the packaging.
11. When disposing the battery cartridge, remove it
from the tool and dispose of it in a safe place.
Follow your local regulations relating to disposal
of battery.
12. Use the batteries only with the products specified
by Makita. Installing the batteries to non-compliant
products may result in a fire, excessive heat,
explosion, or leak of electrolyte.
13. If the tool is not used for a long period of time, the
battery must be removed from the tool.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION: Only use genuine Makita batteries. Use
of non-genuine Makita batteries, or batteries that have

fires, personal injury and damage. It will also void the
Makita warranty for the Makita tool and charger.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged. Always stop tool operation and
charge the battery cartridge when you notice less
tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10 °C - 40 °C (50 °F - 104 °F). Let a
hot battery cartridge cool down before charging it.

Installing or removing battery cartridge
CAUTION:
• Always switch off the tool before installing or removing
