Milwaukee M18 FUEL 2745-20 30 Degree Framing Nailer (Tool Only)

What's in the Box: Milwaukee M18 FUEL 2745-20 Framing Nailer

This nailer is sold tool only, without a battery or charger. Here is what's included in the box.

Included with your order:

• 1x Milwaukee 2745-20 framing nailer: POWERSTATE brushless motor and REDLINK intelligence, 30 degree.
• Rafter hook: to hang the tool up high on the jobsite.
• Belt hook: keeps the tool within reach between uses.
• Onboard hex keys: stored right on the tool for jobsite adjustments.

Advantages of the Milwaukee Framing Nailer

• No gas cartridges: runs on sealed compressed nitrogen, eliminating a recurring cost.
• Instant firing: 3 nails per second with zero ramp-up time.
• Power for engineered lumber: drives round-head nails into dense materials.
• Two firing modes: sequential for precision, contact for speed.

Recommended Complementary Accessories

Since this nailer is sold tool only, here is what you need to get it running.

• Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM XC 5.0 Ah battery: the capacity Milwaukee recommends for this nailer, sold separately.
• Milwaukee M18/M12 charger: to recharge your battery between jobsite days, sold separately.
• Dynamic EP850C safety glasses: eye protection recommended when operating a nailer, sold separately.

First Use

Before firing your first nail, prepare the nailer with these steps.

1. Install the battery: insert a charged Milwaukee M18 REDLITHIUM battery until it clicks into place.
2. Load the magazine: insert a compatible strip of round-head nails and push it until the pusher engages.
3. Choose the firing mode: select sequential mode for precision or contact mode for speed.
4. Adjust the depth: test on scrap wood and adjust the tool-free dial to the desired depth.

Regular Maintenance

A few simple habits extend the nailer's lifespan.

After each use:

• Remove the battery and any remaining nail strip.
• Wipe sawdust and dust from around the magazine and contact tip.
• Check that the belt hook and rafter hook are securely attached.

Battery management:

• Rotate two batteries on a jobsite to avoid charging downtime.
• Do not leave the battery on the tool during long periods of inactivity.

Safety Precautions

For your safety:

• Wear safety glasses and hearing protection at all times.
• Keep your finger off the trigger when moving between shots.
• Remove the battery before clearing a jammed nail from the magazine.
• Never point the tool at yourself or another person, loaded or not.
• Use sequential mode in tight spaces where precision matters more than speed.

Storage Tips

General storage:

• Store the nailer in a dry, dust-free place.
• Remove the battery and store it separately for long-term storage.

Winter storage in Quebec:

• Avoid leaving the battery in an unheated vehicle overnight, cold reduces its runtime.
• Let the tool and battery return to room temperature before resuming work.
