Can you drill with a Milwaukee impact driver?
Yes, you can use an impact driver.

Can you use regular bits in an impact driver?

Can I use an impact driver as a screwdriver?
Can Impact Drivers Be Used as Screwdrivers? Good news! Impact drivers only accept hex-shaped bits, meaning without an adapter, they can’t be used to drill holes at all. They also provide a higher amount of torque, and are lighter and smaller than drill/drivers, so they drive screws even more efficiently.
Can I use an impact driver for wheel nuts?
Can an Impact Driver Remove Lug Nuts? Yes, technically. You would need to use a hex shaft to square drive adapter in order to attach a lug nut socket to the tool. However, an impact driver may not have enough torque to break loose a lug nut that’s rusted/frozen or over tightened.
