MAINTENANCE

CAUTION:

Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.

Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.

Lubrication

CAUTION:

This servicing should be performed by Makita

Authorized or Factory Service Centers only.

This tool requires no hourly or daily lubrication because it has a grease-packed lubrication system. However, it is recommended to periodically replace the grease for longer tool life.

Run the tool for several minutes to warm it up. Switch off and unplug the tool.

Loosen the six screws and remove the handle. Note that the top screws are different from other screws.

The bit can be secured at 12 different angles. To change the bit angle, slide the change ring forward, then turn the change ring to change the bit angle. At the desired angle, slide the change ring back to the original position. The bit will be secured in place.
