Milwaukee M12 FUEL 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Cordless Oscillating Multi-Tool Kit with 4.0 Ah Battery, Charger, Accessories and Tool Bag

Extremely happy. Electrician here, use to cut out boxes in anything. Great tool easy blade change, I dont care what other people have said it is no tool change and quite fast to swap blade. Absolute homerun

The Milwaukee cordless oscillating multi-tool kit comes with a 4.0 Ah Battery, Charger, Accessories and Tool Bag. I have other corded oscillating tools but this tool exceeds the others in the way it accepts accessories (cutting tools), vibration and cutting speed. The tool has a range of speed from 10,000 OPM to 20,000 OPM. It comes with a fuel gauge to tell you the amount of charge left in the battery. When you turn ON the tool the fuel gauge will light up for 2-3 seconds showing the amount of charge in the battery. Typical applications for this tool include sawing/cutting, scraping and sanding. I found this tool to be excellent for cutting in electrical and switch outlets in plaster board. What I like most about this tool is not having an AC cord to plug in or to find an outlet to plug into. When changing accessories make certain that you lift the release level and push it firmly forward over the detent. If not you will not be able to unscrew the accessary bolt to remove or attach accessories.

I also have the standard M12 multi-tool, and I liked it…. But this Fuel version cuts faster, its smoother, feel natural in your hand….and I “like” the quick change tool lever, BUT it would have been nicer to have it work with just flicking the lever, not flick the lever then backing the screw off a few turns…. but I can live with that, since everything else is pretty much perfect….

This is a Christmas gift for my son..He loves all Milwaukee tools!

This new M12 Fuel Multi tool is a beast, it has some serious power, it can’t definitely beat some of the 18/20v models. Vibrations on this new multi tool are low and it’s a big upgrade from the old M12 multi tool and the M18

One of the best things about this oscillating multi-tool is the quick release feature. I find that it is best to force the latch all of the way open to release the blade. The other thing that I like is the magnetic flange that the bolt tightens into. This magnetic flange temporarily holds the blade in place while the bolt is being tightened. This accessory bolt is attracted to the magnetic flange. The battery and charger are interchangeable with the smaller format compact M12 batteries that I have for my other Milwaukee drill motor, impact driver, and battery charger. The sanding pad is bigger than the sanding pads that I have for my old oscillating multi-tool.

This is one of the most useful & versatile tools I use. I used this tool to selectively remove dry rotted 5/8″ thick Cedar siding on my garage outside wall. I put a piece of masking tape on the included cutting blade, at the depth of the siding, so I wouldn’t cut past the siding. I scribed a vertical line on the siding. I set the speed to 12 (max speed). In seconds the blade made a clean, effortless cut through the siding. I also used this oscillating tool to selectively sand off peeling paint on the outside door frame, preparing it for painting. I used 60 grit which removed the peeling paint very quickly. Prepping for painting has never been easier. All the peeling paint was gone in minutes. This package includes grits: 60, 80, 2-120, 240. I also used this tool, with cutting blade attached, to cut a PVC pipe in the field, at my farm. It made quick easy work of fixing a broken water line. There are a lot of features on this tool. The headlite is VERY handy & appreciated, by my aging eyes. The remaining battery power indicator lightes clearly show when a recharge is needed, before I start the next project. The speeds range from 1-slow to 12-very fast. Wondering which speed to use for a project was easily determined by adjusting the speed, as the tool was running, to see how it performed on the task. The M12 battery never failed to provide all the power I needed & recharged in minutes. I LOVE the super quick blade changing design. I simply raised the quick release lever, which loosens the retaining bolt, made a couple turns on the bolt & removed the blade. A GREAT detail is the magnetic adapter head. Once a new blade is seated on the magnetic adapter head the magnetic head HELD the blade in place till the bolt was hand tightened & the quick release lever was closed. Most of the tool has a non slip rubber like coating, is perfectly balanced & comfortable to hold & work with. It immediately reaches working speed. It includes: a heavy duty carrying case, operating manuals for the oscillating tool, battery & charger. This is a highest quality tool.

Amazing tool. Had the original 18V and this tool is better. Can not wait to get the 18V fuel version.

Nice oscillating saw. I have a corded Fein, a cordless Ryobi and an old HF Chicago electric. I decided to try cutting the same piece of scrap with the same blade in all of them and see if there was a difference in speed. I first tried a 1×2 but the Milwaukee cut it so fast I decided to try something bigger. So I cut a 2×4 scrap. That took about 15 seconds with this Milwaukee and the corded Fein. It took at least twice as long as the Ryobi and the HF took well over a minute. The HF and Ryobi would bog down but the Milwaukee and Fein just sailed through the cut. This tool also has a tool less blade change that works pretty well but I like the Fein a little better. They are similar with a top handle you pivot to unlock the jaw but the Fein just pulls out, you have to unthread the Milwaukee. But it doesn’t take long and I could do it with my fingers. The Milwaukee also has 6 little protrusions to hold the blade and the others had only 4. The Milwaukee is also the only one with magnets to hold the blade until you get it fastened down. I then cut a hole for an electrical box with the Milwaukee and it did it well. The hole was in half inch plywood. It is a good tool. To have power comparable to a corded Fein in a cordless is saying something – and it’s only 12V. Good tool.

Extremely easy to use. Fast interchange pieces that are very solid even though this piece is small it pulls “Big Punch”. A definite win for me
