[. . . ] ) Place the wrench 19, adjustable wrench or one of other appropriate wrenches on the hexagonal nut at the front of the drill chuck. To change the speed, turn the speed change knob so that the arrow on the tool body points toward the " I " position on the knob for low speed or " II " position for high speed. If it is hard to turn the knob, first turn the chuck slightly in either direction and then turn the knob again. cAUTION: · Use the speed change knob only after the tool comes to a complete stop. If you operate the tool with the speed change knob positioned halfway between the " I " and " II " position, the tool may be damaged.

There is a tremendous and sudden twisting force exerted on the tool/bit at the time of hole breakthrough, when the hole becomes clogged with chips and particles, or when striking reinforcing rods embedded in the concrete. Always use the side grip (auxiliary handle) and firmly hold the tool by both side grip and switch handle during operations. , move the action mode changing lever to the position of g symbol to use "rotation with hammering" action. Keep the tool in position and prevent it from slipping away from the hole. Do not apply more pressure when the hole becomes clogged with chips or particles. Instead, run the tool at an idle, then remove the bit partially from the hole. By repeating this several times, the hole will be cleaned out and normal drilling may be resumed. Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. 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 circuit 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. [. . . ] When drilling in wood, metal or plastic materials, turn the action mode changing lever to the position of m symbol to use "rotation only" action. Regularly clean the tool's air vents or whenever the vents start to become obstructed. To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, carbon brush inspection and replacement, any other maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
