The first thing you need to do when looking to replace a component in one of your tools is find the exact name and part number. Even two identical-looking parts from similar tools might actually be different sizes or shapes. You want to make sure you’re ordering the precise part that you’re looking to replace so that it will be a perfect fit. This number might be listed in the operator’s manual that came with your tool when you bought it.
No need to worry if you’ve lost or thrown out the manual or if the parts aren’t listed there, though. Milwaukee has a database on its website that can help you find free digital copies of all the documentation for any tools the company manufactures. Simply look up the product number for the tool in question by searching for the tool on Milwaukee’s website (it should look something like this: 3062P-20), and then enter the number into the catalog search bar. Select the category that allows you to specifically search for “service parts lists and wiring instructions.” This will include parts numbers for all of the components associated with your tool.
You may also wish to download the full operator’s manual while you’re there if you don’t already have a copy. It will come in handy when it comes time to actually perform maintenance on your tool, so it’s good to grab that from the database as well.
