Milwaukee® introduces Compact Vacuum

Words: Katherine O'tooleMilwaukee Tool expands its industry leading M12™ System with the introduction of a portable vacuum that delivers unmatched power for the removal of wood, metal and other common debris. The M12™ Compact Vacuum (0850-20) utilizes a high efficiency motor and REDLITHIUM™ battery technology to deliver up 29 minutes of continuous run time on a single charge, with the XC4.0 battery. Fully equipped with three versatile attachments, the vacuum makes jobsite cleanup quick and easy.

“Job site cleanup can be a very time-consuming process. The M12™ Compact Vacuum is a portable solution to help our users be more productive,” said Tom Simeone, Director of Product Marketing, Milwaukee Tool. “Compact enough to fit a contractor bag, this vacuum was designed with the size, performance and versatility to clean anywhere.”

The M12™ Compact Vacuum comes with three accessories to complete numerous clean up jobs, whether small or large. Included are a crevice tool that gives the user access into tight spots, a utility nozzle for larger surface area clean up, and an extension wand allows users to extend their reach and use the vacuum while standing. The vacuum also has a 1-¼” universal connection to fit most standard vacuum attachments.

A clear viewing window allows for easy identification of the capacity level in the 20 oz. canister. In addition, a canister lock maintains a tight seal to prevent against debris falling out. The Vacuum also features a reusable 42-pleat filter.

The M12™ Compact Vacuum is compatible with the entire M12™ System, now offering over 70 cordless Lithium-Ion products. The M12™ platform is the largest sub-compact system in the industry, offering innovative portable solutions.
