Product Information

Full details

This Milwaukee M18FPD2-0 is an 18V Li-Ion FUEL Percussion Drill designed for professionals and serious DIYers needing superior power and efficiency. Its standout benefit is an unmatched torque of 135 Nm, making tough drilling and driving tasks manageable. A potential caveat is that it's a tool-only option unless purchased as a kit, requiring separate battery and charger acquisition if not already owned. Key features include its brushless motor for increased power and runtime, three modes for versatility (drill, hammer drill, driver), and a compact design for improved ergonomics.

How does the M18FPD2-0 differ from other M18 drills?

Troubleshooting

Drill not powering on

Ensure the M18 battery is fully charged and properly seated in the tool. Check battery contacts for dirt and clean if necessary.

Reduced power or slow performance

The battery may be low on charge. Charge the battery fully. Ensure air vents are clear and the chuck is not overtightened on the bit, causing drag.

Chuck is difficult to open or close

Check the chuck for debris. Ensure the correct bit is inserted and try opening/closing it firmly. If persistent, a service check may be needed.

Hammer function not engaging

Verify that the tool is set to the hammer drill mode (icon typically shows a hammer). Ensure you are not applying excessive pressure, which can disengage the hammer mechanism on some models.
