(For All Tools)

WARNING:

Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Work Area

1.Keep your work area clean and well lit.

Cluttered benches and dark areas invite acci- dents.

2.Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

3.Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distrac- tions can cause you to lose control.

Electrical Safety

4.Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified elec- trician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insula-

tion eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.

5.Avoid body contact with grounded sur- faces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your body is grounded.

6.Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

7.Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

8.When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked ???W-A??? or ???W???. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

Personal Safety

9.Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

10.Dress properly. Do not wear loose cloth- ing or jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts.

11.Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

12.Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury.

13.Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations.

14.Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT eye protection.

Tool Use and Care

15.Use clamps or other practical way to secure and support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control.

16.Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

17.Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

18.Disconnect the plug from the power source before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool.

Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally.

19.Store idle tools out of reach of children and other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

20.Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control.

21.Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool ser- viced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools.

22.Use only accessories that are recom- mended by the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

SERVICE

23.Tool service must be performed only by qualified repair personnel. Service or main- tenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage num- ber, the heavier the cord.

Table 1: Minimum gage for cord

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to hammer safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer seri- ous personal injury.

1.Hold tools by insulated gripping surfaces when performing an operation where the cutting tool may contact hidden wiring or its own cord. Contact with a ???live??? wire will make exposed metal parts of the tool ???live??? and shock the operator.

2.Wear ear protectors when using the tool for extended periods. Prolonged exposure to high intensity noise can cause hearing loss.

3.Wear a hard hat (safety helmet), safety glasses and/or face shield. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT safety glasses. It

is also highly recommended that you wear a dust mask and thickly padded gloves.

4.Be sure the bit is secured in place before operation.

5.Under normal operation, the tool is designed to produce vibration. The screws can come loose easily, causing a breakdown or accident. Check tightness of screws carefully before operation.

6.In cold weather or when the tool has not been used for a long time, let the tool warm up for a while by operating it under no load. This will loosen up the lubrica-

tion. Without proper warm-up, hammering operation is difficult.

7.Always be sure you have a firm footing. Be sure no one is below when using the tool in high locations.

8.Hold the tool firmly with both hands.

9.Keep hands away from moving parts.

10.Do not leave the tool running. Operate the tool only when hand-held.

11.Do not point the tool at any one in the area when operating. The bit could fly out and injure someone seriously.

12.Do not touch the bit or parts close to the bit immediately after operation; they may be extremely hot and could burn your skin.

13.Some material contains chemicals which may be toxic. Take caution to prevent dust inhalation and skin contact. Follow mate- rial supplier safety data.

Lubrication

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.

First, switch off and unplug the tool.

Remove the plate 50 using a screwdriver, then replenish with fresh grease (30 g; 1 oz). Use only Makita genuine hammer grease (optional accessory). Filling with more than the speci- fied amount of grease (approx. 30 g; 1 oz) can cause faulty hammering action or tool failure. Fill only with the specified amount of grease.

Reinstall the plate 50 and secure with the screws.

To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, any other maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
