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. It should be relubri-
cated after every 6 months of operation. Send the complete
tool to Makita Authorized or Factory Service Center for this
lubrication service. However, if circumstances require that
you should lubricate it by yourself, proceed as follows.
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.
Disconnect the two terminals (white and black) by pulling
them.
Remove the crank cap using a hex wrench. Rest the tool on
the table with the bit end pointing upwards. This will allow the
old grease to collect inside the crank housing.
Wipe out the old grease inside and replace with a fresh
grease (60 g; 2 oz). Use only Makita genuine hammer
grease (optional accessory). Filling with more than the spec-
ified amount of grease (approx. 60 g; 2 oz) can cause faulty
hammering action or tool failure. Fill only with the specified
amount of grease.
Reinstall the crank cap and tighten with the hex wrench.
