Bolt Removal Mode: This is a standout feature. It delivers full torque to break a nut loose, then immediately slows down the RPMs so the bolt doesn't fly off once it's free.

A Note on the "88V / M88" Branding
Important: Official Milwaukee tools operate on the M12 (12V) or M18 (18V) platforms. If you see a tool labeled "88V" or "M88," it is often an unofficial or "grey market" version where the battery voltage is labeled higher for marketing purposes. While the tool body may be a genuine Milwaukee design, always ensure you are buying from a reputable source to guarantee the RedLink Plus safety features are active.
