LONG-LASTING POWER: HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR CORDLESS IMPACT WRENCH

When you make an investment into a new impact wrench, you want to be sure that it’s going to last as long as possible and perform well. Part of ensuring your impact wrench performs day in and day out is preventative maintenance. The following is a brief guide to performing preventative maintenance on your cordless impact tool.

Never Use Incorrect Sockets or Bits
When you work with a Milwaukee impact wrench, the sockets or bits that go with it are just as important. If you use the wrong sockets, there is a danger of breakage to the parts. Also, it can increase the chance of accidents and injuries.

Inspect the Battery Regularly
Regularly check the battery for signs of wear, damage, or leakage. Never use a cordless impact wrench with a damaged or compromised battery. If any issues are found, replace the battery immediately to ensure safe and efficient operation.

Check the Parts Regularly
If any parts of the impact wrench show signs of damage, or are not aligned properly, it must be repaired before further use. Always use the services of a qualified service technician for repair and maintenance. If the tool does not start running when you switch it on, you must have it inspected and repaired.

Clean and Maintain Accessories
Keep your Milwaukee impact wrench accessories protected from wet conditions, excessive heat and sun. Ensure they are clean and free of debris or dirt. Accumulated dirt can cause misalignment or jamming of the parts, which can damage the tool itself.

Never Apply Excessive Torque
Applying excessive torque can damage the studs and sockets with which you work. This can lead to dangerous accidents. Cover Milwaukee impact wrench housing with a protective cover to protect it from the elements.

Avoid Overworking the Tool
Prolonged heavy use can cause overheating and wear on the motor and battery. If you’re working on a high-demand task, take breaks to give the tool a chance to cool down.

Replace Worn Parts Promptly
Don't delay replacing worn-out or damaged parts. Parts like the anvil, chuck, or battery may wear out over time, but using the tool with these damaged parts can lead to more serious issues down the road.

Clean and Store the Impact Wrench after Every Use
After using Milwaukee impact wrench, wipe it clean and lubricate it with a lubricating oil. Do this in a well-ventilated area. You can do this by pouring tool oil into the inlet and then turn on the tool for some time. This will ensure the lubrication of all moving parts. Avoid any cleaning or lubrication products that contain detergent. Store the tool in a dry, enclosed location.

Regular maintenance of Milwaukee cordless impact wrench will keep it running smoothly and help it last longer. By inspecting, cleaning, and lubricating the tool, as well as using it correctly, you can count on its reliable performance for many years. Keeping your impact wrench in top shape is a smart way to protect your investment, ensuring both optimal performance and safety during every project.
