Makita HR4040C ASSEMBL Y

The green power-ON indicator lamp lights up when the tool is

switched ON. If the indicator lamp is lit but the tool does not

start, the carbon brushes may be worn out, or the electric cir-

cuit or the motor may be defective. If the indicator lamp does

not light up and the tool does not start, the ON/OFF switch or

the mains cord may be defective.

The red service indicator lamp lights up when the carbon

brushes are nearly worn out to indicate that the tool needs

servicing. After approx. 8 hours of use, the motor will auto-

matically be shut off.

ASSEMBLY CAUTION:

•Always be sure that the tool is switched off and

unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

CAUTION:

•Use the side handle only when chipping, scaling or

demolishing. Do not use it when drilling in concrete,

masonry, etc. The tool cannot be held properly with this

side handle when drilling.

The side handle can be swung 360° on the vertical and

secured at any desired position. It also secures at eight dif-

ferent positions back and forth on the horizontal. Just loosen

the clamp nut to swing the side handle to a desired position.

Then tighten the clamp nut securely.

The side grip swings around to either side, allowing easy

handling of the tool in any position. Loosen the side grip by

turning it counterclockwise, swing it to the desired position

and then tighten it by turning clockwise.
