Introduction
If your Milwaukee (6130-33) makes screeching or unusual noises, this guide will provide the steps to replace the gearing system. You will need a TR 20 screwdriver, a TR 10 6mm flathead screwdriver from the Mahi Driver Kit, and a metal spudger for access.
Once the gears are accessed, use a rag remove any slimy substance to inspect the interior and exterior of the gear system. Check for debris and build-up, as the gears are a common place for debris due to usage.
Along with checking the gear system, check that all screws are secured correctly. The interior of the casing is a part of the direct control to the Cut-Off Wheel functioning. Inspect both components thoroughly when testing before testing the device.
