Installing hook
CAUTION:
When installing the hook, always
secure it with the screw firmly. If not, the hook may
come off from the tool and result in the personal injury.
► Fig.9: 1. Groove 2. Hook 3. Screw
The hook is convenient for temporarily hanging the tool. This can
be installed on either side of the tool. To install the hook, insert it
into a groove in the tool housing on either side and then secure it
with a screw. To remove, loosen the screw and then take it out.
OPERATION
CAUTION:
Always insert the battery cartridge all the
way until it locks in place. If you can see the red indicator on the
upper side of the button, it is not locked completely. Insert it fully
until the red indicator cannot be seen. If not, it may accidentally fall
out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around you.
CAUTION:
When the speed comes down extremely,
reduce the load or stop the tool to avoid the tool damage.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly with one hand
on the gripping part of the tool and the other hand
on the side grip when performing the tool.

Drilling operation

Drilling in wood
When drilling in wood, the best results are obtained with wood
drills equipped with a guide screw. The guide screw makes
drilling easier by pulling the drill bit into the workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the drill bit from slipping when starting a hole, make an
indentation with a center-punch and hammer at the point to be drilled.
Place the point of the drill bit in the indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The excep-
tions are iron and brass which should be drilled dry.
CAUTION:
Pressing excessively on the tool will
not speed up the drilling. In fact, this excessive pressure
will only serve to damage the tip of your drill bit, decrease
the tool performance and shorten the service life of the tool.
CAUTION:
Hold the tool firmly and exert care
when the drill bit begins to break through the
workpiece. There is a tremendous force exerted on
the tool/drill bit at the time of hole break through.
CAUTION:
A stuck drill bit can be removed
simply by setting the reversing switch to reverse
rotation in order to back out. However, the tool
may back out abruptly if you do not hold it firmly.
CAUTION:
Always secure workpieces in a
vise or similar hold-down device.
CAUTION:
If the tool is operated continuously until
the battery cartridge has discharged, allow the tool to rest
for 15 minutes before proceeding with a fresh battery.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
Always be sure that the tool is
switched off and the battery cartridge is removed
before attempting to perform inspection or
maintenance.
NOTICE:
Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner,
alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or
cracks may result.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY,
repairs, any other maintenance or adjustment should
be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service
Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
