Lubrication
0Lubricate the tool every time after replacing carbon brushes.
Run the tool for several minutes to warm it up, then rest the tool on the table with the chuck cover (bit) end pointing toward the ceiling. This will allow the old grease to collect inside the crank housing. After five minutes, take off the crank cap and remove the old grease. Wipe out all grease inside and replace with the fresh supply
(309).

CAUTION:
Filling with more than the specified amount of grease (approx. 30 g; 1 02.) can cause faulty hammering action or a failure. Fill only with the specified amount of grease.
CAUTION:
Do not tighten the crank cap too much, when installing. It is made of resin and is subject to breakage.
Never use the bit grease for lubrication of hammer mechanism.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, any other maintenance and adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
