or tool before
performing any maintenance. Never disassemble
the tool, battery pack or charger. Contact a
MILWAUKEE service facility for ALL repairs.
Maintaining Tool
Keep your tool, battery pack and charger in good
repair by adopting a regular maintenance program.
Inspect your tool for issues such as undue noise,
misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of
parts, or any other condition that may affect the tool
operation. Return the tool, battery pack, and charger
to a MILWAUKEE service facility for repair. After six
months to one year, depending on use, return the
tool, battery pack and charger to a MILWAUKEE
service facility for inspection.
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 prop-
erly, return the tool, charger and battery pack, to a
MILWAUKEE service facility for repairs.
Cleaning/Lubricating
Clean and lubricate the nose of the tool after heavy
use (5000 rivets) or if tool becomes contaminated
with dust and debris.
1. Remove battery pack.
2. Remove the nose housing from the
tool and the nose piece from the
housing.
3. Remove the guide (with jaws), push-
er tube, and spring from the tool.
4. Clean all pieces with a dry cloth and
inspect for damage. If damaged,
return to a MILWAUKEE service
facility for repairs.
5. Apply a small amount of 51-08-4290
oil to the pieces and reassemble, as
shown. Ensure the jaws are properly
seated in the guide.
To reduce the risk of
WARNING
personal injury and
damage, never immerse your tool,
battery pack or charger in liquid or
allow a liquid to flow inside them.
Cleaning
Clean dust and debris from vents. Keep
handles clean, dry and free of oil or
grease. Use only mild soap and a damp
cloth to clean, 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 con-
taining ammonia. Never use flammable or combus-
tible solvents around tools.
For repairs, return the tool, battery pack and charger
to the nearest service center.

otherwise noted. Return of the power tool to a MILWAUKEE factory
Service Center location or MILWAUKEE Authorized Service Station,

apply to damage that MILWAUKEE determines to be from repairs
made or attempted by anyone other than MILWAUKEE authorized

but not limited to, chucks, brushes, cords, saw shoes, blade clamps,
o-rings, seals, bumpers, driver blades, pistons, strikers, lifters, and

limitations above. If during normal use the LED or LED Bulb fails, the

ranty on a MILWAUKEE power tool product. The manufacturing date
of the product will be used to determine the warranty period if no proof
