Milwaukee Gear Case Cover
Model Number: 42-92-0056
The Milwaukee 42-92-0056 Gear Case Cover is a genuine OEM replacement part designed for the Milwaukee 2551-20 M12 FUEL SURGE 1/4 in. Hex Hydraulic Driver, Milwaukee's signature quiet impact driver that uses an internal hydraulic oil drive system to deliver impact driving power at significantly lower noise and vibration levels than conventional impact drivers. Documented in Milwaukee service bulletin 54-26-0005, the gear case cover is the smoke-colored plastic cover that fits over the front of the gear case area, protecting the internal planetary gears, ball bearings, and gear case assembly from dust, debris, and contamination while allowing the tool's integrated LED work light to shine through to illuminate the work area. The smoke tint balances impact protection with the translucent properties needed for the LED illumination feature to work properly.
A cracked, broken, missing, or excessively worn gear case cover exposes the planetary gear train and bearings to dust, dirt, and debris contamination that can shorten the service life of the gear box, while also potentially obscuring or distorting the LED work light output. Replacing the cover with this OEM service part restores correct front-of-tool protection, dust exclusion, and unobstructed LED work light projection. Because Milwaukee Tool specifies replacement parts by both catalog number and serial number, always verify your tool's serial number against the official Milwaukee 2551-20 service parts diagram before ordering, since Milwaukee occasionally implements running production changes that affect part compatibility within the same catalog number. The 42-92-0056 is specific to the 2551-20 M12 FUEL SURGE platform and is NOT interchangeable with the Milwaukee 42-92-0054 Gear Case Cover, which serves a different Milwaukee tool platform despite the similar part number and identical descriptive name. Verify by serial number using Milwaukee's online parts lookup before ordering to confirm correct fitment.
