• Maintain labels and nameplates. These carry 

important information. If unreadable or missing, 
contact a MILWAUKEE service facility for a free 
replacement.

• WARNING Some dust created by power sanding, 

sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction 
activities contains chemicals known to cause 
cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. 
Some examples of these chemicals are:

• lead from lead-based paint
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other 

masonry products, and

• arsenic and chromium from chemically-treated 

lumber.

  Your risk from these exposures varies, depending 

on how often you do this type of work. To reduce 
your exposure to these chemicals: work in a well 
ventilated area, and work with approved safety 
equipment, such as those dust masks that are spe-
cially designed to fi lter out microscopic particles.

Inserting/Removing the Battery
To 

remove the battery, push in the release buttons 

and pull the battery pack away from the tool.
To 

insert the battery, slide the pack into the body 

of the tool. Make sure it latches securely into place.

Inserting the Rod
The piston and rod must match the carriage be-
ing used to avoid possible damage to the tool or 
material. Use only rods and carriages specifi cally 
designed for the M12 Caulk and Adhesive Gun. 
Other rods and carriages may cause damage to 
the tool.
1. Push the control switch to the Rack Release 

position. Remove the battery pack.

2. Grasp the rod handle. The teeth on the rod 

should point down.

3. Insert the rod from the rear of the tool. It may be 

necessary to wiggle the rod slightly while pushing 
it through the tool. Do not run the tool to pull the 
rod through the tool, this will damage the tool 
and rod. 

4. Attach the piston.

NOTE: Keep the piston and rod clean. Retracting 
or inserting a piston that is covered with material 
may damage the internal parts of the tool.
Installing the Carriage or Barrel
Use only rods and carriages specifi cally designed 
for the M12 Caulk and Adhesive Gun. Other rods 
and carriages may cause damage to the tool. 
Place the carriage over the piston and rod. Hold the 
carriage collar securely while screwing the carriage 
into the collar.
