Cordless hammer driver drill safety  warnings

Safety instructions for all operations

1. Wear ear protectors when impact drilling. Exposure to noise can cause hearing loss.

2. Hold the power tool by insulated gripping  surfaces, when performing an operation where  the cutting accessory or fasteners may contact  hidden wiring. Cutting accessory or fasteners  contacting a “live” wire may make exposed metal  parts of the power tool “live” and could give the  operator an electric shock.

3. Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be  sure no one is below when using the tool in  high locations.

4.  Hold the tool firmly.

5. Keep hands away from rotating parts. 6. Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool  only when hand-held.

7. Do not touch the drill bit, the workpiece or  chips immediately after operation; they may be  extremely hot and could burn your skin.

8. Some material contains chemicals which may  be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhala tion and skin contact. Follow material supplier  safety data.

9. If the drill bit cannot be loosened even you  open the jaws, use pliers to pull it out. In such a  case, pulling out the drill bit by hand may result in injury by its sharp edge.

10. Make sure there are no electrical cables, water  pipes, gas pipes etc. that could cause a hazard  if damaged by use of the tool.

Safety instructions when using long drill bits 1. Never operate at higher speed than the max imum speed rating of the drill bit. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting  in personal injury.

2. Always start drilling at low speed and with the  bit tip in contact with the workpiece. At higher speeds, the bit is likely to bend if allowed to rotate freely without contacting the workpiece, resulting  in personal injury.

3. Apply pressure only in direct line with the bit  and do not apply excessive pressure. Bits can  bend causing breakage or loss of control, resulting in personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

WARNING: DO NOT let comfort or familiarity  with product (gained from repeated use) replace  strict adherence to safety rules for the subject  product. MISUSE or failure to follow the safety  rules stated in this instruction manual may cause  serious personal injury.

Turn the sleeve counterclockwise to open the chuck  jaws. Place the driver bit/drill bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Turn the sleeve clockwise to tighten the  chuck. To remove the driver bit/drill bit, turn the sleeve counterclockwise.

Installing hook

WARNING: Use the hanging/mounting parts  for their intended purposes only, e.g., hanging the  tool on a tool belt between jobs or work intervals.

WARNING: Be careful not to overload the  hook as too much force or irregular overburden  may cause damages to the tool resulting in per sonal injury.

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.

CAUTION: Make sure to hang the tool  securely before releasing your hold. Insufficient or unbalanced hooking may cause falling off and you may be injured.

8 ENGLISH

► Fig.10: 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.

Using hole

WARNING: Never use the hanging hole for  unintended purpose, for instance, tethering the  tool at high location. Bearing stress in a heavily  loaded hole may cause damages to the hole, result ing in injuries to you or people around or below you.

► Fig.11: 1. Hanging hole

Use the hanging hole at the bottom rear of the tool to hang the tool on a wall using a hanging cord or similar  strings.

Installing driver bit holder

Optional accessory

► Fig.12: 1. Driver bit holder 2. Driver bit

Fit the driver bit holder into the protrusion at the tool foot on either right or left side and secure it with a screw. When not using the driver bit, keep it in the driver bit holders. Driver bits 45 mm-long can be kept there.

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.

Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the grip and the other hand on the bottom of the battery cartridge to control the twisting action.

► Fig.13

NOTICE: Do not cover vents, or it may cause over heating and damage to the tool.

► Fig.14: 1. Vent

Screwdriving operation

CAUTION: Adjust the adjusting ring to the  proper torque level for your work.

CAUTION: Make sure that the driver bit is  inserted straight in the screw head, or the screw  and/or driver bit may be damaged.

First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the  arrow on the tool body points to the marking. Place the point of the driver bit in the screw head and apply pressure to the tool. Start the tool slowly and then  increase the speed gradually. Release the switch trigger  as soon as the clutch cuts in.

NOTE: When driving wood screw, pre-drill a pilot hole  2/3 the diameter of the screw. It makes driving easier and prevents splitting of the workpiece.

Hammer drilling operation

CAUTION: There is a tremendous and sud den twisting force exerted on the tool/drill bit  at the time of hole breakthrough, when the hole  becomes clogged with chips and particles, or  when striking reinforcing rods embedded in the  concrete.

First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the  arrow on the tool body points to the marking. The  adjusting ring can be aligned in any torque levels for this operation.

Be sure to use a tungsten-carbide tipped drill bit. Position the drill bit at the desired location for the hole, then pull the switch trigger. Do not force the tool. Light  pressure gives best results. Keep the tool in position and prevent it from slipping away from the hole. Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at  an idle, then remove the drill bit partially from the hole. By repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out and normal drilling may be resumed.

Blow-out bulb

Optional accessory

► Fig.15: 1. Blow-out bulb

After drilling the hole, use the blow-out bulb to clean the dust out of the hole.

Drilling operation

First, turn the action mode changing ring so that the  arrow points to the marking. Then proceed as  follows.

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.

9 ENGLISH

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.
