Leo Jimenez yes I use the mode settings they basically reduce the speed and torque of the tool so you have a little bit more control. The number 4 setting starts off slow then speeds up and slows back down as the fastener you're working with I get close to its final to Torque

I've also noticed some models are listed with the prefix MLW. Is it just a matter of the bare tool and various kit configurations? Please forgive my ignorance; I just want to make sure the tool I want is the one I get. I could go to Home Depot, but I have yet to find one that sells the bare tool.

Milwaukee is failing to stand behind the 30 day money back guarantee, and the closest warranty service center expects me to pay shipping both ways to have it serviced. Not impressed with Milwaukee products or customer service.

More than 96% Milwaukee tools are made in China. Milwaukee Tool has carried out tool-design job in China since 2015 year, the design job also is slowly sent /transferred from USA to China. Most plastic materials have been changed from America DuPont, GE to Chinese sources. The red plastic,Nylon,of Milwaukee tool handles/housings has been provided by a Chinese supplier since 2010,originally the Nylons were from DuPont,the Nylons-changeovers caused the handles/housings weak,like screws very likely strapped/slipped in screw holes. Also black hard plastic for battery pack cases/covers,changed from GE ABS/PC to a ABS/PC from a Chinese supplier,caused battery pack case more likely broken, brittle, the same story is happening on anti-flam Nylon material of battery frame,changing from DuPont to a Chinese supplier. Lots of bad tools always first are sold to USA because nobody inspects the outgoing, and because in USA Milwaukee Tool has the strongest warranty service ability than in other countries. During Milwaukee production process, more than 5% defects found out by workers, also more defects failed to be screened out. Bad tools include noise as gear,bearing aligned badly, sometimes press trigger no reactions at all, metal parts like shaft, gear, pinion, important screw broken as poor heat-treat, motor stator rubbing with rotator, fine wire laid inside tool broken as poor design and poor workmanship, big percentage of oil leakage for hydraulic tools, etc. 15% chance you will get a bad tool, bigger chance you will get bad tools for nailer, planer, hydraulic tools, cable/tube cutter, as they are first generation of tools for Milwaukee Tool, because comparing with sawzall, drill, Milwaukee Tool is suck at nailer, planer, hydraulic tools, cable/tube cutter,AC tools, drain cleaner, blower. Milwaukee Tool workers only get less than 300 dollars monthly salary,even plus OT to 276 Hours a month(normal month-workhour is 176 hours,plus 100 hours OT. Chinese law only allows no more than 36 hours OT per month), after OT 100 HOURS for every month,a worker can get 500 dollars monthly salary,this salary very low for living in a big city in China, plus bad working environment(the management has no such safety-first mindset that loud noise but no issuing ear plugs to workers, at dangerous stations very few goggles issued to workers. workers stand more than 10 hours every day during on-duty time), so Milwaukee Tool with huge employee turnover,400% yearly turnover,ie workers averagely work only 3 months for the factory, cause workers without enough experience,lack of training,then unable to ensure good quality. And worse worker- turnover with most Milwaukee Tool’s suppliers. After Milwaukee tools launched one year, Milwaukee Tool will do so-called VE, value engineering ,actually cost-down, change Germany trigger to Hong Kongese trigger even Chinese trigger/switch, change Japanese chuck to Chinese chuck, etc. Milwaukee Tool has a team, 50 persons to do this VE. The quality would obviously become worse after the VE. Milwaukee Tool has really bad quality system, lose much profit because of failing to keep quality constant. And always look for cheap materials, cheap suppliers, worker salary is always at minimum salary, only 30 dollars higher than monthly minimum salary. Milwaukee Tool has less experience for making power tools comparing with Bosch,Dewalt, Makita. Milwaukee Tool only has grew fast from 2008 year. Milwaukee Tool copy and compare life test with Bosch, Dewalt tools during new product development stages, even when doing troubleshooting during R&D, would measure dimensions of these competitors’ components. This company is also an ugly company, in 2014, a Hong Kongese manager tried to rape a female employee during their business trip, the company fired him and less than half year, hired him again as a manager, then the female employee left this company and lost her job. In 2015, in its factory dormitory a more severe rape case really took place by a male senior manager to a girl.
