 M18 Circular Saw delivers 3,500 RPM with magnesium upper and lower guards for maximum durability. View larger. |
Included in the kit is the 2602-20 1/2-inch hammer drill/driver, which is able to drill 20 percent faster in concrete than the competition. It owes its robust performance to a four-pole motor that delivers 550 inch/pounds of peak torque and 29,000 BPM, and it features a variable-speed trigger that provides speed control between 0-1,700 RPM (high speed) and 0-450 RPM (low speed) and an all-metal 1/2-inch single-sleeve ratcheting chuck for bit retention. For added flexibility and long life, this hammer drill/driver has the only metal gear case in its class.
 M18 Cordless Work Light provides a fold-away hook for hands free use. View larger. |
Able to make fast, clean horizontal cuts, the kit's 2630-20 circular saw boasts rough-and-tough magnesium guards for maximum durability and an electronic brake to quickly stop the blade. An aircraft aluminum shoe provides accuracy, while an ergonomic, compact, and lightweight design includes a soft-grip handle for all-day comfort and control.
Finally, the work light included in the kit illuminates your work space. Its compact, ergonomic design combines with a 135-degree rotating head for easy adjustments, while a fold-away utility hook enables both hands-free use and space-saving storage.
 Reliable, long-lasting LITHIUM-ION power is just one part of a full feature set. |
Cordless power frees you from the hassle of extension cords, but a cordless tool is only as reliable as its battery--that's where Milwaukee's M18 XC high-capacity lithium-ion batteries come in. Engineered to deliver torque, speed, and extended runtime, these batteries make use of Milwaukee's trademarked Digital Power Management technology to ensure long battery life. Additionally, overload protection, a temperature management system, and individual cell voltage monitoring guard your battery and your tools during tough jobs.
A convenient power gauge on each battery displays remaining runtime, and a second battery is included with the kit, so you never have to worry about running out of power in the middle of a task. Plus the M18 lithium-ion battery charger is designed to recharge batteries in one hour or less.
Since lithium-ion batteries are significantly smaller and lighter than 18-volt NiCad batteries, they play an integral role in keeping Milwaukee's M18 tools ergonomic and comfortable to use. For added versatility, M18 tools also work with even lighter M18 compact lithium-ion batteries (not included).
Launched in 2008, the M18 series from Milwaukee balances power and ergonomics. M18 tools pack the best-in-class, heavy-duty performance that you expect from Milwaukee into lighter, more compact bodies than those of traditional tools. This translates to improved versatility on the jobsite and reduced user fatigue at the end of the workday.
In 1924 Milwaukee Electric Tool introduced the Hole-Shooter, the first lightweight, portable, one-handed 1/4-inch capacity drill, and the company has been dedicated to producing innovative, heavy-duty electric power tools that meet the needs of professional users ever since.
Milwaukee's product line has grown to include more than 500 tools and over 3,500 accessories. Milwaukee uses state-of-the-art technologies and sophisticated manufacturing techniques to ensure that quality is built into each of its tools, resulting in durable and reliable professional products.
