ENGLISH (Original instructions)
The following show the symbols used for the equipment.
Be sure that you understand their meaning before use.
.................... Read instruction manual.
................... Only for EU countries
Do not dispose of electric equipment
or battery pack together with
household waste material!
In observance of European Directive
2002/96/EC on waste electric and
electronic equipment, 2006/66/EC on
batteries and accumulators and
waste batteries and accumulators
and their implementation in
accordance with national laws,
electric equipment and battery pack
that have reached the end of their life
must be collected separately and
returned to an environmentally
compatible recycling facility.
WARNING:
When using electric tools, basic safety precautions should
always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric
shock, and personal injury, including the following:
1. Read this instruction manual and the charger
instruction manual carefully before use.
2. Clean only with dry cloth.
3. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including
amplifiers) that produce heat.
4. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
5. Unplug this apparatus during lighting storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
6. A battery operated radio with integral batteries or a
separate battery pack must be recharged only with the
specified charger for the battery. A charger that may
be suitable for one type of battery may create a risk of
fire when used with another battery.
7. Use battery operated radio only with specifically
designated battery packs. Use of any other batteries
may create a risk of fire.
8. When battery pack is not in use, keep it away from
other metal objects like: paper clips, coins, keys, nails,
screws, or other small metal objects that can make a
connection from one terminal to another. Shorting the
battery terminals together may cause sparks, burns,
or a fire.
9. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as
pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigerators. There is an
increased risk of electric shock if your body is
grounded.
10. Under abusive conditions, liquid may be ejected from
the battery; avoid contact. If contact accidentally
occurs, flush with water. If liquid contacts eyes,
additionally seek medical help. Liquid ejected from the
battery may cause irritation or burns.
11. The MAINS plug is used as the disconnect device,
and it shall remain readily operable.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
1. Before using battery cartridge, read all instructions
and cautionary markings on (1) battery charger, (2)
battery, and (3) product using battery.
2. Do not disassemble battery cartridge.
3. If operating time has become excessively shorter, stop
operating immediately. It may result in a risk of
overheating, possible burns and even an explosion.
4. If electrolyte gets into your eyes, rinse them out with
clear water and seek medical attention right away. It
may result in loss of your eyesight.
5. Do not short the battery cartridge:
(1) Do not touch the terminals with any conductive
material.
(2) Avoid storing battery cartridge in a container with
other metal objects such as nails, coins, etc.
(3) Do not expose battery cartridge to water or rain.
A battery short can cause a large current flow,
overheating, possible burns and even a
breakdown.
A battery short can cause a large current flow,
overheating, possible burns and even a breakdown.
6. Do not store the tool and battery cartridge in locations
where the temperature may reach or exceed 50°C
(122°F).
7. Do not incinerate the battery cartridge even if it is
severely damaged or is completely worn out. The
battery cartridge can explode in a fire.
8. Be careful not to drop or strike battery.
9. Do not use a damaged battery.
10. The contained lithium-ion-batteries are subject to the
Dangerous Goods Legislation requirements. For
commercial transports e.g. by third parties, forwarding
agents, special requirement on packaging and
labeling must be observed.
For preparation of the item being shipped, consulting
an expert for hazardous material is required. Please
also observe possibly more detailed national
regulations.
Tape or mask off open contacts and pack up the
battery in such a manner that it cannot move around in
the packaging.
11. Follow your local regulations relating to disposal of
battery.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR BATTERY CARTRIDGE

6
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
CAUTION: Only use genuine Makita batteries. Use of
non-genuine Makita batteries, or batteries that have been
altered, may result in the battery bursting causing fires,
personal injury and damage. It will also void the Makita
warranty for the Makita tool and charger.
Tips for maintaining maximum battery life
1. Charge the battery cartridge before completely
discharged.
Always stop tool operation and charge the battery
cartridge when you notice less tool power.
2. Never recharge a fully charged battery cartridge.
Overcharging shortens the battery service life.
3. Charge the battery cartridge with room
temperature at 10°C - 40°C (50°F - 104°F). Let a hot
battery cartridge cool down before charging it.
4. Charge the battery cartridge if you do not use it for a
long period (more than six months).

Installing or removing Slide battery
cartridge (Fig. 4 - 6)
CAUTION:
Always switch off the radio before removing the battery
cartridge.

the cartridge does not slide in easily, it is not being
inserted correctly.
• To remove the battery cartridge, slide it from the radio
while sliding the button on the front of the cartridge or
pressing the buttons on both sides of the cartridge.
Return the battery compartment locker to the original
position.
Reduced power, distortion and a “stuttering sound” are
signs that the battery needs to be replaced.
