• To remove the battery cartridge, withdraw it from the tool while pressing the buttons on both sides of the
• To insert the battery cartridge, align the tongue on the battery cartridge with the groove in the housing and slip it into place. Always insert it all the way until it locks in place with a little click. If not, it may accidentally fall out of the tool, causing injury to you or someone around
• Do not use force when inserting the battery cartridge. If the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being inserted correctly

Switch action

 CAUTION:

• Before inserting the battery cartridge into the tool, always check to see that the switch trigger actuates properly and returns to the “OFF” position when
  To start the tool, simply pull the switch trigger. Tool speed is increased by increasing pressure on the switch trigger. Release the switch trigger to stop.

Electric brake

This tool is equipped with an electric brake. If the tool consis- tently fails to quickly stop after switch trigger release, have tool serviced at a Makita service center.

Reversing switch action

This tool has a reversing switch to change the direction of rotation. Depress the reversing switch lever from the A side for clockwise rotation or from the B side for counterclockwise rotation.
When the reversing switch lever is in the neutral position, the switch trigger cannot be pulled.

 CAUTION:

• Always check the direction of rotation before
• Use the reversing switch only after the tool comes to a complete stop. Changing the direction of rotation before the tool stops may damage the tool.
• When not operating the tool, always set the reversing switch lever to the neutral position.

Speed change

To change the speed, first switch off the tool and then slide the speed change lever to the “2” side for high speed or “1” side for low speed. Be sure that the speed change lever is set to the correct position before operation. Use the right speed for your job.

 CAUTION:

• Always set the speed change lever fully to the correct position. If you operate the tool with the speed change lever positioned halfway between the “1” side and “2” side, the tool may be damaged.
• Do not use the speed change lever while the tool is running. The tool may be damaged.

Adjusting the fastening torque

The fastening torque can be adjusted in 17 steps by turning the adjusting ring so that its graduations are aligned with the pointer on the tool body. The fastening torque is minimum when the number 1 is aligned with the pointer, and maximum when the  marking is aligned with the pointer.
The clutch will slip at various torque levels when set at the number 1 to 16. The clutch is designed not to slip at the  marking.
Before actual operation, drive a trial screw into your material

or a piece of duplicate material to determine which torque level is required for a particular application.

NOTE:

• The adjusting ring does not lock when the pointer is positioned only halfway between the graduations.
• Do not operate the tool with the adjusting ring set between the number 16 and the The tool may be damaged.

ASSEMBLY

Installing or removing driver bit or drill bit

Hold the ring and turn the sleeve counterclockwise to open the chuck jaws. Place the bit in the chuck as far as it will go. Hold the ring firmly and turn the sleeve clockwise to tighten the chuck.
To remove the bit, hold the ring and turn the sleeve counter- clockwise.

OPERATION

Screwdriving operation

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.

 CAUTION:

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

NOTE:

• When driving wood screws, predrill pilot holes to make driving easier and to prevent splitting of the workpiece. See the chart.

Drilling operation

First, turn the adjusting ring so that the pointer points to the  marking. Then proceed as follows.
rilling 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 bit into the workpiece.
Drilling in metal
To prevent the 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 bit in the indentation and start drilling.
Use a cutting lubricant when drilling metals. The exceptions 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 bit, decrease the tool performance and shorten the service life of the tool.
• There is a tremendous force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole break Hold the tool firmly and exert care when the bit begins to break through the workpiece.
• A stuck 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.
• Always secure small workpieces in a vise or similar hold- down device.
• 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.
