*Note: 1. Initial oil change should be performed after first twenty (20) hours of operation. Thereafter change oil every hundred (100) hours. Before changing oil, check for a suitable way to dispose of old oil. Do not pour it down into sewage drains, onto garden soil or into open streams. Your local zoning or environmental regulations will give you more detailed instructions on proper disposal.
*Note: 2. As to the procedures for these items, please refer to the SERVICE MANUAL or consult your nearest Makita factory or authorized service center.
