Milwaukee m12 ratchet issue.

[Harrison2]

I have the 1/4" model and beat on it all day, I give the motor a good blow out every few weeks and squirt of wd. Last week I noticed the directional switch on the back of the head very difficult to turn and even gave that a squirt of wd to which there was no success.

anyone ever had the same issue, im yet to tear it apart simply because I use it all day. but having to use pliers to change the direction is becoming a ball ache.

5 year guarantee. Take it to a service center.

I had the same problem with mine just out of the box. It was alot easier to rotate the socket a little bit while turning the selector in the opposite direction. The ratchet head went to junk last month. Have to send it in. Disappointing because it doesn't have much use on it
