Milwaukee 5366-1 User manual

Installing Bits (Fig 1.)

This tool is designed with a universal drive system that

accepts SDS, SDS Plus and Hilti-TE-C style bits. Always

clean and lubricate the shank of the bit before installing it

into your tool to help prevent heat build-up and to protect the

bit shank from wear due to abrasive concrete dust.

1. To install a bit, pull

the chuck collar back

toward the tool.

2. Line up the recesses on

the shank of the bit with

the marks on the chuck

collar as shown. Then,

insert the bit into the

spindle as far as possible.

3. Release the chuck col-

lar, locking the bit into

position. Rotate the bit

slightly to be sure it is

locked securely.

4. To remove the bit, pull

the chuck collar back

toward the tool and

remove the bit.

Installing the Side Handle and the Depth Gauge

The tool is shipped with the side handle and depth rod pack-

aged separately.

1.To install the handle assembly, pry open the black handle

ring (wedging the head of a large screwdriver in the handle

ring gap may be helpful) and slip it over the nose of the gear

case, making sure that the molded keys on the inside diame-

ter of the handle ring engage the groove on the gear case.

2. Pass the bolt through the hole in the handle ring and screw

on the red side handle.

3. The depth rod passes through the auxiliary hole in the

handle ring and is clamped in place when the side handle is

tightened. To loosen the rod, partially unscrew the handle as

indicated above.

4. The drilling depth is the distance between the portion of

the bit where the flutes end and the tip of the depth rod (Fig

2.) Slide the depth rod backward or forward until it is set for

the desired depth. Then tighten the side handle securely.

Selecting Drill or Rotary Hammer Action (Fig 3.)

MILWAUKEE 3/4” Rotary Hammers have two settings: rota-

tion only or rotary hammering.

1. To select rotation only, rotate the shift knob 180° in the

direction of the double arrow so that the tab portion of the

knob points toward the “Drill” symbol. Do not shift the tool

when it is running or coasting to a stop.

When drilling in wood or steel, shift knob to Rotation Only

and use chuck adapter kit shown on page 3.

2. To select rotary hammering, rotate the shift knob 180° in

the direction of the double arrow so that the tab portion of the

knob points toward the “Hammer” symbol.

NOTE: To engage the hammering mechanism, maintain

pressure on the bit. When pressure on the bit is released, the

hammering action will stop.

Using the Forward/Reverse Switch (Fig. 4 & Fig. 5)

1. For forward (clockwise) rotation, hold the tool with the

nose pointing away from you and push the forward/reverse

switch to the left. For the pistol grip hammer, hold the tool

with the nose pointing away from you and push the

forward/reverse switch to the left.

2. For reverse (counterclockwise) rotation, hold the tool with

the nose pointing away from you and push the

forward/reverse switch to the right. To prevent damage to the

gears and motor, allow the tool to coast to a full stop before

reversing. For the pistol grip hammer, hold the tool with the

nose pointing away from you and push the forward/reverse

switch to the right. To prevent damage to the gears and

motor, allow the tool to coast to a full stop before reversing.

Starting, Stopping & Controlling Speed

1. To start the tool, pull the trigger.

2. To vary driving speed, simply increase or decrease pres-

sure on the trigger. The further the trigger is pulled, the

greater the speed.

3. To stop the tool, release the trigger.

Rotary Hammering (Fig 6.)

Position the tool, grasp the

handles firmly and pull the

trigger. Always use the side

handle. Hold the tool secure-

ly and maintain control. Use

only enough pressure to hold

the tool in place and to pre-

vent the tip of the bit from

wandering. This tool has

been designed to achieve top

performance with only mod-

erate pressure. Heavier pres-

sure will not significantly

increase the drilling rate and

it may overload the motor

and cause premature bit

wear.

If the speed begins to drop off when drilling deep holes, pull

the bit partially out of the hole while the tool is running to

help clear dust. Do not use water to settle the dust since it

will clog the bit flutes and tend to make the bit bind in the

hole. If the bit should bind, a built-in, nonadjustable slip

clutch prevents the bit from turning (a ratcheting sound will

be audible). If this occurs, stop the tool, free the bit by

switching the motor to reverse, and begin again.

Using Rotary Percussion Core Bits (Fig 7.)

Core bits are useful for drilling large holes for conduit and

pipe. MILWAUKEE Heavy-Duty Thin Wall Core Bits have

heat treated steel bodies with durable carbide tips. They are

specially designed for fast, accurate drilling with combined

hammering and rotary action.

1. Clean and lubricate the threads on the adapter and core bit

as shown to make later removal easier. Screw the threaded

end of the adapter into the rear of the core bit.

2. Push the guide plate onto the pointed end of the center pin.

Insert the center pin and guide plate assembly into the core

bit. Be sure the small end of the center pin is securely placed

into the hole in the center of the core bit.

3. Insert the adapter into the nose of the tool as described on

page 1.Set the rotary hammer/drill lever to rotary hammer.

4. Press the center pin firmly against your center mark, hold

the tool firmly and pull the trigger.

NOTE: Center pins and guide pins are not required for 1”

and 1-1/8” core bits. To make starting these bits easier, use a

template or notched board as shown.

5. After drilling to about the depth of the core bit teeth,

remove the center pin and guide plate from the core bit. Then

resume drilling.

6. After you have finished drilling the hole, hold the tool

upwards, pointing it away from your body as shown, and run

it briefly in forward to loosen the core bit from the adapter.

MILWAUKEE Heavy-Duty Thin Wall Core Bits drill holes up

to 3” deep. To make deeper holes, remove the bit, break and

remove the core. Then resume drilling.
